Favourite Quotations: Come, my friends,
'Tis not too late to seek a newer world.
[..] We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are;
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
(Ulysses, Tennyson)
About Me:
Hi there! My name's Aaron and I'm a newly minted lawyer based in London. I am hoping to specialize in cases dealing with human rights legislation, having spent my time before training volunteering at various charitable organisations and pressure groups where I’ve seen just what a difference it makes when someone actually makes an effort to try to help other people. I’ve recently moved from good ol’ Manchester to London town and feeling a bit overwhelmed about it all to be honest… if you see me with a slightly spaced-out look, that’s why.

That time Aaron played Fiyero in ‘Wicked’ and fully went for it, working that pole on-stage and practically being a ballerina in Dancing Through Life. Yeah, you shake that booty, A-Man. XD Aka: the time Aaron wishes I didn’t take photos of him performing ‘for posterity’s sake’, HA!

The casual summer baseball season I participate in has started up again, we were one player short, the cousin stepped up to the plate, literally, having not played before. Surprise, surprise, it turns out he's a natural and yeah he's a gazelle when he runs. Fuck you, Clarke, y'know it's getting really irritating that you're just good at stuff.
