hi im matt aged 8.
For those who dont know, thats my real name....
Anyhoo, i couldnt think of anything interesting for my journal so i thought id let you in on the event that makes me the 'off-centre' dude i am. And before i tell you this story, it is true, ok. so stop the internal dialogue after you read it ok?
anyway, the reason i seem a wee bit weird is because aged 5 (i think, my family tend not to talk about it much), i came downstairs from my room late one night to see the family around the tv, watching a video (we had just got a vcr), i went to inspect what they were watching, it was michael jackson's video 'Thriller' (the one where he becomes a zombie), now the site of seeing at the time one of my favourite pop stars 'undead' scared me so much that i began to convulse on the floor.
i went into my own little world for the next 12 months, i rarely spoke and when i did i stuttered uncontrollably. after a few years of speech therapy and counselling, i managed to get back on track, and became the class clown i am now. i always wondered how differently i would have turned out had i have not seen that film, i guess ill never know.
True story.

i gavce up going to the tiolet ofr a long time when i was 6. my mom get out a film called crocodile and i was frwaked out about crocodiles in the sewers. of course, i lived in new zealand and not new york, so in hindsight it was a really dumb phobia...
