I am creative, stylish, and empathetic.

My Self-Summary

Basically, I'm currently working on a Bachelor of Arts at the University of Melbourne, majoring in Political Science. It's interesting, but I'm not sure if it's really what I want to do. Journalism might be more my thing, but I'm not sure. Or maybe psychology, or teaching, or law, or... So, I've been taking a wide range of subjects.

I live in a small country town (yeah, I was affected by the bushfires), and it's rather frustrating being so isolated from just about everyone else in the world. I'm only about an hour from Melbourne, but people generally seem to think it's much further. One of the big reasons I made this profile, actually. If I'm not there then I'm usually down in Sandringham.

I love music, and it doesn't really matter what it is. In my collection you'll find stuff ranging from Lacuna Coil, to Paramore. Or Nickelback to Edguy. Within Temptation and Sirenia next to Disturbed, Breaking Benjamin and 30 Seconds to Mars. I've also started getting into bands like MGMT, Cobra Starship and the like.

As for TV, I don't watch a lot of it. The only series I've really watched in the past few years have been Heroes and Battlestar Galactica. I think I'm a bit like Peter Petrelli or Lee Adama to be honest.

I read quite a bit, one of my favorite books being John Dies At The End. It's a great read and the characters of John and Dave are oddly similar to myself and my best mate. I read basically anything I can get my hands on, no matter what it is. I think Adam Cadre is a really good writer. Photopia was an amazing work.

I used to act, but it's been a while since I did that... I also like to write, I've got a creative side that comes and goes in energetic bursts.

As for other active things, I'm pretty good at long-distance running and other things that generally rely on endurance. I also love the beach. However, I have not been to the beach in a while...

I'm a fan of strange, surreal comedy like Tom Goes to the Mayor, Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job, Dinosaur Comics or Aqua Teen Hunger Force. But I also love comedy styled like Red Dwarf and Monty Python. I just like to laugh and relax. Nothing is so serious that it can't be joked about eventually.

And if anyone here takes personality types into consideration, I'm apparently an INFJ.

What I’m doing with my life

University at the moment (Arts Degree: Political Studies at Melbourne), but I'm thinking of maybe going into Journalism, and struggling to find a job.

I’m really good at

Writing and cooking. I love to cook and like to think I can cook pretty well but, more importantly, I can cook a wide range of meals and things. Similarly, I love to write but most of the time I'm just writing boring Uni essays... I like to think I'm good at dancing (maybe). I think I sing well, but I probably strip paint off walls.

On a less serious note, I can rock out on Guitar Hero haha.

And I PROcrastinate my studies a lot...

The first things people usually notice about me

Well, from what I can tell people tend to think I'm emo or goth because of my hair. It's not my fault that's how it naturally parts. Maybe my build? I have an incredibly fast metabolism. Black leather jacket?

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Books : John Dies At The End, World War Z, Every Sigh The End.
Movies: The Crow, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
Music : Edguy, Lacuna Coil, Disturbed, Breaking Benjamin etc.
Food : Chocolate. Pasta is good too.

The six things I could never do without

Other people. Being alone is boring and drives me insane. Of course, that's not to say I'm a social butterfly.
Music. I can't imagine a life without it. My iPod goes where ever I go, just in case I get bored.
Water? Food? Conscious thought?

I spend a lot of time thinking about

My life and where I'm going. I don't really have an answer yet. I'm pretty introspective and can think for a loooong time.

On a typical Friday night I am

Usually I'm at home. That's not to say I don't go out, just that it's usually earlier on in the week or on Saturday. Friday tends to be a quiet night...

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

These things are always more interesting discussed in person. Not that I keep secrets, but if I'm not about to lay out my whole life here...

Here's one thing though, when I smile I get uneven dimples. I don't really smile a lot in photos because it makes my face look really odd.

You should message me if

You wish to dispel the myth that girls don't message people on OKcupid.
