I'm easily bored, restless and un-willing to accept mediocrity. I'm
also happy, like to see the glass half full and always looking for
the next adventure.
I LOVE...
sleep,
music, the sound of
high heels on concrete, my bed, the
blues,
boys (especially ones with dark hair who
play
guitar
although they're more trouble than they're worth!) the sound of a
muted
trumpet,
cooking, my
parents and my brother, knee high socks/boots,
soul,
plum blossom trees, my
bass guitar,
making fun of Orlando Bloom, home made roast pumpkin risotto,
Marilyn
Monroe, my house, the sound of the sea on a calm night, my cat
Amy, kissing, movies by
Hitchcock ,
Jean Pierre Jeunet,
Robert Rodriguez,
Quentin
Tarantino and
Woody Allen, driving my car on hot
summer days with the windows down while listening to good music
really loudly, bossing people around,
1950's movies, my mates, the
first few days of falling in
love, perfection, my gorgeous
labrador Darth and his brother Remmy,
rainy days at
circular quay... oh and I've just started
yoga... and think it could be the beginning
of a beautiful friendship :)
I DON'T LIKE... couscous, boys who a) tell me what to do, b) have
girlfriends, c) are un-able to look a girl in the eyes instead of
staring at her breasts; being woken up by workmen/ garbage men/
newspaper men/ annoying neighbours/annoying house guests, jeans
that don't come in size 13, hot lettuce (why, oh WHY do they put
lettuce on burgers!!), ignorance, marriage and people who don't
watch their kids when they're near the road.
no idea... maybe how long my hair is
