I am concupiscent, geeky, and self indulgent.
My Self-Summary
I'm very relaxed and easy going. I don't have a 5 yr plan =P
Basically I'm just taking life year by year. I recently turned 25
and I want the next 10 years of my life to be filled with
awesomeness ^_^
I'm interested in people. Why they think the things they do, do the
things they do, what makes them so different to other people, what
their flaws are, what makes them beautiful... I also love ellipses.
I use them at outrageously innapropriate intervals. But meh
=P
I'm not highly ambitious or competetive. Well. Not most of the time
=P I do break into a fit of internal shouting (as external shouting
on the train is generally looked down up) when that damn Princess
Peach kicks my arse at the very last second in Mario Kart DS. I'll
get you one day, Princess Peach! And your little dog too! Oh
wait... wrong quote. However, I think people misunderstand what not
being competetive means to me though. It doesn't mean that I don't
put any effort into things or accept challenges. It just means that
I don't seek higher status, power or positions and that my approach
to getting what I want out of life is relaxed rather than rigidly
planned.
One of my pet peeves is bad grammar and spelling. It doesn't have
to be perfect. I mean, I am a sucky speller. Just not horridly
disgusting. "Your hot" would be a good example of horridly
disgusting. Unless of course the sentence continues to "Your hotdog
was delicious". Then it is yummy ^_^ Mmm... hotdogs. They should be
disgusting but they aren't...
I think I'm a fun person, but in a geeky way =P I like flirting for
the wordplay involved. ^_^ I like reading. I like talking about
interesting things. Religion is one of those interests although I
am not religious myself. I want to do a castle tour of Europe. I
want to eat food in Italy. I want to see historic things in Greece.
I play the DS on the train. I am a recent convert of Munchkin. I
also like doing crafty things like scrapbooking or sewing (my
sewing skills need improvement though!) and I enjoy learning to
cook new things. If you have any simple, quick and yummy recipes
including lots of veggies, feel free to pass them on to me. I'm
always on the lookout for ways to eat more veggies.
I'm not interested in risky things like extreme sports and stuff
like that. Actually, okcupid has correctly discovered that I'm not
very interested in sport in general. Love Wii Sports though! 5
strikes in a row! Go me! ^_^ Actually, I like watching some sports
=) I loved "so you think you can dance" but I don't know if most
people consider dancing a sport. But it should be!
What I’m doing with my life
I'm currently working on Market Research (no, not one of those
people that call you up and ask if you want to do a survey =P). I
like my work, but I don't love it. I'm looking for something I
love.
I'm pretty new to this working full time thing, having only done it
for a few months. The money is nice. The working 5 days a week is
not. Three days a week would be nice =P
I'm also considering starting up some dance classes or something. I
generally like the latin styles and swing, ceroc etc. Anyone have
any suggestions about good places to go in Sydney?
I’m really good at
I'm the Queen of
Procrastination (and the
Princess of laziness) ;)
I also consider myself a kick arse cookie maker. Brownies are my
specialty. Ask for my recipe ^_^
I'm also really good at not being bored. People seem to be amazed
that I survived for a year without working and uni. I honestly
don't understand why they are so surprised because there is HEAPS
of stuff to do!!!
The first things people usually notice about me
Apparently I am very short. I disagree. However, I am told that it
is cute, so I don't disagree too much ^_^
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
a) How about authors instead of books?
Isobelle Carmody,
Terry Pratchett,
Robin Hobb,
Douglas
Adams,
Robert Rankin,
Garth Nix,
Jane Austen,
Neil Gaiman... ummm.. many more! I
generally go for Fantasy. I also love my childhood books...
Madeline L'Engle, The Narnia Chronicles, Anderson, Brothers Grimm
etc. I have a facination with mythology and fairytales (especially
with modern twists!) Also I am an unashamed fanfic addict =P
b) Movies... the problem with listing movies is that you always
forget some. So, here is a list of movies/t.v shows that I like and
currently occur to me: House (Hugh Laurie... you are a genius),
most things with Johnny Depp in them, Eternal Sunshine of the
Spotless Mind, Big Fish, The Wizard of Oz, Pan's Labyrinth, the
Princess Bride, Love Actually, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, Monty Python
and the Holy Grail, Black Books, FireFly, Buffy, Angel, Yakitate
Japan (anime), So you think you can Dance and yeah... that is what
occurs to me right now =P Oh, also, I'm a Alan Rickman and Helena
Bonham Carter fangirl =P
Update: Well, after people bugging me for ages to watch Doctor Who
(the new ones) I finally relented and... I LOVE it! The Doctor is
wonderful ^_^
c) I'm not a big music person and can never remember the names of
songs and people singing them =P I tend to collect song
recommendations from friends so please feel free to make
suggestions. For some odd reason I've had 'Whistling in the Dark'
by They Might be Giants in my head for the last few days...
d) Mmmm... yummy foods!!! ^_^ So many to choose from... Here is a
rough list of things I like: Thai, Indian, Japanese (especially
sashimi), Italian, Macedonian Feta, olives, lemon, COOKIES,
chocolate, broccoli, mushrooms, tomatoes, peanut butter,
cheesecake, cheese of any kind really and I'm going to stop now
before I make myself hungry =P
The six things I could never do without
Friends and Family
Books
Net and computer
Words (cause they be smexy)
NZ icecream thickshakes (Or whatever food/drink I'm currently
obsessed with
Stories
I spend a lot of time thinking about
I spend a lot of time daydreaming. About things in this world and
things that don't really belong to this world. Sometimes I think I
spend too much time living in my head. However, the result is that
I am quite imaginative *wink wink, nudge nudge*
But my main interest is people. I'm curious about humans. I think
about them. I like trying to work them out.
On a typical Friday night I am
Netting? Lol! Basically just bludging ^_^
Everyone: And that is different to what you do every day,
HOW??
Me: It is special friday night bludginess ^_^
