I am literate, thoughtful, and silly.
My Self-Summary
I don't really feel like people can be summarized so easily, but
here I go anyway. I'm very mercurial, so it's especially difficult
for me to nail something down here, because tommorrow I will look
at it and hate it. I didn't like the questions on the OK Cupid test
because they were so black and white- no room for subtlety. I am a
terrible
book &
music nerd, but I
don't look like one. I can be too serious but I'm trying hard to
stop, acting like a dumb blonde sometimes helps.
What I’m doing with my life
I go to UQ to hang out with my friends, eat at pizza caffe and
visit the lolly shop. I also occasionally attend arts & science
lectures.
I love learning but don't really enjoy the format it happens in at
university, except for tutorials. If I could spend my whole
university career discussing things with my peers instead of
listening to some septuagenarian drone on about them, I'd go to uni
all the time.
I also tutor school students to fund my
pizza and lolly binges, and also so that I
don't spend so much time at home on the internet.
I’m really good at
Trivial
Pursuit (I never lose!), typing (even when drunk!), sleeping
(like the dead), going to
concerts, reading, talking, dancing,
appearing less intelligent than I am, cooking, writing, lazing.
The first things people usually notice about me
My hair, my eyes, my hands/nails, that I am 'really small'. I don't
think I'm -that- small, because I know people smaller, but hey,
it's all about perspective.

best. I will be very sad when he dies.
The six things I could never do without
My bed, books, my computer, the internet, food, water...oh oh,
should be oxygen there too, huh?
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Myself- I'm pretty introspective when alone... otherwise I'm
probably thinking about food, sleep, writing or seeing my
friends...cause you know, those are the things I like to do.
On a typical Friday night I am
Probably evenly divided between at home, at a friend's place,
playing squash, or out on the town, either for dinner or drinks or
going to see some live music. Oh or work. Kids get tutored at night
time, y'know.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I am a lot more emotional than I let on.
You should message me if
If you wanna chat to me. If you think I sound cool and wanna hang
out with me, especially if you are cool. If you like to read or
listen to the same stuff I do. If you want to go to live music with
me. Especially if you are a fun and cute girl, or a smart and sexy
guy.
