I am eclectic, reserved, and huggable.
My Self-Summary
Let's see... 22 years old, currently working 3 jobs, though I'm
thinking of quitting one because they're not giving me enough
shifts. Living at home whilst I save for a car, looking for
something like an old Skyline or Commodore.
My dream is to one day own and run my own cafe one day, been
working in hospitality ever since high school. It's one of the
things that I have absolute confidence in myself about, because I
know I can do it. Thinking of taking a business management course
to get me started with that.
I tend to spend what little free time I have
reading, or talking to my friends. My
love is fantasy, all witches and wizards and knights and chivalry.
I think I would have liked to live back then, maybe I did in a past
life, who knows?
What I’m doing with my life
Well, I work with my dad at the moment, he runs the warehouse for a
clothing importer in Preston. So lots of lifting and moving stuff
around. I bet no one ever thought I'd be doing that, but I am. It's
actually not that bad a gig, my dad is one of the few people I
really admire and respect, and he's a fair boss.
My other main job is basically helping run a canteen for the local
footy club, which tends to be pretty hectic. Always running back
and forth, frying up more greasy crap that everyone seems to gorge
themselves upon at a sporting match. Not that I care, I'm cooking
it, not eating it. Well, eating much of it...
I went and saw
Avenue
Q recently, please do yourselves a favor and go see this
excellent comedic masterpiece while you can, the laughs were non
stop all night, it was magnificent.
I’m really good at
I'm awesome at
video games, I'm a total freak speed
reader as well. I'm a good listener too. I'm usually pretty good at
making people laugh, but my jokes can be rather lame at
times.
Cooking? I'd like to think that I'm a good cook. I love cooking
with garlic and onions. I love making stir frys and lasagne. I'm
also good at
making cakes, I've been doing cake
decorating for 4/5 years now. I've even won a 1st prize at my local
festival before.
I'm a good listener, and I'm good at making people feel wanted. I
very much enjoy the right peoples company, as long as they don't
mind talking :) At least enough to get started, I'm not very good
at that.
The first things people usually notice about me
I'm not sure, do they ever notice? I guess maybe the books I read.
Maybe my eyes? I guess they might notice me trying to surreptiously
check them out.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
Authors -
David
Eddings,
Raymond E. Feist,
Garth Nix,
Anne Bishop,
George R.R.
Martin. Most fantasy/sci-fi stuff captures my interest.
Movies - Die Hard, Indiana Jones, Star Wars, most Miyazaki films.
Anything actiony/comedy suits me. Fan of Adam Sandler, he never
fails to make me laugh.
TV - I love anime, and cartoons, and all that stuff. I've been
having twinges of nostalgia lately, lading me to search out for
such classics as Samurai Pizza Cats, the old Earthworm Jim cartoon,
and the original X-Men cartoon. Mainstream TV, I guess I mostly
watch
House
M.D.,
Law & Order and I'm
recently getting into
Supernatural
Music -
The
Hush Sound, they're kinda an alternative indie rock band, a
Canadian friend got me onto them.
Lacuna Coil,
The Killers,
Kelly Clarkson]] (I still maintain she's the only decent *insert
country here* Idol winner. My tastes are pretty eclectic, I
think random things from random bands. Oh, favorite old time band
is the
Skyhooks
though.
Food - I'm a sucker for a good curry. Or a nice salad. And don't
forget all the bad things, chips, chocolate, ice cream, those are
givens though.
The six things I could never do without
My family - They've always stuck by me and loved me, no matter
what.
My friends - They all have their problems and idiosyncracies, but I
couldn't imagine life without them.
Books - My escape! My realm of dreams and fantasy!
Love - I may have grown up a solitary person, but I value love very
highly.
Money - Useful for buying more books. And for my eventual
automobile. And for treating nice women to first dates, when that
happens.
Internet - Hard to imagine life without it, these days.
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Usually depends on how much sleep I got. If I got a lot of sleep,
I've probably got random music lyrics running through my head. If I
didn't get much sleep, I'm thinking about sleep.
On a typical Friday night I am
Sitting at home reading or playing video games. Drawing maybe,
listening to music, watching random anime. On rare occasions, I
head over to a friends place to chill with them. Or spend a night
with my parents.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I sleep with the same teddy I slept with as a baby. He's my oldest
friend =)
You should message me if
If you feel like talking, I guess? I don't bite, and I'd be happy
to hear from anyone, really =)
