I LOVE live music...no 'doof doof' dance clubs for me! Stand up comedy...nothing beats laughing till you cry :) I try to live well and keep fit and healthy (with as little gym as possible!) I am fascinated by other people's cultures and lifestyles so I visit a different country every year, although I hate the literal part of travelling - motion sickness sucks :( I'm a shopping addict and can go into ANY shop and ALWAYS come out with something! I'm forever renovating my home due to my love of interior decorating and Feng Shui, and making crafty things. I also love thunderstorms, fireworks, fairy floss, the smell of rain on freshly cut grass, the colour green, snuggling under a warm doona on a cold winter night, and silence...sometimes silence is underrated.
I dislike liars, people who take advantage of others, those who bludge off society, people who have no regard for our declining environment, criminals, cruelty to animals, narcissism, and spelling errors...they really irk me.
I'd like to meet:
The Dalai Lamai...what an amazing human being! And REAL people...Ken and Barbie are way too overrated and you just can't have a decent conversation with them! Btw, I like to chat with my friends, not increase my numbers or yours, so if you can't be bothered reading about me please don't waste time requesting me.

Movies:
I love horror..all the oldschool stuff, plus Saw 1&2&3&4 (the BEST horror series ever!), Hostel, The Others, Sixth Sense
Movies that make me feel something like Shawshank Redemption, Elephant Man, Pay It Forward, Forrest Gump, The Green Mile, and anything with Morgan Freeman.
Comedies like 40 Year Old Virgin, Meet the Parents/Fockers, American Pie.
Plus lots of movies from the 80s...
Oh...and Rockstar...an alltime favourite!!
Television:
I try not to watch too much TV but it's a good way to zone out for a while so OK...I admit I have a fondness for Home and Away...come on, who can honestly say they don't know who Alf and Sally are?! I also enjoy Underbelly, Nip Tuck, Moonlight, Weeds, Kalifornication, Prison Break, Supernatural, plus good old comedies like Everybody Loves Raymond, Friends, Married With Children, Will & Grace, Kath & Kim, King of Queens, Home Improvements etc.
Books:
Two of my favourites are The Art of Happiness by the Dalai Lamai and at the other end of the scale Rock Bottom by Pamela Des Barres. I mostly read nonfiction books, autobiographies and serial killer stuff. But on the other hand I can never pass up a good horror...anything by Stephen King, Dean Koontz or Clive Barker.
Heroes:
My dad who died from leukaemia a few years ago...and my mum for being our rock when the world as we knew it crumbled beneath us. I strive to live my life by their standards...hardworking and honest, and believe in the motto "do unto others as you would have them do to you".
I also admire people who pursue their dreams, who are not afraid to stand out and stand up for what they believe in, activists for animals and basic human rights, and those who have gone through the darkest of times and come out on the brighter side.
