My Interests

**hmmm this Myspace is pretty much my music-nerdom page now, as everyone (including me) has gone to Facebook - so let me know if u want to add me through there. Facebook ain't got nothing on Myspace when it comes to music-stuff, though.**

-age stated above may be a complete and utter lie-

i’m obsessed with music, clearly.

& i looooove going to concerts and festivals (especially the Big Day Out, Splendour In The Grass and Homebake where everyone’s out to have a gigantic party), and most of the stuff i listen to only generally gets played on the spectacularly awesome Triple J.

have been working in I.T. for a loooong time, and am a long-suffering (oh, the suffering) massive loyal (i.e. naive and broken-spirited) supporter of the Cronulla Sharks...

i live and work in North Sydney, and am like really really really weird and stuff. i like to think of it as being eccentric rather than weird, but who am i kidding...

i'm writing my own music, and also learning to play keyboard at the moment
