If I could take your troubles, I would toss them into the sea. But all these things I'm finding Are

About Me

Things I like: I LOVE movies, going out, art, theatre, games..(just got a DS - woo hoo!!)...all kinds of stuff. I'm a creative person trapped in the body of an office worker (like many others, I'm sure!)...I really enjoy painting and photography...I can't actually draw that well so I just make up my own mad stuff (see my pics if you're really that interested). I love music of all kinds although that doesn't mean I want a million friend requests from weirdy bands who are trying to get rich...lol...I can play the saxophone and the clarinet, though I don't get to do that much these days...I'm very romantic but hide it well...I think some people find me a bit difficult to get close to – but, hey – I’m worth the effort!...If I'm doing something, I always try my best and I love a challenge. I love helping and encouraging people and I'm a total lost cause when it comes to animals...I want a donkey sanctuary one day...I'm gonna be a crazy spinster living with a load of unwanted animals lol...
I LOVE going abroad, learning new languages and meeting new people. I speak fluent French, ok German and pretty bad Italian. I lived in Paris for just over a year and I really miss it - hope to go back there to work again in the future.
Other favourite things include swimming in the sea (as long as the fish know to steer clear – ewww!), sailing, skiing, snowball fights, watching Alan Partridge with my brother, walking on the beach, my journal, ice cream, my paint box, my little sisters, drinking games with my friends (who remembers the flaming shots in Paris?!..I do…kinda!), art galleries, bright colours, proper big squishy hugs, snuggling in bed when it’s raining outside, smiling faces, sleeping late on a Saturday morning, happy people generally.
