About Me

You can listen to me tweet here: www.twitter.com/jocelynbrewer
I am a great parker.
My heart- it races.
---------------------------------------------------
Don't worry
Surrender
Think dynamic
Love forever
Advice from Maharatha dasa, 2004.
---------------------------------------------------
I have a few different bands.
IMPT- The Important. Like MGMT- The Management but more executive.
THE GAZE- a new wave indie trio with Benno and Shaunno.
THE EXPLODING GHOSTS- a 2 piece jazz outfit with Tash.
LASCIVIOUS BATTERY- a gangsta grrrl hip-hop posse
My music is unreal.
Literally.
----------------------------------------------------
This makes sense to me.
Today a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves.
BILL HICKS
----------------------------------------------------
Who am I really? I have a delicious mix of interests and projects on the go. While my day job is as an Educational Psychologist working with young people, I am also a writer, a thinker and a tell-it-how-it-is-er.
In 2009 I am writing a thesis on teenage boys and their 'relationship' to the Internet, my interest being MMOG's and the concept of Internet Addiction (or Pathological Internet Use).
I have been involved with the independent film screening event Popcorn Taxi since it's inception in 1999, and in 2008 I produced a play at the Darlinghurst Theatre called 'Our Country's Good' - the same year I retrained from being a high school social science teacher to a counsellor.
In both 2008 and 2009, I took myself off to the Coachella Music Festival and rocked out in the desert for a few days with a bunch of mates. Awesomeness.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

1. My Sweet Lord.

2. Jean Michel Basquiat.

3. Miranda.

4. Naboo from the Mighty Boosh

5. The 5 other Jocelyn Brewer's that there are on the planet- on in the Dominican Republic, one in Canada, another in The US, and a few dead ones.

IF I KNOW YOU BECAUSE YOU CALL ME "MISS" AND YOU WEAR A SCHOOL UNIFORM CHANCES ARE YOU WILL GET A DENY RESPONSE WHEN YOU ASK TO BE MY FRIEND. Being your teacher does not make you my friend. Try me after the HSC.
