Skilly's Big Adventure!!!!

About Me

Hey hey all, myspace won't let me get into my other profile, so whooooooooo for a new one!!!I'm a rather random girl from Australia, I've been in the UK a bit over a month and loving everybody here!! I'm living in Manchester with a huge and wonderful bunch of people, looking for work (in a rather relaxed fashion), doing the odd bit of uni (in a likewise fashion), and. Oh wait, that's about it. I don't know, does having toilet paper fights count?? Haha. At the moment I'm trying to find some way of getting back onto the water, because I miss it and I'm going to diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeee!!!!! xxxxx

My Interests

Love of getting things pierced; SAILING; all watersports; the outdoors, camping, walking, abseiling, kayaking, climbing, etc; skiing; MUSIC; jumping into slash off things; going to gigs; meeting strange and random people in bizarre ways; working. TRAVELLING and having "Laura's Little Adventures".

I'd like to meet:

I like people who are a bit crazy (ok, I'm lying. A LOT crazy), who aren't afraid to try new things, who like to have adventures, who can be impulsive and spontaneous. I guess, anybody out to have fun!!

Television:

Yeah.... I gave away my TV. TV is the anti-christ..... okay I'm going to have to edit that, I've been watching so much since being in the UK!! And while I don't *like* it as such, have seen a heck of a lot of Hollyoaks.... aaaaargh!!

And of course... trashy chic fiction.....
