About Me

Hi, welcome to glorious monument devoted to my ego. I'm a 23 year old male living in my hometown of Brisbane. I recently started work as a PA for a city councillor, which has been fun so far. I previously worked for Myer (a department store) where i sold furniture. I spent the last 6 years of my life getting myself an arts degree in philosophy and a science degree in psychology (very soon with honours, honest i will finish!). You might well ask why? As do I sometimes 'specially as my first job out of uni has nothing to do with my degrees yet i'm paying back HECS!

Things you should know: In the last five minutes i've fallen in unrequited love. I'm Brisbane's leading Cream poet. I'm debonair and stunningly handsome. I'm a tragic soul. A modern day conquistador. I wish I was Russian or Jewish. I'm somewhat arrogant but with a delightful lemony twist of self deprecation.

Things I like:::::: - My blue jacket - My Brown Jacket - My Denim Sports Jacket - playing dress-ups - dancing - Bright Colours - Soft Fabrics - meeting people - hearing church bells while laying in bed, or on couch, or on floor as the case may be. - historic parallels of a personal nature - my super-elegant-fantastic-chivalrous-obtuse-shiny friends - My Brothers - singing - jumping - Ninja Lesbians - The Labor Party - The Greens - The Democrats.

I don't like:::::: - cringing - sago - the realization of embarrasment - pastel shirts with thin stripes - realizing i've only myself to blame - Family First - The Liberal Party - not liking things...
