About Me

Myspace Layouts - Myspace Editor

"What worse illness can there be than acute conventionality? You should pray every night that you don't wake up with it." - George Weinberg

I am 26 years old. I used to live in Dubai. Thank goodness for small miracles. I usually start all my sentences with "I". That tells you more about me than anything else I might say. I love Chris. I love my family. Ek hou van boeke, boeke, boeke, sterre, polkadots,skerp mense. Ek hou daarvan as mense jou pleasantly surprise. Ek hou van Russian Toasts. Ek hou van Schpontana. Ek is Schpontana. Chris is Schpontana. Ons drink Schpontanas. Partykeer doen ons die Schpontana. Ek hou van musiek, maar is maar sleg met bands se name onthou.

My Interests

Reading, writing, esoterica, psychology, sociology, Valerie Solanas, Salvador Dali, Fridah Kahlo, the universe and where it ends, stars (the ones in the sky, stoopid-ass), books.

I'd like to meet:

Mense wat woorde vir ontbyt eet.

My Afrikaanse Gedigte is hier: Roekeloos ..Gaan lees dit of daar's moeilikheid.

Music:

Hardstyle, Tori Amos, Fiona Apple, The Dresden Dolls, Radiohead (some). Regina Spektor, Amy Winehouse, Macy Gray, Missy Elliott, The Killers. T-Rex, Supertramp and dare I say it - Abba. Mmmm, I don't really have a lot of specific musicians I like listening to, more like one song of that artist and another one of that artist. Changes every day.

Movies:

Give me independent, foreign, artistic, metaphysical movies and I'm there. If it's some commercial love story starring the next best thing in Hollywood, I'd rather spend the night at home plucking out my eyelashes.

Amelie is my all-time favourite movie of all time ever ever ever. Sweet and beautiful. The Piano, Napoleon Dynamite, Turtles can fly, Virgin Suicides.

Television:

Pfft

Books:

Metaphysical fiction. Books you could imagine happening to someone. Situations that are real. Do NOT expect me to read science fiction, crime novels, fantasy or Mills and Boon. I think my all time favourite author is Nataniel. Oh, and Joan Hambidge. Err, and Jeanne Goosen. And Dave Eggers. And Andre P Brink (Duiwelskloof). Oh, and don't forget Andre LeToit. Plus some others I can't remember now.

Heroes:

Uhm, I don't really believe in making heroes of people, I like to listen to normal people and their stories and often find something heroic in even the most ordinary person.

Kom ons maak of ons mense is

Vergewe my, want ek weet nie meer wat om te skryf nie. Die woorde sukkel om te kom en ek hoop dis net tydelik, want eintlik hou ek nogal daarvan om te skryf. Partykeer lees ek my ou blogs en dink: Jou...

Ons gaan LEWE

Ek rook my dood

Jirre, hou dit nooit op nie? Ek rook my dood. My longe waai 'n vlag van surrender. Ek sit en staar my oe vierkantig elke aand. Ek kort iemand om mee te praat. Ek huil op die bus in die aande. Gelukki...

Onthou jy, Percy?

Onthou jy my stilte toe ons eers ontmoet het? Onthou jy wyn steel by die karavaanpark en verdwaal raak in ons dronkenskap? Onthou jy disposable kameras koop voor ons uitgaan en ons hele tittewytery ...

Ek moet skryf

Ek moet skryf, want dis daai ding wat ek apparently nogal goed kan doen as ek myself apply. Maar HIER wil ek nie skryf nie, want skryf is vir my 'n positiewe ding, progress, vooruitgang. En hier wil e...
