I am here for Friends

About Me

God I hate these things...I can't cope with the pressure of feeling like I need to be funny/interesting/outstanding etc. so I thought I'd let the words flow and see what happens. (See, I already sound lame!)I'm generally a laid back person and yet hard working and committed to the things I consider to be important. I love my friends; I would do anything for them and am always ready to listen to their problems . However I find it difficult to relate to people who grumble about aspects of their lives but make no effort to make changes...if it's that bad get off your arse and do something about it! Student life is a blast and I'm dreading having to grow up and be sensible. My friends know me as the vodka queen but that doesn't mean I have to drink to have a good time (although it often helps!) I feel really lucky to have such an amazing brother; after years of fighting and wanting to kill each other we are close friends and I have alot of respect for him. By the way, check out the band he's in, formerly Hondo Maclean, at www.myspace.com/thefuturerocks! (Unashamed plug there). Love-wise I've been quite unlucky - why is it that you never want the people who want you yet the ones you desire are never interested?! Right now I'm happy meeting new people and we'll see what happens! At heart I'm a bit of a hippy which conflicts with my logical, scientific mind but that makes life interesting. I never make plans too far in advance as spontaneity = excitement and some of my most treasured memories are the result of random acts and events. When bad things happen I try not to stress and tell myself that everything will turn out for the best, and guess what...it usually does! Well, that's me in a nutshell (cue Austin Powers related jokes!); now I'm going to stop procrastinating by writing these pointless things and do something else more sensible but probably more boring! ;)

My Interests

I've spent most of my life being an unconventional horsey girl and still love riding and spending time at the stables whenever I can. When I'm in uni I play alot of basketball which is the best ball-game I've played (kicks netball's arse any day!) although I'm not all that great. Although probably not classed as an interest I absolutely adore driving...anywhere, and music is a HUGE part of my life! More boring interests are reading, as long as its not romance/chick-lit, and being duped into going to the cinema to see films that look amazing in the trailers but usually don't live up to expectations!

Music:

I like anything with real meanning and intention behind it - none of this wishy-washy namby-pamby shit!! :- Jeff Buckley, Beastie Boys, Clutch, C.O.C., Leonard Cohen, Cypress Hill, Daft Punk, Faithless, Faith No More, Fleetwood Mac, Led Zeppelin, Metallica, NERD, Nine Inch Nails, Pendulum, Prodigy, Pantera, Rage Against The Machine, Incubus, Soundgarden, Tool, Strapping Young Lad, Helmet, BLS, Pissing Razors, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Bob Marley, Guns 'N' Roses, The Future(the band formerly known as Hondo Maclean!)...rather an eclectic selection really.
