Keep on Smilin'!!

About Me

about me......... well......... i'm analytical and pensive... i love good conversations with good people... i have a fond appreciation for the written word and, consequently, i write incessantly... i am an avid reader - urban fiction floats my boat... i am intelligent and quick-witted... cynical yet non-judgmental, and subsequently hate to be judged... i adore music - mostly classic rock, and some recent artists... i value talented musicians playing kick-ass instruments with a kickin' baseline that makes me wanna groove - but mostly, i focus on the lyrics (even lyrics from cheesy songs if they're saying something worthwhile - and I know a ridiculous amount of them off by heart, including "singable" guitar riffs!!) i've dabbled in a few different industries but have never found any of those pathways remotely satisfying. the jobs that i have had in the past were incredible learning experiences - mostly confirming what I DON'T WANT as my vocation for the next 30 years! but now, i love what i do for a living, every single day. yes, that's right - every single day! it's a dream. i studied film, east asian religions, and psychoanalysis at university...have worked in advertising, a celebrity booking agency and a special effects post-production shop - i know, a pretty interesting mix...but i'm an interesting girl! i think that tells you enough, in brief... if you want to find out more, you'll just have to ask!
