If you added me, or I added you, you should already know some things about me… but here goes.

I’m in Year 11 and im 17 years old. i live in Melbourne (best city EVA) and i go to ringwood secondary college. I have a sister who also goes there

Im not very tall, 5’6” and am quite a skinny, lean build. ive got brown hair and gorgeous blue eyes =P
Im a fun guy, I love to get drunk and party hard, but i also love the finer things in life, sitting down with a partner, platter of cheese, glass of wine by the fire.
Im social, lets go out somewhere... anywhere... Movies!! I love movies. don’t care what (to a degree) and just going out with ppl… not a rave partyer, but ive never been clubbing. so who knows?

Ppl say im pretty smart, both academically and sensibly, but i know how to let go and act 5 yrs younger if I want. Hehehe
I live through my friends. They are amazing.
“You are a reflection of your friends” They are always here for me and help me through the tuff times. I love you guys!!

Im in a band. Were called The Unaffected and we’re just getting out shit together. I play electric bass =D
I love everything to do with music, doing yr 12 music now.
Hopefully I can be a rockstar when I grow up!!! You laugh now, but just you wait…

My family is incredible. You can’t pick your relatives, but I wouldn’t pick anybody different. Although they are sometimes annoying, they support me with everything I do and theyve always got an (not overprotective) eye out for me.

I have too many hobbies and interests. I just cant do all of them at once, and they cost too much money =S but I enjoy what I can do all the same. More on that below

I stay up late. Right now it is 12:30pm. I just dont go to bed I sleep fine, when i like, go to bed. I think I might be addicted to myspace. (admitting is the first step =P)

I live through my dreams, and I have many of them. there are so many things I wanna do b4 leaving this world. Travel (already been to many places) marriage, get a career, skydive, and silly things like tip over a Mr whippy van.
hahahaha

I wanna meet ppl. Nice ppl, ppl like me and people who aren’t like me (opposites attract)
I dont particularly want to meet any celebrities, there are some inspirational stories out there, but chances are youll here a better one from a bum or a crim..

Music Music is my life. I love music, “without music life would be a bitch!”

I play the guitar, electric bass guitar, double bass, and I am learning how to sing. I enjoy having a whack on the drums, and I want my own drumkit however they cost so much I suck at it. =(. Ive got a keyboard, but i dont play it. (i really should learn though)

I am in a band called ‘The Unaffected’, our Myspace page should be arriving shortly (after i finish making it). I love all you guys in the band [chris, nick, tallis and harro] We play rock music, and play mainly punk-rock/alternative stuff, although our actual genre is currently undecided coz we like a lot of styles. Keep your eye out for us in the near future.

I enjoy listening to music, I respect all styles and genres of music, because I know how difficult it is to write, perform and record.
However I do have my favourite genres and artists.
For a full list view my blog entry here

I study music at school, (and also at home) I am doing Units 3 & 4 in music solo performance on my bass guitar and I enjoy it immensely. “I pick up my instrument not to play, but to learn” I have learned so much this year and I wish to keep learning. I am also involved in various school bands and groups.

Although every musician wants to play what he loves as a profession, but
I do not want fame,
I do not want glory, (well maybe a little)
I just want to play.

Music Production my biggest pathway in my life, My career will be in sound engineering. I love to produce music. I enjoy recording and mixing new content, and some day I wish to own my own million dollar studio.
I have my sights set upon JMC academy in south Melbourne as a college/uni for when I graduate.

Dance I have been doing ballroom and latin dancing for just over 4 years now, (although it is worth noting that I took a year off.) I thoroughly enjoy it!
The feeling you get gliding around the floor in a waltz, the rush you get when you move your body in the cha cha. It is unrivalled.
And the overwhelming feeling of success and achievement you get when you complete a level or do well in a competition. =D

I dance the adult classes and socials every week at Marshere in Heathmont and occasionally i go to the teens social at ringwood, and I love the people at both studios.
Everybody is so friendly, and that is part of the fun of dance. It is a social place. So if you want to have a go, come along one night!!

I love to get into competition. Ive done a few ‘medalist’ comps, I hope to register some time soon; however I do not have the time for anymore commitments.

Skiing Sport is always something I have had trouble getting into. I am such a butterfingers, I can’t deal with ball sports or racquet sports.

Ever since I was 4, my family has taken me up to the snow, by the age of 6 I was alpine skiing and when I was 8 I did my first black run in the village bowl at Falls Creek Alpine skiing is an amazing sport, who would think of hurtling down a 45 degree slope at 40-50km and hour attached to two sheets of fibreglass.
Yes it sounds crazy, and it is dangerous. But it’s such a buzz!

My favourite *Australian* resort is probably Mt Hotham. But Buller is a great medium between extreme skiing and friendly skiing. Last year I was lucky enough to go to new Zealand (shit season here) and I loved it.
I was skiing alps I would never dreamed of, and the price was shit all!!

Surrounded by 50 cm of snow, skiis barely visible, the ground had soft cushiony feel. The sun burned bright in the sky and heated up everything around you. Shorts and a T-Shirt would have sufficed if it had not have been for the falls =P.
“you are never truly having fun in the snow until you fall over”

Speed. Speed is the best.
Speed = FUN!
I love to go fast, and on the slopes that’s what I do.
I fly!

Someday I wish to visit some of the most challenging mountains all around the world. Heli-skiing, extreme movies, you name it. Skiing the slopes around the world is a dream of mine, one that I will make sure I accomplish!

TV Generally TV sucks.
There are so many shitty shows out there.
However there are some really good programs on the TV.
I enjoy light entertainment comedy. I used to love heavy dramas like ‘Lost’ and ‘Greys Anatomy’, and I still do enjoy them, but I don’t have time to watch them and I don’t want to be sucked in by them

Some of my favourite shows are:
Top Gear
Chasers war on Everything
Southpark
Futurama
Family Guy
Summer Heights high

That’s all I can think of for now

Movies Movies are freaking awesome!!!
I love watching movies, especially at the cinema.
I have never walked out of a movie thinking it was totally shit.

My favourite movie… hmmm I don’t really know. I like V for vendetta. But im a bit over it… I love the Lord of the Rings series. The imagery is superb and the detail that goes into the sets and cast are fantastic. Peter Jackson really is a star in my book. However J.R Tolkien deserves mass credit for the storyline. A true fantasy/adventure!
~ I never did read the book though ~

The Harry Potter series should be great, although the first few movies I thought were a little disappointing.

Unfortunately I don’t get to see movies very often, my full schedule and my expensive hobbies prevents me from getting out much and often I don’t actually watch the movie anyway =P

Travel The world shall be my playground.

This is an amazing world we live in. I want to experience it all.
I want to travel the world.

Already I have been to many countries:
not trying to brag
New Zealand
Canada
Tahiti
Malaysia
germany
scotland
france
switzerland
Czech Republic
Hong Kong
Thailand
Austria
England
Ireland
Italy

The world shall be my playground and I will explore it, right to its very core.
I have been bitten by the travel bug,
The list will grow with time.
