serial killers + celebrity gossip + playing snake

My Interests

i'm quite interested in cute boys and puppies, observe: keeping track of the weather forecast * researching and thinking about the lives of serial killers * trying to run long distances on treadmills * double sized cups of tea with honey only in blue with yellow polka dots teacup * cider on tap and beer with lime and ginger beer * when random dogs in the street smile at me and want to follow me because they can tell i'm a 'dog person' * helping people who are drunk and lost * reading on my banana lounge in my underwear in the sunshine * cooking meals and being anxious because i don’t think there will be enough food but there always is * living in my kinda crappy house with my kinda awesome housemates * having too many directions * researching overseas travel as well as local parks to take my dog * drinking smoothies but only with straws * constantly planning karaoke expeditions that never happen * sending group sms * calling my boyfriend by his real name * badge design * dancing * excellent spelling * colouring in pictures that jak draws for me * wasabi coated anything * ordering breakfasts madeup of extras but always having the mushrooms * eight dvds for ten dollars at video busters * singing high pitched made up songs for dog and boyfriend * coconut smelling or tasting stuff.
