About Me

.ADD. .MESSAGE. .COMMENT.
my name is gemma. my wonderful boyfriend pablo, good friends, & family - they’re all i need.
i’m fuelled by tea, baked goods & pasta. i love good conversation & people with intelligent & interesting things to say. i don't have much of a nickname, they never really stick with me, so most of the time i won't use nicknames for other people either. i think music is an amazing form of expression and i admire anyone who has musical talent. i love going to concerts - i have no musical talent of my own so i decided to study event management (which is actually called leisure management but it doesn't sound as impressive on my resume). i have a lot of photographs of friends & family around & i don't like taking them down or moving them. i love things that have poor english translations. i'm shocking at saving money. i want to see the world.
i love: pablo, friends, laughing until i cry, photographs, rainy days, scarves, sunsets, the sky, music, the internet, picnics, generosity, autumn & winter, hair cuts, tea, symmetry, nintendo ds, twilight, sailor jerry, the city, baked goods, learning something new, vintage patterns, ikea, packages in the mail, jackets, ebay, free stuff, messy hair, kindness, & other things.
you can't always win.
you're not better than anyone.
they're not better than you.
