i'm me
i’m impulsive, talkative, affectionate, complicated, vindictive, quixotic, distractible, intense, pugnacious, cynical, argumentative, vehement, precocious, moody, impetuous, disconcerting, patronizing, judgmental, incogitant, astute, enigmatic, obnoxious, inquisitive, supercilious, occasionally endearing, and all together too much to handle
♥
i spend most of my time in my favourite hole-in-the-wall cafe in a back alley writing about the world in a purple book
♥
i have a vocabulary fetish
♥
a fetish also, for piercings; i have lots, 22 to be exact
♥
i live for the moments in life that make me feel the same way i do when i listen to tom waits
♥
i'm not short, but am perceived to be
♥
reverse psychology is required to get me to do anything
♥
i go to uni
♥
last year i went to rmit...i was studying marketing there...i do not want to be a marketer
♥
now i go to monash...i'm studying arts there
♥
i plan to spend the year reading poetry and books about the renaissance
♥
i heart uni...it gives me an excuse to buy stationary
♥
if anyone, throughout the course of my entire life, ever uses the word ‘beatnik’ to describe me, i will die happy
♥
i have a really poor excuse for a signature; it’s just me writing my name
for this reason, i can never be famous
♥
i experience de ja vu far more often than is normal; i attribute it to a possible temporal lobe dysfunction
♥
i find that when I’m overtired, i reach this great point of delirium wherein my vocabulary is phenomenally impressive
♥
i have proclaimed my love for another on the back of a cocktail bar coaster
♥
when playing a word association game once, i was asked what animal i would be hypothetically if i could be any animal in the world…and without thinking, my response (for some reason) was ‘a puffin’
♥
i love perfume, and constantly enquire as to what scent people are wearing when i hug them
♥
i steal epicure out of the nearest copy of the age every tuesday
♥
i wear my hair in chopsticks, and pens, and paintbrushes, and knitting needles…anything long and pointy, really
♥
i touch things i shouldn’t…my curiosity is ungovernable
♥
i have a kitten named cleo...she is perfection in kitten form
♥
jeff buckley’s ‘twelfth of never’ will never cease to send chills through my body
♥
i like the way kiwifruit skin feels against the roof of my mouth
♥
one one occasion, i was chased by a goose
♥
and on more than one occasion, i have slipped over on flowers
♥
my favourite number is three
♥
i think that being a florist would be a cool occupation…i thought that before, and now after, i found out the freudian interpretation of such a desire
♥
i know lots of simpsons quotes...i find them useful
♥
there will be no panicking! at my disco
♥
although there may be cake
♥ ♥ ♥

when songs you love get attached to people you grow to hate and are consequently ruined
