whole lotta rosie

About Me

I was born and raised here in Auckland, New Zealand. I’m a Kiwi-South Korean. I’m easily amused, seemingly gullible and I adore people. I smile a lot, compose poetry and songs, and draft my thoughts onto paper through my drawings. I sing, play piano, guitar, clarinet, drums, harmonica and the xylophone. I drink beaucoup de tea and ‘simply squeezed’ orange juice. I love: my summer dresses; the way the light breeze dances on my face; reading to escape reality; collecting antiques; candlelit rooms; making sure everything is picture-perfect;One day I want to live in a white lake house, with ducks and a little boat that I can float on. I’ll make my own little secret garden where fairies can play and dance between the willow trees. It’ll be brilliant darling.

My Interests

people. drawing. writing. gigs. music. photography. my guitar. traveling. football. europe. my sisters. holding hands. kisses. singing. languages. cultures. different accents. the beach. surfing. songwriting. jazz. the feeling that you get when you find money in the pocket of a pair of jeans that you haven’t worn in ages. sitting on my roof. sunsets. reading books to escape reality. countless hours of listening to jazz.

I'd like to meet:

A nice chap who paints a smile on my face. One day I'll find him, mark my words... I'll find him.
