Who I'd like to meet:
Colours lose their teeth when i'm with you
Stories end as stories start
when dealing with a crimson heart
When dealing with a boy who spilt his green into my yellow and its making me feel really blue

no memories, no plans


My Interests

Cats, Graffiti, Street Art, Guiness, Suicide Girls, Supercult.com, BME.com, pinups, piercings, tattoos, conversation, long rides with the car listening to music, thrift shop shopping, reading books, quiet half lit cafes, boy-cut briefs (on girls), summer camping, good tasty food, pornography, phonography, photography, cooking, making stuff, graphic design, painting, sketching, burlesque shows, a night out with friends just painting and chilling, red wine, having fun, painting canvases on the floor of my bedroom, travelling, kissing, cappuccino with cinnamon, cinnamon chewing gum, cinnamon and apple tea, pretty much everything that contains cinnamon, silly jokes that noone else laughs to, parties, postcards, parfume, faraway friends, new friends, handwritten letters and their envelopes, mix tapes, collecting recipes, receiving text messages in the small hours when I'm half asleep, the perfect music mix, blue-black hair dye, legwarmers, cool printed Tshirts, spray paint, spray painted hands, hand made stuff, naptime and cuddling, rainy days, alternating with sunny days (I'm a southern girl, I need to photosynthesise), horse riding, tea, I'm sure I must have more interests, but right now I cannot seem to wrap my brain around any of them. Maybe I'm becoming disinterested. Truthfully, I'm interested in cats, art, graffiti, music, cinnamon and red red wine.

I'd like to meet:

Out on a limb while landlocked and living ..ing, poetry, film, photography and anything how do you minimize yourself to a paragraph, to a pagelength, to a myspace? I am none of the things written here, because I breathe, and work, and cry, and yell, and want and all the emotions that don't ring true on computer screens but in the eyes, and ears, in the space my heart beats I am humble and shy and pretentious stable and fragile, resillient and teetering I am the need for human contact I am the person that is alleged to have been here recognized by the marks left from keystrokes known by the recognition of language and the story of the two sides of you making sense of it for good or otherwiseI am willing to meet whoever can spark any of my many dark and evil interests. HOWEVER: if you're one of those myspace whore collectors, please pass me by. And if you really want to add me as a friend, try to chat with me once in a while...and make a point of introducing yourself first please.

** Here I'd like to ask everyone who wants to make a public comment on my profile, to PLEASE WRITE IN ENGLISH if possible. PARAKALO GRAFETE STA AGGLIKA EAN EINAI DYNATON**

This would be so much more polite and thoughtful towards people who don't speak Greek (and I've got quite a few on my friends' list) so they'd be able to follow what's being said and not feel utterly dumb by having to scroll down endless posts of gibberish "greeklish".

Thanks a lot in advance!
