I am here for Friends

About Me

Friendly yet shy at times, have been told that I'm a lot stronger person than I let myself believe, occasional hedonist with dreams of grandeur (RIIIGHT....). Otherwise, I work hard, try to play when I have the time and make friends along the way. It's really hard to lose me as a friend unless you really succeed at betraying my trust, then I'm well-nigh impossible to live with.

My Interests

Bellydancing, corsets, RPGs, magic, clubbing, horseback riding, cooking, wine, conventions (mainly after parties), Goth music, clothing in general, food, steampunk clothing and knitting.

Music:

VnV Nation, Wolfsheim, Black Eyed Peas, Tori Amos, Evanescence, Lacuna Coil, The Rasmus, My Chemical Romance, Finger Eleven, Natasha Bedingfield, Gorillaz, Fiona Apple, Jewel, Sarah McLachlan, Maroon 5, Jason Mraz, Kylie Minogue, Me First and the Gimme Gimmes, U2, Uncle Kracker, Santana, Dido, Norah Jones, Pussycat Dolls, Weezer, Rufus Wainwright, Lisa Loeb, Avril Lavigne, Scissorkiss, Venus Hum
