About Me

"To make people free is the aim of art, therefore art for me is the science of freedom." -Joseph Beuys

As you may have already learnt my name is amanda and i am 20 years old. I love travelling and last year i was galivanting around Europe for five months, where i went to the world cup, camping with contiki (good times, good times), hung out with family, enjoyed the festivals, the markets, the german beer, the array of authentic food and met some great people who i look forward to seeing again!

My next trip is just around the corner, where i will jet off to america, mexico and japan with natalie and we will no doubt have an awesome time and some great laughs, bringing back more unforgetable memories and an exhausting amount of photos, but hey it is better to have too many than not enough.

I intend to go and study in Europe next year, so i should be organising that next week. Hopefully all goes to plan and i am able to study in Florence, Italy; however if that is way over my price range, then i will most probably end up in Amsterdam on exchange, which hey I am not complaining. This is a great oppurtunity for me and i am really looking forward to it and think i may gain some inspiration and motivation for my degree by being there, aswell as experience a new culture, language and environment where i hope to meet lots of interesting and fun people!

Well, only the future can tell what is going to happen for me, or of course my dreams, which seem to be doing that alot lately. I think i have a more exciting, eventful or weird life in my dreams. They truly are great, because i end up in so many different realms and it makes going to sleep so much more enjoyable. I tend to wake up with a story or two, until the memory fades and vanishes from existance.

Anyway I love music, art, languages, drama/performance, the many faces of the sky, sunsets, ice-cream (rainbow paddlepops and giant sandwich = 21st cake), endless fits of laughter, horse riding, summer, purple and pastel green, beach, colour, going for walks, basketball, music festivals and gigs, dancing and of course my mates! I enjoy playing guitar and singing and being creative when it happens for me. I couldnt imagine a world without the sounds and feelings music provides, the colours and stories told through art, the cultures and gestures of the world, and the art of performance. The inspiration to create is bliss. I think too much, it does my head in. In my world emotions are intense. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, because you cant escape what is truly there. You are not human if you dont experience life and live it for what it is worth. I want to see the world and meet people from all over. I want to laugh all my life and be around others who exert happiness and good vibes. I don't like being sad, but hey the reality is it's gonna happen. I know life isn't always peaches n cream so i am willing to accept that. But when fun is available i want to be a part of it, because laughter and good company is the key to a happy and healthy life! o0o0o and definitely beer and cuddles!!!
