Happiness is a state of mind...something you choose ...not something you can find

About Me

I'm not who I appear to be....the saying is true...Don't judge a book by its cover....I'm into the simple things in life...spending time with friends and family is a must...its what keeps me functioning.
Love traveling....seen most of the USA, Canada, UK and Switzerland and recently parts of Belgium...have yet to discover many more amazing places.
Theatre is where my heart is. Its like this undying love to be on stage and act....not for the famous part (although that would be an added advantage)...but rather for the simple love of theatre that I have.
SOME OF THE GREATEST MOMENTS I'VE EXPERIENCED
Seeing UK with Ang, going to all the little undiscovered places;
Going to Brugges....trying Belgium waffles and eating Belgium choc till I felt ill;
Feeling speechless when standing at "Ground Zero" and imagining what 9/11 must of felt like...really makes u appreciate all u have;
There was mine and Riaan's 1st trip together....one whole month in Switzerland...will never forget it;
Going to St Thomas...the Carribean is so wonderful;
Spending two weeks of PURE FUN in Vancouver....;
Live Gigs....Jack Johnson, Counting Crows, Beach Boys, Green Day, Good Charlotte, Yellow Card, Sum 41, The Annual Vans Warped Tour...hell saw so many bands in USA I've even forgotten....;
Riaan dragging me along to Cradle Of Filth
Snowboarding in Michigan...well at least attempting it...haha...was AWESOME and at least i didnt break anything =)
Meeting Jack Johnson;
Spending my very 1st night in London walking the streets with Riaan;
p.s. there are 35 pics in my slide show...if you wondering :P

My Interests

RIAAN :D

Traveling...although I would consider that more of a passion then anything else.

I love to dance...never been for lessons, but I do have LOADS of fun when I get to dance....oh and shoes (sparkle in my eye)...and amusement parks...such an adrenaline junkie =)

Well basically anything fun and daring :D ALWAYS up for having a good time :P

I'd like to meet:

No one person in particular...ok maybe peter pan and the dali lama :P And maybe Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn :D

But basically anyone who is true to themselves. I cant stand people who are fake and pretend to be something/someone they're not.

One learns something from everyone...be it positive or negative...so it really doesn't make a difference.

Music:

Almost everything....but not the biggest fan of RnB and Hip Hop....but then again...not all of it is that bad either =)

Movies:

Anything worth watching...but most oldies....My Fair Lady, Les Miserables, Sound of Music...lets just say I like the black and white movies...and Audrey Hepburn has real talent...not like the useless actors/actresses these days...oh and Johnny Depp's stuff is all amazing.

Television:

Havent watched TV in a very long time...so not even sure of the new episodes that are out.

Books:

Ive come to read quite a bit while living in the UK...recently finished "Marley and Me" great book for all you animal lovers out there =)

Heroes:

ghandhi ... dunno why but he's this kewl Indian oke with round glasses...anyone who thinks they've made some kind of impact on my life...yes...that would be you :P

My Blog

travel bug

What can i say....guess i have ants in my pants....just cant stay still in one place....so thats me....heading off to the uk...but this time i will make it my "home base" to earn cash and then travel....

the world is my stage

i've decided that the world really is my stage....or better yet OUR stage. We're all actors playing our parts.Having said that i have also come to the conclusion that nobody really cares about anyone...
