About Me

Self Descriptions suck, just so you all know, I mean, I don't know what I'm like to other people just my likes and dislikes, but then, if you've made it this far read on. I'm a uni student, doing a bachelor of arts soon to be changing to international relations in spansish. I haven't quite got my head around this whole university thing yet, seeing as I started out doing Biomedical Science, then changed to a Bachelor of arts in english and well...here I am now. I'm big on watching movies my dvd collection is at about 80 because bastards like to steal them off me. I appreciate cinema and photography and they are my favourite mediums of art, closely followed by music, speaking of music I listen to lots of it and to describe my tastes in just one word I would say: Eclectic. I love to snowboard when I get the chance (yeah thats pretty much never, I'm at university and sometimes can't afford to eat) and I really enjoy photography and its a big hobby of mine, but judging by how much of it I've done lately you'd be hard pressed to believe it. I'm a Melbourne Demons & Wallabies fan, don't follow the NRL at all and I have about zero talent with contact sports as all my friends can attest too. I live with a bunch of alcoholic band musos. We occupy our time drinking and staying up into the stupid hours of the AM, pretty exciting huh? When I grow up (which as far as I can tell isn't going to be any time soon) I'd love to travel south america and spain adn eventually plan on moving to a spanish speaking country. I used to drive a total bomb around but the gearbox is cocked up at the moment so busses for me, which isn't too big a deal considering the price of fuel. I'm in my 5th Semester of uni and to be perfectly honest it could be going alot better. I recently got a job at the hospital here in brisbane in the food services department(I push the food trolley around and its the god damn easiest job in the whole world) I've had a few epic months of music (hold on, im going to brag here: U2 + Kanye West, Pearl Jam + kings of leon, BDO 07 (muse were the highlight of the day, hands down), Good Vibrations (J5 and the beastie boys were amazing) and the mars volta's brisbane show absolutely blew me away, words cannot describe how good that band are. The Dropkick Murphys put on an awesome show here at the arena and seeing the pixies play live at V Festival was unbelievebly good. I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4 Thats right kids, thats Chali 2na from Jurassic 5 rapping into my phone at their brisbane myspace show, pity about them breaking up.

Michels 20th

So last night was a good night. There were a few drunken incidents but nothing amounted to anything in the end so that was good. The Cops showed up around 1:45 and told us to kill the music and I thin...
