Leave me dreaming on the bed. See you right back here tomorrow.

About Me

Random and forgetful. If I see someone on a bike without a helmet, I tend to yell "Where's your HELMET!?!". Usually from a moving vehicle. I work in hospitality, but would prefer admin [stationery fan]. I studied Land Management & Conservation at Uni, it opened my eyes to the environment, and how no ute is complete without a Bundy sticker! My main interest is pro-tennis; I support Europeans you've never heard of. I'm sometimes cynical or sarcastic. People don't always pick up on it and end up talking to me like I'm clueless. I get it, you just didn't get my joke. I also use my dads lines. You have been warned. "Try it. It'll put hair on your chest".
I love animals, especially Cody! I laugh at the wrong time. I'm addicted to Milo. I enjoy live music, mainly the guys to the left, highlighted in green. I'd like to assist in the rehab and conservation of wild Orangutans. Overpopulation, [lack of] animal rights and land degradation matter to me. Poor language skills irritate me; "I didn't say nothin'" and "I seen him" make no sense! I dislike clowns, circuses, arrogance and aggression. If you really want to tick me off, call me Kirsten.
I'm a vegetarian [and proud:)]. I try not to let it define me, but in a big way it does. A lot of what I do is influenced by my lifestyle. I don't preach, it's a personal choice, but am happy to answer questions and offer a different perspective. Overall I think I'm pretty easy going. I try not to stress about things, because it's a waste of time [unlike myspace, right?].

Earthlings: Dependence on, misuse and disrespect of animals for Pets, Food, Clothes, Entertainment and Science. It will challenge your way of thinking. It's intense, graphic [0:55:05] and the most detailed video I've seen. I think it's important that people have an opportunity to see it. Don't let me put you off! You might get a lot out of this video.

This next one is about factory farming. It's not graphic and does not contain slaughter or violence, but confinement.

Give me more time to feel this way - 3 October

Last night we sat with some women who had been at the Sunday show as well. They knew where to go afterwards to err 'stalk' for lack of a better word. We were ten rows from the front which was absolute...
