DON'T YOU KNOW WHO I AM??!!!

About Me

MySpace Profile Editor NO INTRODUCTION - INSTANT DENIAL!!!!
A question of identity
Confession cut with wit and style a parting of the ways. The end and the beginning. A celebration of alienated consciousness. Part art, part physical from changed young glory too…?
Vain desires and scattered moods, remote vision and great haste. Shadowy beauty and grave ecstasy and an inexhaustible restlessness and looking for life. Imprisoned perceptions and low key engagement with a world of perplexities and uncertainties, in which one can hope at best to achieve the small pleasures of life, the small satisfactions and a kind of innocence that surrounds the enigma.
Wherever she is right now, she is in her own special way, telling right from wrong and indulging in slight extravaganzas.
Where did she come from? Mainly punk and definitely the eighties but also all history encompassed. Electro, sythnpop, ebm, Goth, new romantic and always pop and all things kitsch and trashy.
Anarchy + Kitsch
Cars + Glitter
Drugs +daydreams
Night-clubs + Idealism
Sex + Paranoia
Ordinariness + Extraordinariness
Her puzzling centredness and edgy incompleteness. The question mark that always surrounds her motives, evasiveness, resistance, elusiveness, vagueness, indifference. All these things and at times the opposite.
One answer to the question might be how she manages to recreate and re-invent herself every night and yet still manages to keep one vision of herself. She danced her way out of the deep trouble and grew used to and understood the shadows.
she’s a difficult bugger but you can’t help loving her. She developed as a true original because of independence, stuck in an alternative spirit, firmly sceptical about anything ‘normal’.
She will remain a mystery to herself as well as others. She belongs to no tradition except her own….

Otherwise i will just instantly deny you...and i may do anyway without good reason! i'm a fickle woman.

Rude or unsavoury comments will get you no-where with me. If that is your attitude to me, without knowing me or women in general, you should have a bit of a look in the mirror..and your soul.
