About Me

Girl Afraid is your average trash culture-loving, big boot-wearing chick who changes her hair colour every week and can't get enough leopard print. She is constantly on the lookout for interesting stuff, be it music, films, telly, people, clothes, ideas, and has been known to create some of her own interesting things.
She loves the horror genre; nothing gives her greater pleasure than sitting down on an evening with yet another god-awful film.
Generally she isn't perfect, she's got some flaws, but if you can't handle them, bugger off and play with the traffic.
She has no time for wanna-bes, has-beens, should've beens and any other waster. Having said that, she's no snob, just has a low tolerance of bullshitters (as well as self-aggrandizing, solipsistic ego queens).
On the upside she's been described variously as chatty, witty, flirty, funny, sexy, arsey and smashing. She doesn't necessarily agree with all that.
