About Me

I come from the land Down Under, I am 38 years old, married with one child. My daughter was born extremely premature (at 24 weeks gestation) weighing a wee 658 grams equivant to the weight of an avacado and a small lemon!!. We are very lucky and she does not have any complications. A true little miracle!!Anyone wanting infomation or wanting to chat about being a parent of a premature baby is welcome to contact me.

My Interests

I enjoy shopping (what girl doesn't?), spending time with my daughter & hubby and enjoying life in general. Every day is like a new chapter in my life and I am extreamly lucky to have such wonderful people in it. My sister is my best friend and together we are thick as thieves!! I also love spending time with her.

I'd like to meet:

My all time wish would be to meet the band members of Duran Duran (in particular my favourite band member JT) In 2003 Duran Duran were here on tour with Robbie Williams and were doing some shows of their own. But unfortunately I wasn't able to attend any of their gigs due to the early arrival of my daughter. I do hope they consider touring here again and can't wait for the release of their new album which is due October this year! ..

Music:

Duran Duran, that's pretty much it!! just kidding! I love a lot of the 80's music and I enjoy a variety of music with good bass lines in them. Hence why I like the Bass God himself (JT). I associate music with events/moments & people in and around my life. A dear friend passed away suddenly in 1993. And the song that reminds me most of him is "Ordinary World", one of my all time favorites. Another favourite is "Amazing" by Alex Lloyd (an aussie artist)this song reminds me of my daughter and how strong willed she is to stay in this world. I also enjoy listening to another local band "Jet", a bit of AC/DC, Pseudo Echo, Sherbet,Pet Shop Boys,New Order, Daniel Hayes,Matchbox 20, Sarah McLachlan, Ultravox,David Bowie,Kylie and a whole lot more...

Movies:

Movies I like: Spinal Tap, The Wedding Singer,The Breakfast Club, Flash Dance,Duran Duran Blue Silver, Duran Duran Live from London,Sugar Town,Control, Moulin Rouge, Romeo and Juliet, Bridget Jones Diary, Serendipity, 50 First Dates, Sixth Sense, Sweet Home Alabama.

Television:

I am a sucker for romance, love watching: Grey's Anatomy. I also enjoy watching CSI Miami Boston Legal, and local Aussie programs about music,Chartbusting 80's, 'RocKwiz' and 'Spicks and Specks'.

Books:

Favorite book: Tuesday's with Morrie" - an inspiring book, a real tear jerker and one that makes you appreciate life in general. If only we could inspire to be a bit more like Morrie, the world would be a nicer place. Another favourite is: The Notebook, pretty much a love story!! I also enjoyed reading Duran Duran Notorious - Steve Malins

Heroes:

My heroes are the nursing staff in the NICU ( Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) they do a wonderful job under very difficult circumstances. We are forever grateful and they are always in our thoughts.
