Twenty One, no different to Twenty.

About Me

No use putting ages in here, because chances are it'll be '08 before I update this puppy again...I work in the entertainment industry as a producer for the biggest radio station in Tasmania. It is, as you'd imagine, busy.I've taught classes at Uni, worked in a call centre, studied, worked at Macca's, and been a media personality in the 3rd largest city in Western Australia.All this before my 21st Birthday. I've been pretty lucky so far.I'll go back to Uni in '08 as a part timer while I work, and try and finish off that pesky media and marketing degree, of which I'm nearly 2 years in (due to me deciding while Law was do-able, it wasn't what I wanted to do).I hate to sound like a 14 year old girl, but friends are, like, the bestest thing ever. Without friends, you can't see who you really are. I'm lucky in this aspect too, because I've got a lot of friends, and a few really good ones. If you're the type of person that doesn't really recognise that, then take a look around you, and see those around you for how important they are in the scheme of things.I'm competitive. I like to win. If I don't win, I become disappointed. I set attainable goals. I attain them. Simple formula really, but it's worked out well so far, so I'll keep at it.When I lose, I become driven to win next time. It's not how you fall, its how you pick yourself up. I thrive on competition, and improvement.I'm a baller. If I had the choice between being rich beyond my wildest dreams and being able to play basketball every single day of my life... I'd choose both, and play in the NBA. But seriously, basketball is my release. It's my muse. I can get tired from running a track or lifting weights, but I become numb to pain when I'm running a court or jacking up hundreds of shots. I'm not claiming to be great, or even very, very good; but the game drives me.

My Interests

Radio and sport. Combine those two and you'll see what I want to do.

I'd like to meet:

David Carusso, so he can take off his sunglasses while I yell "YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAHHHHHHHH! Meet the new boss! Better than the old boss...."CSI Miami is the shit, and Horatio is the baddest man on the planet.View All Friends | View Blog | Add Comment

People and Things I Hate, Part 1

Right.  I was surfing the blogs and pages of MySpace instead of working (if they banned this page at work, it'd be like taking away a junkie's supply), and I looked at a few blogs here and there....
