I'm not racist - unless 'annoying' is a race

About Me

I'm 24 years old and have just made my way back to Oz after living in Dublin. It was lots of fun, I got to meet some fantastic people, drink way too much beer and had to put up with a climate that is way too cold. :) But the travelling was fun... I also went to Edinburgh and London and hopefully I'll find my way back there!

SNAG Music

   Where has the masculinity in music gone? Where has all the grunting and thrusting of men in all their glory, trying to entice girls with their bling, rippling-abs and shaking hips, disapp...
