About Me




My philosophy on here is it's about quality, not quantity...in other words I ain't looking for fame & fortune or to get the most number of connections. If you are, get off my cloud. Be forewarned: I only keep friends and bands on my list who interact.
Fire Horse is my chinese astrological sign, that's where I took the name. I tend to be abit shy and introspective but there's also another side to me. I love to laugh, see live bands, dance and let the lions outta the cage..lol. I'm very independant. I say what I mean and I mean what I say...I prefer to be direct. Music is like oxygen to me. I'm a Stones fan, but have very eclectic taste in music; I'm into all types of music except punk, rockabilly & heavy metal. When I was younger I played clarinet and organ. I have 2 harps and would love to learn how to play. I've also dabbled with singing lessons, ballet (as a kid, didn't last long), synchronized swimming (when I was a kid) & ballroom dancing lessons just for fun. For those who are into that sort of thing, I'm a Cappy with Leo ascendant, Moon in Taurus, Mercury & Venus in Aquarius, Mars in Libra. I'm a rather private person and have been known to be a tad antisocial at times. Don't ya just luv me now! Haha. Well I am just being honest.

What type of partier are you?
Your Result: The Lurker

You like to go out and party, go to bars, concerts, etc - but stay more on the sidelines. You are part of the action, but people have to approach you more than you jumping into the middle of the action. You typically don't get 'hammered', just buzzed enough to come out of your shell and talk to a few people, usually other 'lurkers'. Large groups of people talking at once intimidate you and you tend to drift away from the pack often.

My Interests



..

My likes: laying by the pool catching some rays with some good tunes on, animals, Starbuck's coffee, the zoo, siamese cats, music, reading, fashion shows, swimming, long walks, drawing portraits, art, going to art galleries, seeing live bands, dancing, yoga, lipstick, astrology, movies, ballet and modern dance performances, the scent of baby oil/suntan lotion/cocoa butter/Dior Addict perfume, Cherry Garcia ice cream, sunshowers, swimming in the rain, cottages, bonfires, forests, massages, the beach, jetski, canoeing, nature, photography, molson indy, people-watching at an outdoor terrace drinkin' a beer, or two, or three...who's counting? Recently purchased a funky new digital Canon 5.0 Megapixel S21S with 12x optical zoom, so I love having fun experimenting with that. I'm a certified Youth Worker, and I have a degree in Psychology, which means I can fuck with your head !! Just kidding....
Dislikes: Snobs, impoliteness, ass-kissers, players, hunters, politicians, health freaks, inconsiderate, arrogant, uncouth, conceited or self-absorbed people, dishonesty, disloyalty, violence, insincerity, people who request to add you but don't take any initiative to talk, people who don't reciprocate comments, people who go thru adding people on my friend list, people who only care about fame/fortune/shallow things....I'm sure I'll think of more later!

I'd like to meet:

Would like to meet just plain nice, interesting, down-to-earth folk. Maybe throw in some low friends in high places, for good measure, haha. I just bought an acoustic guitar, to try to learn. I like meeting artists and musicians, not that they're any bit better than anyone else! I'd like to meet someone who can teach me to blow harp. People who can make me laugh. People who love animals, especially siamese cats. Also fun people to hang out with and who love going to see live bands as much as I do. I'm fortunate to already have met most of the rolling stones, except Charlie Watts & Brian Jones. Who else I'd like to meet--the remaining members of The Doors, John Mayall's Bluesbreakers (already met John), Tom Cruise, Johnny Depp, Gwyneth Paltrow, Viggo Mortensen, Michael Douglas, David Bowie. Enough of the celebrity shit, already.
This slideshow is some of my artwork, photos I took, or that others took of me. The pic of the stones was by my brother. Some of the pix are older ones taken with my disposable camera, others are more recent taken with my Canon 5.0 Megapixel S21S with 12x optical zoom. Photography and art is just a hobby, still have a lot to learn. I'd love to take more photos of bands in the future, pretty much anything and everything that yanks my chain for that matter...
