About Me

In short; I'm a restless, indecisive, daydreamer who unfortunately has inherited the tendancy to be chronically clumsy and mal-coordinated around anything that can be broken! I am very emotional at times and i like crying, but I have a positive outlook on life and I strongly believe I can heal lifes by smiling. I'm a bit of a geek at uni, I like suduko and I enjoy sitting at a cafe by myself; watching people walk by... I love being active with excercising; dancing, running, boxing, circuits, yoga, aerobics, snowboarding, skiing, swimming, shopping, laughing.. and my philosophy is to walk anywhere instead of taking shite public transport! There is no need to ask me twice at an opportunity to go out with friends when there is alcohol, coffee or food involved in happy harmony with music. My guilty pleasures is chocolate, gossip magazines and predictable romantic comedies.

Friends, family, long distance relationships, music, film, theatre, art, books, fashion, cafe's, pub's, gig's, party's, nature; sea, sun, beach, mountains...
