About Me

MyGen Profile Generator my name is Fern.
there is a fine balance between being amicably self-effacing and sounding like a twat with egotism issues trying to reach the common folk. i will try, and most likely fail miserably, to achieve this balance. i live in auckland, and have all my life. im a fan of many - but not all - varieties of music. a keen reader, from a early age, and hopefully a film buff in the making. i know far too many internet acronyms, as well as related puns, and use them far too regularly in every day conduct. i'm studying law and various european things at university. i'm also studying french, france and its charms being one of my many passions. other passions include fine quality beer, mediterreanean food and the flavour combination of mint+chocolate. i am a hopeless anglophile and nuts for manchester united/football in general. i am also a hopeless romantic. i plan to take my drinking habits and companions on a european adventure next year. i have a good sense of humour, am a Non-Smoker and love both dogs and cats.
'well, if i was getting paid a million, and i could easily get the extra ear removed, then yes, i would eat the radioactive pickle.'
i'm a shameless francophile. if paris was a person i would marry it.

-you wear ug boots outside of the house
-you like 'all kinds of music'
-you wear team kits without knowing ANYTHING about the team concerned.
-you are an inbred scenester. especially if you are an inbred scenester.
