About Me

»-(¯`v´&# 175;)-» Design your MySpace with MyLook «-(¯`v´&# 175;)-«My favourite toy in the whole entire universe is EeyoreA few words of self - description:Eccentric Philosophical Passionate Dreamer (head permanently in the clouds) Quirky Totally Bloody Hip and HappeningLove affair of my life is twirling around around and upsidedown to music for hours and hours on end like a fairy in a meadow.Equally love brain drain (well I guess it's a love-hate relationship): philosophical sundays involving 4 walls and the same song on repeat for hours on end.Enjoy perpetually endeavouring to thrust myself (and others) back upon our bikes: my tombstone will NOT have "What Happened" engraved on it!I have a passion for social justice and ideally strive to do something in the field of humanitarian work (here's hoping anyway)..I tutor refugees on a weekly basis - mainly in english.I did post-tsunami aid work over summer in Thailand... lived in a small called Khao Lak with 30 AMAZING people from mainly Australia, and we worked under the auspices of TVC - Thailand's own Tsunami Volunteer Center which had at the time about 300 volunteers in total working on various projects... it was probably the best experience of my life so far. Gave me some much needed life perspective and an insight into what really goes on once those seemingly incessant news flashes of disasters in the developing world disappear from our TV screens. I will never forget my time there... and being me, I had countless crazy adventures to further enhance my incredible experience! Crazy unbelievable stuff.Am a firm advocate of D-TAPDeath - To All PigeonsThe world would be a better place witout those useless ugly things! And quite frankly they reduce me to a quivering mess in foetal position if they wickedly waddle and creepily coo anywhere near me -Pigeons are my ultimate phobia. They should all be culled :)I am sometimes known as Mama Hubba (DDD) when in a depression, but like to think of myself as The Prophet (who is always right - no kidding!)My dream in life is to travel - and travel wherever the wind takes me....

My Interests
