If you're a battery, you're either working or you're dead... That's a pretty shit life!!

About Me

Finished up at Uni last year, just got back from travelling around the world with my friends Kate, Kirsten & Julie for 4 months. In January starting a grad position as a recruitment consultant... but for now enjoying the time off! __________________________________________ * I _ l o v e . . . * : A good sleep in, waking up to a coffee (with a fresh croissant... my ultimate breakfast!), finishing exams and being on holidays in the Summer, going away on holidays, travelling, my friends (they're all different and special in their own ways, and I would go crazy without them), dancing/clubbing/drinking (especially having that perfect amount of alcohol, where you're at a perfect drunkeness and can still remember (most) of the night), Christmas, chocolate, shopping (especially finding that rare bargain), going to a concert to see a band I'm obsessed with and feeling overwhelmed, speaking in French, meeting new people, having a reeeeally good laugh, having the place to myself on the weekend, listening to loud music in my car, driving with the window down in summer (ahhh lol), Spring Racing Carnival, getting all dressed up, going to the hairdresser, earning money (ie. more than I know what to do with! Doesn't happen too often haha)... And I love my dog, Rajah... ______________________________________________ But I hate: Having to wake up early Getting a headache People who either tailgate or drive way too slow (in the right lane!!) Really bad spelling (lol don't know why... now the pressure's on me to spell perfectly!) People who big-note themselves in a big way, or make up absolute crap to make themselves seem cool When people try to force their extreme opinions onto other people.
