About Me

I'm told I have an (almost) unhealthy obsession with ironing..does it help that my life is run shunting between laundry and ironing...oh and some people believe I have too many clothes (???) thats not true, i just don't have the storage space.

I design toys. They're mostly for handicapped kids..I like it.. !

Everyone on here says they love to travel..might as well join the bandwagon.. on top of my list right now is Africa. although at this point in time I'll go anywhere I havent been before...some people find it strange that I keep journals (the old fashioned way) when I'm on vacation...

I enjoy different cuisines.. and not Olive Garden Italian - if you know what I mean? Eat anything that used to move, as long as its been fought BEFORE it gets to my plate.

hmm.. this is strange.. see my pictures, post a comment... or two..read the blog.....see how simple it is !

......

My Interests

travelling, music, FOOD, working out, sketching, sports, Mixing drinks... drinking them.... mixing some more... its vicious....doodling, movies, escapism... reading.. actually buying books with the hope that I will read them sometime.. and last but generally the most time consuming... PROCRASTINATING !!!!......

I'd like to meet:

normally 'people'... but sometimes i make exceptions.........

Music:

really mood dependant could range from Prodigy, Ian Van dahl, darude to princess superstar, dido, de phazz. Happen to love compilations - Buddha Bar, cafe del mar etc.. maybe its just the recent lounging mood... 4 strings, lasgo, Groove Armada, alice Deejay... umm.. just ask me.. chances are if they're good, european, or cool i would have heard of them......

Movies:

again anything, but horror movies - Get scared.. yeah ! Why would i pay money to be scared.. geez people... see the light.. actually see a comedy.. ! ......

Television:

Not much - but with my recent direct TV installation (hasn't really changed much....)- that might change. Nope still hasnt changed - some people say i know about the shows but i dont watch them... duh.. keep your eyes and ears open !......

Books:

The Alchemist, The known world, kite runner.. and loads of non fiction.. tipping point, blink... design books.. post secret.. (what !! it makes my issues seem trivial)

Heroes:

M.C. Escher !!!!

Everytime I hear an insiprational story...it changes.. maybe I an a hero whore... Da Vinci...
