About Me

Myspace Layouts by Pimp-My-Profile.com

Well, this is where I tell you about myself and try to make myself sound way more interesting than I actually am. Hang on..... mmmm... nope I got nuthin! Ok, ok, here goes... I’m confident, funny, happy, healthy, and always try to catch a glimpse of that silver lining people always talk about – you know, the glass half full kinda stuff. I’m told my energy is contagious, but so was that nasty rash I had last Summer and that didn’t win me any friends! Hahaaaa – see I told you I was funny. Modest too I’m told :o) I keep fairly active and try to exercise 3-5 times a week, whether it be just going for a walk/jog, or going to the gym. Sometimes, time and energy just doesn’t allow for it, so you can find me taking an afternoon kip on the couch on occasions. Oooh, I love the kip. You know Australia really should adopt the siesta concept. Sure there’d be plenty of people waking up with pillow hair & drool on their faces BUT they’d be happy! The reason I think I love the kip, is coz I'm don't or can't sleep in, in the mornings! I’m awake early most days for work, and on the weekends I just can’t seem to break out of that habit – and I don’t like to waste my days by staying in bed, unless it’s with someone else. Only then is the day worth wasting!!

My Interests

Ok, I work two jobs at the moment, so although I have many different interests, after eating, sleeping and exercise there is little time/energy to get into too much. Exercising is kinda an interest as well as a health & fitness thing. I really love a nice brisk walk if I’m not feeling up to a big workout. I enjoy going to the movies or staying in to watch a dvd. I like to read when I’m in the right mind space. I have a short attention span, so I can’t really sit still and read for too long unless the book is totally captivating (even watching a movie can be a struggle at times). In Summer, I absolutely love going to the beach (unless it’s over 35 degrees, then it’s just too hot to do anything). I’m a huge fan of dancing. I love love love to dance!!! I love watching all kinds of dance too – anything from hip hop to latin to belly dancing. It’s interesting and sometimes so intense, to see how some people can express themselves thru dance. I enjoy cooking, but not so much when it’s just me. I enjoy it most when I have someone to cook for (family, friend or partner). That’s when my culinary skills are best displayed. My favourite food to cook would be rack of lamb with garlic & rosemary and roast baby potatoes, pumpkin and my “special” vegie mix…maybe that’s my favourite thing to eat too! Although my pasta sauces are pretty damn good, I am a massive fan of the Fettecine Cabonara at Loinel’s in St Kilda. Best ever! I love hanging out with my friends, watching our favourite weekly tv show instalments. Grey’s Anatomy, House & Thank God You’re Here are pretty much the only shows I can’t miss – and if I do, I’m just not the same til the next episode comes around.

I'd like to meet:

Eminem, Robbie Williams, Seth Green, Jim Carey, Dean Koontz.Hmmmm, a "happy medium" guy would be nice, but does such a guy exist? In terms of meeting a partner, I just want someone that makes me deliriously happy & vise versa - effortlessly.

Music:

House, Trance, Breaks – stuff that I can dance to. I like a bit of the Pop I hear on the radio. Not into anything too heavy, but I don’t mind some stuff from Metalica. I love Hip Hop and Rap (thanks to the influences of Ricky who was a mad Hilltop Hoods fan). Eminem is a long time favourite, as is Robbie (went to his concert when he was here in Melb, thank you very much!) Williams. But at the other end of the scale, I like Michael Buble and some classical tunes here and there. I grew up with Elvis and just can’t seem to stop myself from singing along to anything I hear of his. Michael Jackson is awesome - a genuis, although a little kooky – we won’t go there… Most genius' were crazy mofo's anyway!

Movies:

Sooooo many movies, so little memory. 8 Mile, Last Boy Scout, Bad Boys, Girl Interupted, Stand By Me, School of Rock, Can't Harldy Wait, Encino Man, Requium for a Dream (that really freaked me out). Love Acutally, The Green Mile, Forest Gump, Face Off... soooo many more...

Television:

Grey’s Anatomy, House, Criminal Intent, Thank God You’re Here, Whose Line Is It Anyway? , 60 Minutes, Seinfeld, The Simpsons, Family Guy...

Books:

Illitteruts for Dummies is a exelent reed... heheee But seriously folks, anything by Dean Koontz is what you'll catch me trying to read :p

Heroes:

My sister Lisa and my brother Dan.
