I am here for Friends

About Me

Here's me, packed into nouns, adjectives and cute random sentences:aspiring film maker; aspiring aspirer. writer. musician. actress. photographer. diary addict. jazzy/rock/experimental vocalist. poet. capable of passion, love, explosive, combustive, mind blowing mental lust. my heart and mind are my strongest muscles or possibly the only ones left in use. somewhere along the lines, 'exercise' fell out of my vocabulary. futsal, pool, copulation and speed drinking still remain. rah, me. my artistic influences = the world seen through a magnifying glass; small is beautiful because each and every minute detail holds its intricacies and is in one word - awesome. life is as real as fiction and then they reverse roles again. Hollywood, marketing, capitalism, consumerism, religion, Rupert Murdoch = deadly evil.
