About Me

DISCLAIMER: The information contained herein has it's basis in the truth, but may be embellished in an effort to make the subject seem interesting.My name is Rachel, i'm from a little little town called Wellstead in the South West of Australia. I grew up on a farm, have 2 brothers and 2 sisters and can only eat pies using a teaspoon. Now I live in Perth with one of my brothers and one of my sisters in the house that jack built. I'm in my third year of a four year course studying an acting/teaching double degree and i do a music minor on the side. I'm a singer/songwriter (www.myspace.com/ramblingsandrhetoric) and i can't go for more than a couple of days without my guitar. I've been working part-time at a yacht club pulling beers and eating the complimentary after dinner mints, whilst saving like crazy to go travelling to the UK and Europe in June and July. That's rather soon actually...i should probably be organising stuff. Anyway, things are ticking along quite nicely in Rachel-land...that's all for now.
