About Me

CURRENT MISSION

hmm..i suppose my mission at present is to get out of australia.

ABOUT ME

I'm 19 and studying Arts/Music at Melbourne University (just starting my second year) majoring in performance and english. I am definitely a Melbournian born and raised. All who have been to Australia will know that Melbourne is definitely THE city to come to. And those who disagree in favour of, say Sydney should be shot.

My Dad is from Germany, so I've visisted Europe a couple of times but not extensively, or by myself.

I'm a pretty affable person, and I love to be thrown out of my comfort zone and into the deep end.
I like to think I'm pretty funny, albeit kind of random...well, my friends say I'm have quite a unique sense of humour. But don't let that be a deterrent, I'm not a nutter.

PHILOSOPHY

I am a firm believer in logic. I can never understand people who make rash life decisions without thinking logically. That said, I also am a firm believer in living in the moment and making impulsive decisions.
Some may say this is dichotomous....I say that life is about balance.

Interests

Music (studying at uni), reading, fun (in any way, shape or form), change...really, this is very general. Just ask, i won't bite.

  • arts
  • performing arts
  • reading
  • music
  • logic

Music, Movies, and Books

movies: requiem for a dream, memento, brokeback, godforsaken, the dark crystal, scream trilogy (hilarity)

music: silverchair (aussie band...all i can say is daniel johns), dissociatives, mozart, madge, lior, rufus wainwright, bjork, soulwax, royksopp, cave in, muse....the list goes on.

books: austen, chekov, tolstoy, dickens, enid blyton (childhood wouldn't have been the same without her), ok, this section has gone long enough....you don't really care.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Definitely staying in Bad Ischl in Austria. So beautiful and quaint. Felt like the 19th century.
