Music, Movies, and Books

Seriously? How can I answer this. My taste in music is eclectic. I tend to like action and superhero movies, but I also like comedies. If I'm in the mood for a trashy romcom, that can be my favorite thing to watch. I read a lot. When I was younger, mostly fiction, but now I read more non fiction, but I still read tons of YA fantasy and dystopian fiction, along with literary novels and interesting biographies and things like that. I'd have to type for an hour to really describe all of this...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I buzzed my hair a while back, taking advantage of the fact that I'm far from people in the States who'd judge me for it. I got some nasty comments on facebook, predictably, but people here loved it. Schoolkids are required to keep their hair short, so everyone told me how young it made me look.
