that's the more alternative/rock/funk/pop kind of stuff i really love, & if you haven't heard you should! i love classical music btw. just can't ever remember the composition names.

i enjoy tooheys new & heineken beer. my favourite wine is "some young punk's passion has red lips". my guitar is a mexican strat. my strings are ernie ball or bullets.

as far as tv is concerned i love the office (comedy). i also love cooking & how-to-make-stuff shows & summer heights high (comedy). i like rage (music videos), house md (drama), ncis (mystery), life begins (drama), neighbours (soap).

my favourite poet is walt whitman.
my favourite writer at the moment is philip pullman.

movies, oh i don't want to mention them all. i like all genres and respect good scripts. i will mention a few films & actors below:

thumbsucker, amelie, happenstance, dude where's my car, children of paradise, the recruit, phonebooth, rumblefish, lost in translation, batman begins, starwars, nowhere in africa, imagining argentina, harvey, man on the moon, the truman show, eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, benny & joon, great expectations, romeo & juliet (baz's)

actors: christian bale, leonardo dicaprio, jim carrey
i can never decide my favourite actresses.

i played a game called subspace for ages. (addict) don't play this game. you're warned.

i have two sisters, im the middle child and they both got fantastic results from school, where as I didn't... but I'm smarter (so they say), just a bit more insane.

i'm obsessive compulsive about some things but can't organise myself.

i'm probably delving a little deep for this right?

oh and i love dancing. when i'm out, i'm on of those people who just shamelessly go all out, no matter how silly i impossibly could have looked. :D

i think when i die, i'll become a muse because i have so many ideas!
many of the million dollar ones i've noted so as to live in the house/garden i've designed. eat all the blueberries & figs & banana i can and avoid debt. yeah i love the fruit that much. joking, i should say mortgage/material items etc. plus i want to be able to afford a sexbot/cleaner bot when im older.

have missed a lot of opportunities for real relationships @ this stage - i do want one now though, thinking i'm ready. :D

i'll find a photo to post eventually... and when i'm ready, give you the link to my band's space where you can find songs i've written!!

bye for now

:hello: G'day Mate!

Great to hear from the mighty land
down under!

But what part of Aussie-Land do you
hail from? As you're just about as big
as USA!

:eek:
 
Welcome Heath from Australia,
I have two sons 18 & 22 and a daughter 15 who probably know more about your Top Ten.
Nice to have you here.
