My Life and First Impressions

So first things first, here's a little about me. Even though for my friends who read this, this is pointless. But you never know, you might learn something you didnt know :)

I study Architecture and procrastinate alot. Hence this blog. But i do love it. Im sure ill rant on about it in a post one day. Warning number one.
I live in Tasmania, Australia and before you start picturing me in the desert riding Kangaroo's to school, no. Tasmania is like the closest thing you'll get to England in Australia. So this is my home, or rather, i pciture of my garden with my beautiful parents waving at me inside it:
My dad is i guess you could say, a slight push over. But he has to be. To live with Mum. Dad is in the farming industry. Mum. I admire my mum for a lot. She is a doctor. She was a fulltime doctor even throughout having four daughters. and She raised us magnificantly. I hope to be like her when i have my own family.

I have Three beautiful sisters. Yes we are all blonde. Runs in the family. The Broun Girls. We're all different although we may not look it but people know it when they talk to us.
Kirsty (Furthest Left) is the over achiever Part-time Professional Cyclist, Australian Criterium Champion and Lawyer. Never get in an arguement with her. Or a push up competition for that matter, you will lose. You too gym junkies. One time, she made a gym junkie run from her at the pub because she flexed. Was hilarious.
Heidi (Furthest right) is the beautiful caring peacekeeper. She's a teacher. But she has always been the peace keeper. One year we went on a family holiday without her. Mum swore she would never leave the house again.
Dayna, she's the bubbly popular girl that everyone is always jealous of. Plus she's also an over achiever. (A lot to live up to, i know). She studied business resource management and now works for the University of Tasmania. I dont really know what she does but i know she gets to travel to other universities all over Australia and she designed an engineering degree once.

We always say that our family, wish their professions combined, could rebuild the world after an apocolypse.
All the things you need after an apocolypse:
  • Agriculture System (Dad)
  • Health Care system (Mum)
  • Justice System (Kirsty)
  • Education System (Heidi)
  • Business System (Dayna)
  • Infrastructure/building System (Me!)
Done, done and done! There you go noah. Next time there's a flood, dont forget the essentials (Us).

Anyway,
I love love love love love board sports!!! Anything with a board i love it! I dont know why. Anything sideways. I use to be a front on gal. Snowskiing from when i was a little tike but ever since switching to snowboarding, i cant get enough of the whole sideways trend. I love love love love wakeboarding almost more than snowboarding and my family is also in a waterski club:

We set a record once (for more details go here):

and every year i go on a Snowboarding trip with my friends, usually to NZ (this year, im organising it, god help us):


Love my friends more than anything and there is just way too much awesomeness of them to put in one post so ill probably rant about them every now and then. There's your second warning. But here they all are (most of them anyway):

I love film. and mix that with my love of action sports and you have this:
My Youtbe Channel :) 
 Every now and then when im studying hardcore and depressed about not being able to do fun stuff, i watch all the videos on there :S

Thats pretty much it i think. I mean there is a lot of other things like my love of Nintendo 64 and Dragonball Z and retail therapy (slight shopping addiction there) but nothing of really big importance in my life.

I think a lot of people when they first meet me think that i am this nice girl that is blonde and normal with nothing more to her than her annoying neverending happiness. But there is. I mean yes i am annoyingly pleasant all the time and people seem to get really annoyed by that and assume that i must have bi-polar but no i am just happy. I mean yeah i get sad when i hit birds with my car or when shit stuff happens just like anyone else but i never fall into a massive thing of depression and spend forever getting over it. i mean i dont know why. I think people think that i would and that because i am so happy i clearly dont know whats out there in the world. But i think i do. and thats why i am happy. I dont see any point in being sorry for myself or being sick with sadness and not trying to get rid of it because 'its who you are'. I know when im happy and i know when im sad and when im sad i try to fix it.

In no way am i ever going to say this YOLO thing everyone always uses cause it pisses me off but there is some truth in it. i mean most of the time im like "nah shit, i thought we lived twice" but really there's no point in staying home cause you cant be bothered going out and having to talk to people. Thats just lazy and naive. Naive because you never know what could happen or what interesting people you could meet.

I guess for me thats my secret passion. I mean apart from architecture, music, film and all the normal stuff, its meeting people and hearing their stories, empathising with them and sharing passions. Picturing what it would be like to live in their lives. And before people get all "oh so she's not happy, she wants a different life", no. Im interested. Not obsessed.

Anyway so your average normal blonde chick would not normally wakeboard, watch dragonball Z and love musical opera's at the same time. So no need for labels here folks. Everyone is different and i believe no one fits a 'mould'.



Phantom of the Opera- My favourite.
