Hello! Thank you for swinging by! I'm an English & Cultural Studies student at Sydney Uni. I love to write, read, eat, think, dance, crochet (very slowly), listen to cruisy music and tear up at romantic movies.Sometimes I drink up to 6 cups of tea and/or coffee a day. I love all things vintage, kitsch and quirky. If I ever reincarnate, I would probably come back as a rickety grand piano. As for this lifetime, I would like to be a journalist when I graduate. Failing that, I would be just as content to spend 6 years completing a PhD on Margaret Atwood in the English Department of Harvard.

The Time Traveller's wife, The Handmaid's Tale, Alias Grace, Oryx and Crake, Pride and Prejudice, Emma, Persuasion, Harry Potter, The Book Thief, Oliver Twist, Chocolat, To Kill a Mockingbird, Lady Chatterly's Lover, The Bloody Chamber, The Talented Mr. Ripley, Bliss, Eat Pray Love, and biographies of all sorts.

Oh, do magazines count? I collect frankie, yen, russh, shop til you drop, the occasional issue of nylon, and Notebook:.

Sewing! I LOVE fabrics! Especially weird ones. Anything that requires a hot glue gun, Making notebook covers, headbands, calico bags. Customizing and upcycling, silkscreen printing, collages, Vinyl Decals, Crochet, baking.... And anything and everything ever made by Pip Lincolne or Cath Kidston! (meetmeatmikes.blogspot.com)

The Gilmore Girls Modern Family Boston Legal

... Now that I think about it, I don't really watch a lot of television! Anything with a bit of snappy dialogue will usually hold my attention though!
