Ah, introductions.

I'm Victoria. :)
I'm English but I live in the United Arab Emirates, I complain about that muchos.  I play guitar. Maaaaan, I sound like such a geek.

I particularly like:
-Music ( http://www.last.fm/yakkitori )
-Free Things
-Clothes
-Family
-Friends
-Gigs

I'm pretty good at making situations awkward and embarrassing myself and I'm pretty good at making people laugh.
Hmph, well I can't think of anything witty or intelligent to say, so I guess I'll end that stunner of an intro there.

Hello

Alright so i'm Seán and i don't know what to say about myself without sounding stupid but here goes. I'm Irish, strange, awkard, curious, affectionate, genuine, illegitimate and basically I'm a walking contradiction. I torment myself with many things that i have no control over but at the same time i don't actually care. I am the epitome of inconsistency but who cares. I love art in all forms. That sounds pretentious and maybe i am but i didn't say i understand art it just makes life more livable.

I'm Ruth...

My dad says I'm anti-rules, my mum says I'm idealistic and once I took an Oprah quiz that said I was depressed.
I'm a short haired, fashion obsessed film-maker (Albeit a not very good one) from Cork, I thrive on family partys where my elderly cousins sing Irish songs about war,love, poverty and occasionally some Fionn Regan, they tell storys about being young and hand around black and white pictures of their childhood in the 1920's.
Music-wise I like folk, Indie, traditional, punk, pop, basically anything I can have a dance to, I play the drums, the guitar and I'm learning the Double-bass.

I don't think I can describe my personality without sounding idiotic and I already feel ego-tistical so I'll wrap up.
Slááááán.

Oida! *waves*

Well, here we are. The first proper posts. We were thinking, let's introduce ourselves as a first post, (it's polite and all, you know?) And you guys can get to know a bit what we're all about.

Now i've been thinking about this for a bit and it seems i'm shit in introducing myself. So, i figured i'd use other people's quotes and some random pictures. (Oh I'm 'Stoeps' by the way *shakes hand*)

Couple of things i love:


Polkadots


The Boosh
(Picture taken by Ella Mullins)



Apple Pie
(And then there was me thinking i didn't like pie!)


javvinness (cannot be put in a picture, sorry)

And music ofcourse =) If you want to see some stuff i listen to, *click here*

And to top it off, some quotes:
''[Stoeps is] fun,KIND.beautiful dutch girl who loves good music and always helps seany get music when he can't get it'' (by Sean)

“Genius&NotThatPredictable&WITTY!!!” (according to Agi. Mind the capitals and 3 !!! =D)

Or put in one word: “fandabidozi” (Also from Sean)

Now, i'll leave you trying to figure out what's true and what's not.
Good night!
xx
