Okay guys, I have to own up to something. I caved. I went to see The Time Traveller’s Wife.
I’d heard bad things when it first came out and decided to wait until it hit the cheap seats; I’d loved the book so much I re-read it with Sweet immediately…
Just thought I'd share my alt/indie rock Christmas playlist with you all, Happy Holidays!

I'm asking because my little city won a nation-wide contest to have Neil Gaiman come do a book signing!! He is my absolute HERO, and I totally want to meet him. But what the heck do you SAY to your absolute hero, and not look like a total prat??

This weekend, I did something I haven’t done for what feels like at least a year. And I did it two nights running. Ladies and gentlemen, this Friday and Saturday, I went to the cinema. In a world of video piracy and mass filesharing; actually decidi…
For all those 20-something bloggers who have a strong connection with England, Scotland, Wales and/or N.Ireland
I’m sure at some point in everyone’s online lives, they’ve been forwarded one of those “you know you’re __________ if…” emails, had a quick chuckle and felt pangs of nostalgia. I’m sitting here listening to the Wonder Years feature on my favourite r…
Not normally one to write about politics or current events, I couldn't help but hop on the H1N1 discussion. At work, I've somehow landed myself the position of Co-Chair of the Workplace Safety and Health Committee (yes, me, I know) and naturally, th…
Are you a nerd? Do you like Battlestar Galactica, and not just for the hot Cylon lady? Do you prefer reading Vonnegut instead of watching Dancing With the Stars? Is your idea of a fun Friday night playing The Game of Thrones boardgame? Is so, join!

Today I'm participating in my very first blog swap thanks to 20sb Blog Swap Day! I'm paired up with the lovely Erin , who was lucky enough to study and travel in Ireland before heading back to the states.

- About Me:
- I’m a 25 year old British girl currently living in chilly Winnipeg, Canada. I’m a proud indie kid who loves nothing more than devoting hours to keeping up with UK music and listening to BBC radio. I love graphic design, art, theatre, and creativity in general, but my heart lies in writing. I have a keen interest in psychology and the human mind, personality types (INFJ) and understanding, but am even more fascinated by the intricacies of the human heart as well as the way we perceive ourselves. I always try and look on the bright side of anything – no matter how hard things may seem I believe there’s a reason for everything and a learning experience in the toughest of challenges. Trust me.
I spent a big chunk of my life living a life I didn’t want to live; being around the wrong people, and being afraid to push myself out of my comfort zone. Allowing myself to be controlled by fear and anxiety. In the past year or so, I made the decision to get out there and do everything I was ever afraid of, and now I feel like I’ve really found who I want to be. I’ll continually push myself to grow, and gain experience and confidence. That means there’ll be goal lists floating around here every so often. It’s not an easy thing to be able to look back and say I allowed myself to be controlled by things over which I have no control – but if someone stumbles across my blog, and feels inspired to challenge themselves, push their boundaries and see how life can change… it’ll probably be the most rewarding thing in the world.
Right now I’m continuing that journey through life and falling more in love with the wonderful things the world has to offer, and fighting to change the things it doesn’t. I’m exploring my spirituality and purpose in this world, all sorts of amazing new music, diving into incredible books and continuing my love affair with the arts. I’m a huge music lover and animal lover… the list goes on. Let’s just say I’ll take love over hate any day, and work towards a better future rather than dwell on problems of the past.
There isn’t a great deal I dislike, but people who kick the back of your chair, being stuck behind slow walkers, the cold, animal cruelty, closed mindedness, and conflict are all surefire ways to make me one very sad panda.
There will always be a soft spot in my heart for William Shakespeare, Geoffrey Chaucer, Neil Gaiman, Mervyn Peake and any other master of the English language that leaves me feeling lucky to have been alive to see such beauty in words. I ramble on here about lots of things, but I secretly love to write fiction. I’m definitely a nerd. I love to curl up with a good book and occasionally wish I had my own personal TARDIS. I’m a sci-fi geek extraordinaire, and proud of it – I have a home-made WoW Night Elf costume, bought the hubby-to-be Dalek cufflinks, and... I may or may not have travelled to the US solely to go to a Star Trek convention.
