Take five!
Ummm..... Sterne passed me on this meme. I'm sorry I just can't help myself. I love lists.
Read on....
10 Years Ago:
I was at uni in Brisbane studying to be a journo, I was working in a 7 - 11. I lived in a house that cost $33.00 a week in rent. I got stoned, drunk and worse for fun. I listened to Sisters Of Mercy, The Misfits, The Meanies, The Smiths, Faith No More and NIN a lot. I wore vintage Chanel lookalike suits with fishnet stayups decorated with roses at the top. These were clearly visible as my skirts were waaaay short. I had black Louise Brooks bobbed hair and toward the end of the year I wore lots of red lipstick. I was a "university lesbian".
5 Years Ago:
I met my first long term partner and we broke up in 2004 (you all know the rest) I got around in kooky eyeglasses and large Queen Latifah style turbans. I lived in a house that was $100.00 a week rent. I was Djing a lot and had a residency at a lesbian Drag King club every Friday. I worked as waitress and a sales rep for a Melbourne street press. I was listening to heaps of 70's soul sisters, Erykah Badu, Bette Davis, and electropop stuff like Electrelane, Looper, Princess Superstar and Peaches. Happy with my lot.
1 Year Ago:
Blogging, suffering though a terrible crisis that I thought would do me in. Drinking, Drugging and Fucking. Trying to find meaning in it all. Listening to very sad music. I was living in house that was $250.00 a week rent.
Five Yummy Things
Champagne, MLI's kisses, Cadbury's Milk Chocolate topping, really good olives, red wine
Five songs I know by heart:
I'm going with Sterne on this - I'll have to do Albums too.
Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars - David Bowie
Ok Computer - Radiohead
Horses - Patti Smith
In It For The Money - Supergrass
The White Album - The Beatles
Five things I would do with a LOT of money:
Buy my mum, dad, brother and sister a house.
Give money to my beautiful friends to sit on their asses and write masterpieces.
Commission Camille Rose Garcia to paint my portrait.
Take Ninja lessons
Donate a shitlaod of money and time to AIDS research
oh! and just one more
Call me elitist but I would love to revive the artists' salons of old...
Five things I would never wear:
Hotpants
Bib and brace overalls
one piece bathers
slouchy boots
Any tshirts promoting a band just for the "cool" factor. Posers feck off
Five favourite TV shows:
Six Feet Under
Neighbours
The Office
Nighty Night
Alan Partidge
Five things I enjoy doing:
Listening to music.
Discovering new art
Swimming
Seeing bands
Looking fabulous
Five people I want to inflict this on:
Melbourne Girl - do tell says the curious
Brisbane Window - because it will be filthy
Desci - Sure to be funny
Fluffy, because she loves a meme
Spirit Fingers - because I want to see how she will twist this inside out.
