What happens in my world? Sometimes I drive through a creek to a shop where I sell skis and fur hats. Sometimes I drive over the harbour bridge to see boys with guitars and dirty jeans jump on stages. Sometimes I write words, sometimes I make radio, sometimes I play soccer.
What makes me happy? Fresh snow, road trips and mix tapes from new friends. Brown paper packages tied up with string, they have CD�s in them! Flights that land safely. Adventures on the other side of the world. Adventures on the other side of the road. Walls in a new radio station.
What I hate? Being the only one whose ID still gets checked. Great bands on the same night. People who can�t keep promises. Rain when I want to go out. Sun when I have to work.
Untrue rumours my friends have been known to spread�.
Chris thinks I must be a gun on a snowboard.
Danny thinks I know things about music.
Julie thinks my German is fluent.
Think you know me yet?"
