Well, as my original intro was lost, I guess I get the chance to redo my room!!! Feel free to come on in, just PLEASE take your shoes off at the door! Thank you.
Well here's me (again)...
*NAME- Amanda
*SEX- female
*AGE- 23
*LOCATION- Hmmm... a tricky one! Currently in Durham. I spend my summers in France (miles from civilization), and spring and autumn in Wales (do sheep count as civilization? If so, then a thriving community!)
*FAV. TOYS- at the moment my fire poi, but also my juggling balls, diabolo, my new staff, guitar, mountain bike, and of course my beloved kayak!...too many more to mention!
*TWIRLING SINCE- learned bits of stuff since 2000, but only really got into it this year. I was on crutches for 3wks, after dislocating my knee (ow!), so I spent all the time learning new poi stuff (every cloud has a silver lining eh?).
*OCCUPATION- Outdoor Activity Instructor/ river guide
*HOBBIES- naturally my poi and stuff, but also do lots of kayaking, canoeing, climbing, mountain biking, snowboarding, and bits of other sports.
*FAV. PLACE- Specific favourite one is sat on the edge of the cliff, overlooking the gorge where I work in France, with nothing around for miles apart from the wild boar, and watching either the sunset in the distance, or one of the impressive lightning storms we have.
I also love anywhere where I can sit on a mountain or beside a river, hearing nothing but the noises of nature. A BIG reminder of the beauty of it all...
Anyway, thats pretty much me in a nutshell! Feel free to come and chill in my room- its a great place for relaxing and being at one with nature! (and who said i was a hippie?!
). On the plus side, tea and cakes are supplied for free!!! And if i'm feeling generous i may even let Narr in with her weird marmite/chocolate spread mix! euch!Catch you all soon,
Mand.
------------------
It used to seem to me that my life ran on too fast, and i had to take it slowly just to make the good parts last. But when you're born to run its so hard to just slow down.

Phish food's my favourite, but can only do it in very small quantities.
Jerry's jubilee??? Flavour?
(oh god, my threads gone from cakes and tea to ice cream! Do we ever talk about anything other than food here?!)

I was always scared with my mother's obsession with the good scissors. It made me wonder if there were evil scissors lurking in the house somewhere.

Yuh huh.
You *almost* got that sayin' right, whilst you were here, m'dear.
I think another visit might solidify your correct pronunciation.

nah. i doubt that. i'm convinced that brits can never get the saying quite right.
i mean look at how long joe was trying at it... I was always scared with my mother's obsession with the good scissors. It made me wonder if there were evil scissors lurking in the house somewhere.

I still say it was me that said it right!
Spitfire, you need to get learning, girl!
Maybe we could be together till one of us gets it right (as agreed by the other person)!
I do admit though, it wasn't a patch on your english accent!

Uuurrrggghhhh... still quite jet lagged, and now slightly drunk to add to it.
As I celebrated my birthday in Houston, my mates here decided they had to celebrate it with me too.
Spitfire- you offering to hire me as a geordie coach? I could fit the job description!

Oh...now that's an angle I hadn't considered! Hmm...wonder if it'd work for a work visa.

I'll hunt for your thread when I get back from the dentist.
If we don't have a full house in France, you'll get your own room... which means we get our own room!
I'll speak to my boss when I get there.
