Name: Lex
Location: Brisbane, Australia
Hometown: Brisbane
Birthday (sign?): Virgo/Libran (23rd Sept)
Age: take your pick... some mornings i feel 50+ but when i twirl... 22 =)
Sex: Male
Occupation(s): Plasterer
Favorite Food(s): is Food considered a favourite? or is that too general.
Favorite Color(s): Yellow
Toys: Poi, learning staff
Hobbies other than the obvious: Rock climbing, chillaxing
Education: Cert 4 in Programming
Favorite Book(s): Skolian Saga -> Catherine Asaro, Anything by Robin Hobb.
Godzilla vs. a Star Wars Star Destroyer. Who wins? Why? Destroyer, why? well if the sh*t hits the fan, it can leave the planet and blow the hell out of it. easy.
Favorite TV show(s): DBZ, Technoman, few others
Plans for life in general: (i.e. what you want to do when you grow up) Younger
Do you think these pants make my butt look too big? Show me the picture first and the bribe
Favorie ice cream flavor(s): all good
Marmite, Vegemite, or Nutella?* Well being opposed to Marmite (tastes like crap) i'd have to side with both Nutella And Vegemite. You just cant compare two different flavours, like comeon. Nutella and say Coles Nut Spread... sure. =P
Okay so thats the questionaire thing... ah. Right.
Okay so i started twirling on Australia Day this year (26th Jan 08) picked up bfly and 3bt weave and was happy with that for months, then around er may? i went a tad crazy. Ask Sam/Ry/Brian/Keyargh-ra etc, they dont believe me
Working on atm: Bfly Antispin progressions (3steps forward, 2 back -> to make the pattern move slowly around), antispin hybrid flowers?? (basically one isolated hand and the other longarms following the head of the poi, making pretty pretty flowers while doing so ^_^)...
Yeah, i like to hurt my brain =D
Also anyone that lives in Brisbane -> Come to Tuesday twirls! Corner of Baroona rd and Haig rd, Milton -> Gregory Park near the tennis courts.
Catchas round

Meh - I'm alergic to both marmite and chocolate so I've never understood the question at all.
(I think I cant eat vegemite and by association I'd guess I cant eat promite either)

I'd like to say I'll try come along to jj this week, but... let's face it, my predicting such, is usually a sure sign that I won't make it.
so... I'm definitely not necessarily not going to be there.
