hi all
i have been here for bout six months, and finally decided to do an intro.
hi, im pete, petey, pineapple pete and various other things. born 5 / 4 / 89. living in melbourne.
I do alot of poi, bit of staff, bit of doubles, cross staff and fire eating. i want to learn rope dart, flynt got me hooked, and im tryin to self teach 3 section staff.
I like: fire, magic, juggling and all things musical
dislikes: seafood *ick*
ive been doing magic for a bit over a year now. i do alot of sleight of hand card magic, aswell as coins and anything else i can get my hands on.
in my spare time i like to do escapology. I can pick my way out of a pair of US police handcuffs in under 10 seconds, and get out of a straight jacket underwater
thanks for reading me,
cheers, pete

hey petey, *squishes your nose, very very gently*
ilsanya, if you ever come to melbourne, feel free to crash in my lounge, unless of course your a homocidal maniac, with the intent of killing me and my boyfriend, and possibly my cat and neighbour. otherwise fell free
