Hi. I'm Jill.
Hi. I'm Jill, and I'm a grab-bag of contradictions.
Hi, I'm Jill, and I'm a disgruntled rain cloud that rains bobby pins all over the carpet.
Hi, I'm Jill, my hair blown back by the wind, a river in the sky, a fiery comet tail, my head in constant freefall. As someone once said.
Hi, I'm Jill. I'm really bad at writing introductory auto-biographic posts, the ones where you're suppose to sum up yourself nice and quickly while still leaving the reader feeling as if they know you, body, mind, soul and intestinal tract (can that be filed under "body"?... well, no, because technically the intestinal tract is just a hole inside your body and I need to stop thinking) while all the while giving the impression that you're fun loving and oh-so-deep, simultaneously. It's near impossible task. So, instead, here are just a few things about me:
I have a white Geo and it's name is Mouse because it looks like a mouse. It lives in a hole next to my garage.
I only know one magic trick. And, no, I won't tell you the secret because it's all I've got.
I absolutely adore art. I kind of pretend that I'm an artist, but really, I'm just relearning everything. I can barely draw a straight line. If I could do anything at this point (or in the future), I'd love to be a freelance illustrator/artist, traveling the world (but I would settle for free reign of the continent, too) and showing my brightly coloured works off at galleries and shows, filling childrens' books with imaginative illustrations, and blowing minds left and right. Unfortunately, I have a long way to go, and no plan.
I'm a very nervous person.
I'm 22, a Gemini with a Pisces moon, I study culture and art at university, I work at a record store, and no, it's not like Empire Records nor as cool as all the 14 year olds think it is, my favourite colour is green, I have one brother, two lizards and a foreign lover... boyfriend... person. When we're not in the same country, we talk in parenthesis.
I'm also missing a whole lot of bobby pins. If it turns out the vaccum didn't eat them, let me know if they turn up, won't you?
