ABOUT ME

I am a slightly quirky, slightly nerdy, yet very easy-going 24-year-old.
Mostly good-humoured, I talk and laugh a lot.
I'm a loyal friend and a dedicated student.
I'm extremely clumsy, a little stubborn and a bad loser.
Literature is and will always be my first love.
I hate growing older.
I love seeing new sights.
Last but not least: I'm VERONICA FEVER #4444, roller derby girl at the Gent Go Go Roller Girls.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't live in the future nor the past, and all will be fine.

Interests

I like drawing, taking photographs, roller derby, drinking cocoa, learning new languages, baking cupcakes and other sweet treats, full skirts and dresses, making (to do) lists, lazily lying in the park with good company, curling up under a blanket with a good read, train rides, moustaches, rope skipping, brogues, rearranging stuff, flea markets, vintage shops and yard sales, he-man, reminiscing, dinosaurs, swimming in open air, museums of modern art, laughing till my mouth aches, coffee, sleep overs, dancing like a scene kid, boys with glasses, the fifties and sixties in almost every aspect, penguins, etc etc
