I work in a bakery, so there is many an early morning and rather little sleep involved in my life......In between working, working and working, (no more uni, it's all over! Yay letters at the end of my name!) i like to see my frinds (whether they like to see me is debateable) go travelling, I try and make it to the gym and do very nanna-esq stuff like sewing and knitting. Love a bit of a stupid sock creature too! I am really independent, and learnt to be very ok with being alone, (this is often a detrimental trait) so most of what i like to do is a bit on the loner side..."Im a loner Dotty, a rebel"

Like I said above, I am a little bit of a nanna, I like to sew, generally softies (toys) and have found through swap bot the very fun dotee doll, I also dabble in the occasional stupid sock creature. One of my favourite things to make is toys from a brand called Kalikå from Sweden, they are gorgeous soft toys!!!! I also dabble in a bit of scrapbooking, embroidery, knitting ( though i am am not very good!) and anything really that takes my fancy. I started trying quilting last year with a flurry of baby cot blankets.

I am pretty much a fan of color full stop. I studied art so love all shades and hues equally, so go with whatever you think fits or suits your design... I'll love it anyway.... though i am a fan of RED. Style wise.... well themes are great, so go with them, let loose..... personally i am rather eclectic and messy..... but I am a really easy going person and love everything, especially creativity and originality

I am a obsessive Cupcake maker..... you can check out what I mean through Flickr (user obliviousfire or on Facebook http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=207108&id=798995506&l=08d1a9e7d6 ) I also have a weird love of home-wares, bedding especially, and fabric. I collect snow-domes from all over the world that I or my family or friends have been to.

Last year I had an amazing time in Europe, 4 months of blissfull travel. Met absolutely amazing and wonderful people and had a ball! Got to go to my soul's home - Vimmerby and see my Swedish mums, dads and siblings again, it still blows my mind how much I love those people!

Other than that usually I'm pretty damn boring really, and have no life!!! Starting work at 6am 5 days a week tends to kill any wiff of a social life... though I am thinking I had better start getting one, as I am tiring of the single life (yay more than 26 years now!!!.... wait and watch me turn into a dithering 15 year old and seriously crash and burn!)

I jest that i am an artist, had my first and only non-uni-related exhibition in July '06, and prior to that had a mad, mad time with Kaz and Steph in NZ..Yay I got to ski on my birthday!!!!! Am working my arse off right now to pay off my 4 month trip to europe, and save up for my next big adventure.. (moving to the UK.... and traveling South america)
