Introductions!

Well, I decided that I need a real blog, other than my LiveJournal, which is full of crap from over a year ago and before. So here it is. I doubt many people will read this blog, if any, but if someone does, please comment!

I suppose a short introduction is in order...

My name's Jordi, I'm 22 years old, live in Adelaide, Australia with my Mum and our 16 rats.

Two and a half years ago, I moved back from living in Anchorage, Alaska for two and a half years. It was the most incredible place to live, and I met some of the most wonderful people! I really miss living there, but I've found things that keep me here.

For instance, I have the most incredible boyfriend in the entire world, his name's Abe, he's 34 and he has a six year old daughter named Wynona, who lives with him full-time. He lives about two hours away from me (by bus, my only mode of transport) with his daughter (as I've already said), his parents (Jerry and Isabel) and younger brother (Dennis). I get along with all of them, which is good as I spend 4 days a week at their house. I've even been asked to move in there, but haven't decided yet as Abe and I have only been together for just under 8 months and I think it might be a little soon.

Another thing that keeps me here is my best friend, Sera. She is 23 (24 in August) and she lives in a little town named Manjimup in Western Australia at the moment, but I'm hoping she'll move back to Adelaide sometime soon! She is, however, visiting Adelaide for a few weeks and arrives tomorrow! I won't see her until Friday, but I'm predicting that we'll have a full day of shopping and catching up!

I'm obsessed with two things that I can think of off the top of my head: Harry Potter and survey/quizzes.

The obsession with Harry Potter started when I was 15, my Mum had just moved overseas (she left in 2001, I followed in 2003) and I was living with my Grandma and Granddad. Grandma had borrowed the four books that were out at the time off a student (she's a swimming instructor) and I got bored one day and decided to "see what all the hype was about". I was hooked. Since then, I've bought all seven of the books, the last three on release day, have about five Harry Potter-related reference books, and read fanfiction regularly.

I'm not entirely sure how the obsession with surveys and quizzes started, but anyone who has me on their MySpace will notice that I do surveys on a regular (possibly more often than that, if it's possible!) basis. I'm brutally honest in them, so if you really want to find something out about me, create a survey and make sure I see it!

Wow. I think that was more than a "short introduction" but too damn bad, this is my blog!

Well, that's definitely enough for now. I probably won't update too often as I'm quite slack about it, but hopefully I'll remember that I have this blog, haha.

Ciao for now!
