The Wonderful World of Hannah :-)

Hey I'm Hannah, and this is my new blog :-) I'm finding it a little difficult to "introduce" myself using just a few words on a computer screen...but I'll give it a whirl. Im seventeen and I've just moved to the Gold Coast from my small home town in New South Wales. Im loving uni and I'm extremely lucky to have met some amazing new friends. My new lifestyle here has definetely taken some getting used to, but because I'm only seventeen (and I dont have the connections to purchase a fake ID) I am yet to be corrupted by the Gold Coast club scene (yet..) I love learning, and I'm studying for a Bachelor of Communication. I'm enjoying all of my subjects so far, and, given my interest in internet networking (especially on myspace), New Communication Technologies is proving to be one of my favourites. I'm a very inquisitive person, and I cant wait to see the world. My dreams for the future are quite broad. I once wrote a narrative (in year 8 i believe) on the topic of 'My wildest dreams for the future'. I failed. The teachers comment was, "This cant be your dreams for the future, Hannah. Surely you want a better life than this." I was furious. I spent hours writing that narrative, which was based on my life as a hippy, travelling around Australia in a kombi van with my boyfriend, surfing and meeting new people. I've made it my life's aim to prove that teacher wrong. Ok, yes, I'm at uni with the intention of getting a degree and working for a number of years...but I WILL fulfill my dreams of being a bum. I've always wanted to be a magazine editor..but I'm not too keen on living in the city, so I've been reconsidering my goals lately. No progress as of yet. I really have no idea what I want to be. I just know that my interests lie within the course that I'm studying, so I guess thats a good start. I'd also like to volunteer for Greenpeace one day. I have a lot of things like that that I aim to achieve in my life. Hopefully I'll get a chance to complete all of them. My favourite colour is lime green (just thought I'd throw that in there). Im a firm believer in music- its a massive part of my life. I need it everyday. I like to talk a lot, to my boyfriend, my mates, or complete strangers. I find all people interesting, which is why I choose to pick up hitch hikers. They're normal people. They just dont have cars. Good for them I say. I have never met anyone else in the world that shares my view on this topic, and I blame that on hitch-hiker related horror movies. I refuse to watch horror movies in general, so my opinion hasn't been tainted by movies like Wolf Creek and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. I dont understand how people can be entertained by those kind of movies. I've watched about 3 of them in my entire life, and for months after viewing them I had to check under my bed religiously every night before i went to sleep. Yes, im soft. I prefer comedy movies that put you in a good mood and make you laugh. Life is all about laughter :-) Anyway, on that positive note, I should probably wrap this up. If you havn't noticed, this first post has been pretty much, a whole lot of pointless ramblings, but I feel its a good start. I'll be sure to elaborate further on these ramblings, in my next post.
