This is me, with a little more red velvet and equally as pale skin.

My Dad's the kind of person to answer his phone with "Yo." and get into in depth conversations about stem cell research and genetic manipulation with my friends. My mother is the kind of person who spends two hours setting the table when we have guests over and changes the settings on my Facebook so that she can see my wall posts after I deliberately hide them from her. I'm the kind of person who embarrasses people in public and have no problem telling people I don't know personal things about me. I should probably be more mysterious.

My birthday is the 27th of June, so I'm a cancer. Reading this, how can you not believe in it? They are vague statements, but this might as well be my biography.

"It is fair to say that most Cancers are a bundle of contradictions. Compassionate and caring with friends, family and lovers, yet they can cut to the bone with their jealous remarks and ever-changing moods. Endearingly eccentric on one hand, and on the other, insecure about how others see them. Like their astrological symbol - the Crab - Cancers can appear hard and insensitive on the outside. However, for those of us who know and love a "Moon Child", we understand that deep below lies a softness and sensitivity that makes them so very special...

Just as the Moon goes through many changes as it moves from its new to full phases, Cancers too go through many new and full phases of experience. Life doesn't stand still for this sign, even if they remain in one place, because they live so much in their internal oceans of emotions. Their link with the Moon often makes it impossible for them to operate on an even keel from day to day. Up and down like the proverbial yo-yo, most Cancerians feel one way one minute, then sometimes totally different the next. But this characteristic is part of their charm.

Love and romance matter more than anything else to this sign (but this occasionally shares first place with having lots of money in the bank). No other sign romances better, equally though, no sign takes it so badly when romance turns sour either. But with their changeable natures Cancerians are fascinating, mysterious, stimulating and extremely alluring. This sign is one of the most magic of all and once their magic has reached you, they are the most beguiling companions."

I've always been afraid to die young. Before you get to do all the things you want to do. And perhaps in a horrible way from the hands of someone else, the last thing you remember. It's horrible to think it can happen to anyone, these people were normal before. They thought about how many children they would have when they grow up and they were worried about what people thought of them. I've wrote a post on my funeral before. But things like this are too scary and unreal to comprehend ever happening to me, or someone close to me. My problems seem so insignificant now.

I want to be a writer for a magazine/newspaper, and I want to write some books. I want to be a script writer for a TV show and for a few films. I want to be a film maker and director for stage shows. I want to perform in a musical and a play. I want to be a musician and photographer and I'll be a TV presenter and a radio host.

I want a big apartment with big windows and it will have big white walls and a concrete floor that is covered in Arabian carpets, and then I'll roll up the carpets when I want to roller blade around. I'll have flowers on the window sills that would be accompanied by couches that you sink into. I'll have huge bookcases and surround sound speakers. I'll have a guitar and two bongo drums. There will be piles of books everywhere and antique furniture. The windows will be coated in fairy lights and Nepal peace flags and my kitten will sleep on the pillow next to me. My fridge will always be stocked with alcohol and frozen chips. There will be mismatched paintings and pillows everywhere. My windows won't have curtains and I'll have an open door policy. The outside of the building will be covered in vines and I'll have the nicest view in the world. It will always be warm, my bed will be king sized and I'll have sleepovers with my friends every night. We'll cook pasta and drink red wine and then go out dancing. I'll have scrambled eggs for breakfast everyday after I've woken up at 11am. Hopefully I'll also have a swing. One day I'll show you all the pictures I collected of places I want to live.

Here are boys that I find so immensely attractive at the moment;

Of course, Justin Bieber.

Jared Leto in My So Called Life as Jordan Catalano

Charlie Hunnam in Sons Of Anarchy as Jax Teller

Rob Lowe in St Elmo's Fire as Billy Hicks.

(and of course Chris but whatever he isn't famous yet)

I'm on channel 31 every Friday night at 5pm. I just finished writing my 'host bio'

After several failed efforts to play guitar and piano, Katie decided that maybe she should just talk about how lovely everyone else’s music is instead of listening to her own pathetic attempt of a virtuoso life. She enjoys serenading people in public, risky business dancing home alone and occupying a large space on the d-floor with her signature dance moves. She’ll be spending her life on road trips with the radio on, maybe be a part of some cabarets and being on charitable guys shoulders at festivals (she cannot see anything because she is a Smurf.) If she could meet any band it would be Kings of Leon because she has devoted four years of her life worshiping them way before Only by the Night and they would all re-enact the tiny dancer bus scene from Almost Famous, (she of course would be Penny Lane and Jarred Followill would be Russell Hammond.)

I will never understand how it feels for someone close to you to die. Well, not just yet.

I've never experienced it first hand, well I have but I feel useless to pretend I know how it feels.

Its unimaginable and I wish in all my life I never have to experience it. But I will.

I don't like it when people have their funerals in places that they've never been before. (same goes for weddings.)

I don't like places where the room is occupied by folding chairs and peeling yellow wallpaper.

I want to have my funeral outside, not in a graveyard.

Somewhere like...the beach or a garden.

And they'll play animal collective and the decemberists. And the song that I'll be carried away by is Cold Desert. And I'll be wearing a long white cotton dress.

I don't want cheesy funeral ceremonial things. There will be everyone I know there. Unless it's people I didn't like. Then hopefully they wont come. No fake grievers allowed.

My "celebrant" will be a friend of mine whom I loved dearly and they loved me too. I'll have a viewing in my house and then my casket will be closed, but in the same room as everyone else so I can hear what everyones saying about me. And I think I'd want to be cremated. And then scattered, well I'd want it to be in space but I don't think thats going to happen, so I'll be scattered at my favourite place in the world but I haven't decided that yet.

Then afterwards everyone will go to the pub and get fucked and laugh about all the funny things I did.

I cannot wait until I am twenty and living in a small white house in Richmond with my best friends Jared and Imogen. I would be a music TV presenter, or a hair dresser, or a writer or perhaps I would own my own clothing store. I'd have avid love for music and a small passion for photography. I'd have a kitten. I'd spent most of my money on travelling and concerts. I'd only have an appetite for gourmet food and drink red wine on a regular occasion. I wouldn't be affected at all if I met a famous person and I would go to see shows at the Malthouse Theatre all the time. I'd spend most of my nights at house parties or jazz bars. I'd be in a small time band with my friends from high school and I'd take a lot of videos.

My name is Katie. I recently escaped an evil private girls school on the top of a hill where it was always too hot or too cold and you were never allowed to call out in class. I work in a coffee shop and I hope to one day host a music channel. I often get asked what university I go and receive unoriginal jokes about my height. I used to have fake red hair and I love it and miss it. I often have to convince myself I don't have a personality disorder and I don't understand why everyone is so depressed. I enjoy talking to people I've never met before and finding out life stories. I don't like people who are louder than me and people who look like they've never showered. I like pulp free orange juice and I dislike too much sweetness. I eat a lot of noodles and drink a lot of tea. I really enjoy being on planes and I've seen a lot of movies. My favourite band used to be Kings Of Leon but their new albums just aren't like they used to be. My favourite thing to do is watch Dexter with my boyfriend or be dancing drunkly at a party. I often tell people I will marry them and talk too loudly. I sing in public and I like it when people laugh at my jokes. I like talking about myself and hugging people. I used to love writing in my blog so I think I might force myself to start again.
