Bio

Know all those dorky moviegeeks you hear so much about? I'm the worst one.

Small guide to me

I'm a 29 year old Dutch girl and I'm owned by two cats.

This is my place to rant, fangirl and just be plain random. I love movies (everything from bad 80s horror to big budget disaster movies). Anime is another thing that I love (current favorite - K-On!).
When I'm not on lj, I'm either randomly surfing the net, watching tv or I've got my nose stuck in some book or the other.
