Me and mummy in 2006

Greenthings and salmonations! If you came here expecting information on the sandwich, feel free to direct yourself to this Wikipedia article.

If someone told you I was a 20-something beetroot who was born in Sydney but grew up mostly in Melbourne and Singapore, I’d say aside from their lack of horticultural knowledge they were mostly right. Grilled cheese sandwiches and whatnot.

I took an extended leave of absence to take care of my late mum for several years after high school but have now resumed my computer science studies again in Adelaide. I haven’t found my focus yet, but I’m fascinated with several different fields and am keeping my options open. Adelaide is a stunningly beautiful place with friendly people and a fantastic lifestyle, but I think it’s [relatively] safe to say Singapore is still home. Would love to spend some time living in Hong Kong, Europe or Canada at some point too though.

The tags page is a good place to see all the stuff I’m currently interested in, or the complete post index if you have a couple of hours to kill while you wait for it to load.

I’d love to chat more, but any further discussion would probably be in violation of the Temporal Prime Directive, and goodness knows I’m already in enough trouble for even acknowledging my own existence to fine people like yourself in this time line.

I can be reached at my name spelled out without any punctuation, @gmail.com (written like this to help prevent spam harvesters). I I’m also an obsessive Twitter-er-er.

I’m also available on Flickr, Google Reader, del.icio.us, Whole Wheat Radio, Libre.fm (former Last.fm user), Wikipedia and Facebook.

Peace, health and happiness,
