I don't ever blink, honestly.

I also love Australian movies. I love Muriel's Wedding - I've seen in six times. Baz Luhrmann's best movie is strictly ballroom... without question.

You don't really know what you're going to get until you're actually in Abbey Road. That's where I did all the music, in The Beatles' place.
