5+5 things you don't know about me

Posted on Feb 13th, 2007 by Angel  : Surrender Angel
I've been double tagged by the beautiful Katherine estelle eveningstar 
& charming Lobster John 

1:) Let's see... where shall I start... as a child if I was held back I would become disobedient, stubborn & wilful, I was not the whinging, cry baby type. I loved the outdoors (still do) and needed plenty of exercise and independence ~ otherwise I just took them!  (I guess these days I'd be labelled with ADHD)  I was colourful, wild and would enliven our household by dancing and entertaining my parent's guests (still do) ha, ha... I actually won dance competitions in the 80's, can still do the hysterical moves, great for getting a dance party started!

2:)
This is totally from my memory, so I'm sure I've missed a few... (to obtain more I'd need to access my archived electronic memory accumulator ~ 'video camera & recordings')
I've lived in Tasmania, Sydney, Byron Bay (Australia), Tokyo, London, L.A, Munich, Hamburg, Zurich, Dubai.  I've worked in Tasmania, Sydney, Byron Bay, Darwin, Queensland (Australia), Bangkok, Penang, Canary Islands, Tokyo, London, Munich, Hamburg, Austria, Zurich, Corsica, Venice.  I've visited Frazer Island, New Zealand, Fiji, Seychelles, Gibraltar, Morocco, Oman, Syria, Lebanon, Holland, France, Switzerland, Italy, Greece, United States and U.K.

3:)
Over the years I've graced (: with grace :) magazine covers and the inside of numerous fashion magazines. Featured in many TV commercials and appeared on various labels, products and billboards. Ooooh Yeah... I work in the modelling scene, that fickle little industry where the EGO feeds & thrives in total illusion!!!  (: Anyone seen Meryl Streep in Devil Wears Prada? ~ "That's All":) lol...  I've shaken my chakras in 100's of runway shows around the world. I still remember the day I fell off the bloody runway!  Picture the scene.... on my head is a Mexican hat, not your average Mexican hat, this one was enormous, no joke, as large as a trampoline! Anyways, I'm striding along and an Amazonian type model on the opposite side was walking towards me, concerned about the size of the hat; I slightly stepped to the side, only to come crashing down on one leg.  Audience gasps.... complete silence... there I stand, single legged... mental picture... one leg on the ground, the other still attached to the runway!  In that very moment the world stopped still and my mind was racing overtime :))) .........how embarrassing!  Another memorable and outrageous fashion show was the time I modelled with Iveseena Mirage, a transsexual from Sydney!  OMG.... all this talk about re-living accumulated experiences.... moving right along to the dolphin story...


4:)
This particular story is one of my favourites. I am 'blessed and full of gratitude' to have rescued two dolphins stranded on a beach in Tasmania. My one & only mission was saving the dolphins; every second was intensely in the moment. I felt only awareness and totally lost the ME. The love and the oneness I felt for those beautiful creatures was all there was... and all there ever will be ~ NOW everyone's a dolphin! lol They were heavier than I imagined, attempting to move them alone wasn't easy. With a gentle force, I managed to lift and roll the first dolphin through the sand and back into the water. I was re-energised when I observed it waiting for its buddy. After the second rescue, they frolicked about for a few minutes then swam out of the bay towards the sea. As the afternoon sun glowed and glistened upon the water, I looked up to see the silhouettes of their pod/family waiting for them.  They all reunited and moved on, towards the open vastness of sea... 

5:)
I love... the oceans roar, the rustle of the trees ~ the fresh air, greenness and outdoors
the magic of the Australian Outback ~ the majesty of the Austrian Alps ~ the absolute stillness of the desert ~ the smell of sandalwood...

6:)
I almost skied off the edge of an Austrian Alp, well sort of... skied on my butt more like it :)
 It was way too late before I realised I was on a black run!  'feel the fear & do it anyway'

7:)
I make a lip-smacking chocolate zucchini cake.........yummy!

8:)
At times I have a limitless supply of energy and can get by on four hours sleep a night!

9:)
I cannot be constricted to rules, regulations and tight schedules. I'm a nonconformist, free spirit, but will try anything once (within reason) before making up my mind.

10:)
I'm a happy-go-lucky 'dare-angel' and do most things on the spur of the moment.

                                                                                                                                    "That's All" :)



                                              Now I get to "TAG" in no particular order...

Generous words come from a generous mind and heart… thank you. I've had fun playing the game ‘five things you don't know about me' but all the while observing this self-identifying space… It is what it is ~ thought, memory, accumulation, experience ~ it's not me :)

Hi Angel,

Saving those dolphins … wow.  Way to go, girl.  Have you read, “In the Presence of Higher Beings  … What Dolphins want us to know?”  Council Oak Book

You're way cool.  Your son is a gem.  Great mom.

James
