: About Me

My name is Alishia, I am 21 years old, I live in Queensland Australia. I am an Early Child Hood Teacher. I love reading and writing and my goal is to forever be learning something new. A passion I try to share with the children I teach. For as long as I can remember, I was mostly found with my nose stuck in a book, be it fiction or fact, I loved to read.  I am absolutely crazy about Animals, particularly the cold blooded scaley kinds, one of the perks of living in Queensland is that I get to see so many reptiles. I own a python and have raised Bearded dragons And Blue Tongues'. I am passionate about music as well as singing and songwriting in my spare time just for leisure.

I also enjoy Dance and  Martial Arts- I can be a bit fitness crazy.

If I'm not off in another world lost in the pages of a great book, I am outside soaking up as much of nature as I can, bushwalking, herping, you name it I'll try it.

Basically there is very little I wouldn't like to try and awful lot more I'd like to learn and write about.

I should fight, and scratch and bite, refusing to give in, But by t...
