About Myself

Me!

Hi. I’m Amanda, and I’m a frugalista, a socialist, a cross between fobulous and fobabee, and a career student (currently studying a Master of Human Services Management). I am immensely in debt after having purchased my first home, and don’t get paid enough at the various not-for-profit organisations I work for as a general dirty red commie do-gooder.

High on the list of things I like would be obsessively analysing and plotting every aspect of my career path, being stingy with my money, being an anally retentive organiser and clean freak, and embarrassing you in public. I also like Dylan, my white devil of a boyfriend despite my strict azn parents not approving of white penis. I have a tendency to turn nouns into adjectives and verbs, thanks to Joss Whedon’s influence.

For more about me, either add my blog to your feedreader (it’s the best way of getting to know me), or read these questions from my readers: here and here.

About The Site

“Jingwen” is phoneticisation of my Chinese name, meaning “quiet and cultured” (or something of the like). By giving me this name, my parents hoped that they would instill these same qualities in my personality – they were clearly misguided.

Regarding comments, write whatever you like – I do however, reserve the right to edit or delete your comment as I see fit. I only delete comments from anonymous commenters, or people with multiple aliases, so do use a genuine name/email combination to ensure your comment is approved. If you’ve commented, and your comment doesn’t show up within forty-eight hours, chances are that it was caught by my spam filter and deleted mistakenly. Email me with your comment, and I’ll add it to the entry in question.
