About me

Name: Christine

Age: 21

Location: Amstelveen, the Netherlands

Gender: If you haven’t figured that one out yet, you really need to get out more.

Pets: Two cats, Dorus & Daisy

Hobbies: Dancing (ballroom & latin), Mah Yong (the original Chinese game, not the one you can find all over the internet), music & reading

Drink: Yes (but not much)

Smoke: No
Why not?: Because my father used to smoke. When I was 7, I asked him to stop because I didn’t want him to die. He looked at his sigar, and said "Ok, this is my last one". After that last sigar, he immediatly quit smoking. He didn't stop smoking for himself, not even for my mother. But when I asked him to, he did it for his little girl. And because of that, I will never ever smoke a sigarette.

Favourite food: I’m really diffcult when it comes to food. But if you throw in some peanutsauce or some mayonaise, you simply can’t go wrong.

Favourite drink (non-alcoholic): Spa & Fruit (forest fruit)

Favourite drink (alcoholic): Sex on the Beach

Favourite music: I have a broad interest in music. I like metal, classical, folk, pop, and most that’s in between.

Favourite band: After Forever & Ayreon

Favourite song: Ayreon - Hope

Favourite books: The Farseer Trilogy by Robin Hobb, Pont du Gard by Helena Rentmeester (dutch), Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling & The Sword of Truth series by Terry Goodkind. Man, do I read a lot!

Favourite movies: Pirates of the Caribbean, Finding Neverland, Labyrinth, Sleepy Hollow & Chocolat

Favourite tv-program: Grey’s Anatomy & Dancing with the Stars (that’s the Dutch version of Strictly Come Dancing)

Favourite actor: Johnny Depp (who doesn’t like the guy), Alan Rickman & Jason Isaacs.

Favourite color: Blue

 

Things I dislike:

- Diet- or light-products. It tastes awful and it’s not even good for you!

- People who are screaming “Jesus saves” to you on the streets. Leave me alone, you don’t see me promoting Darwin in front of a church!

- Thick pancakes, I only like the thin ones.

- Having to calculate what's the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow.

- African of European swallow?

- People who light a sigarette next to you, ask if it's bothering you, and when you say "yes", move the sigarette to the other hand. It's even worse when they actually think doing that makes any difference.

- Leg-hair. Shouldn't that have been cut away by evolution already?

- Visible thongs. They’re meant to wear UNDER your pants.

- SMS-language. It becomes more confusing every day!

- Hiphopvideo’s. If I want to watch half-naked women who can shake various parts of their body, I’ll rent a porn-movie.

- People who say I hate hiphop. That’s not true, I just don’t like the video’s that come along with it.

- Herring! Except if it's for cutting down the mightiest tree in the forest.


How do I believe?

- First of all, upload at least one song and one photo, and tell something about you / your band in the "info" section. If you don't even take the time to do this, I probably won't take you serious.

- Secondly, do your best! There are bands who don't promote themselves in any way, and others (like Tiffany Gow) who send personal thanks after buying a part, and are really trying to reach the 50k. You don't have to make a lot of progress each week, as long as you try. If you're sitting ducks, I'd rather invest in someone who's really going for it.

- Believe in yourself! If you don't even believe in yourself, you probably don't want this as much as the ones who do. I'm a busy girl, so I only click the profiles that exceed $ 100. Nine friends who believe in you can't be that hard to find...can it?

- Of course, you have to impress me. I like many styles of music, but I can be a bit reluctant in "believing". I'm a student and therefore most of the time short of cash, so if I believe in you, you made a big impression on me.

- And last but not least: don't spam me. E-mails or comments like "hey, check us out" are deleted. I'm browsing Sellaband on regular basis, so I'll come across your page sooner or later. If you've got a really good reason why I should listen go to your page, you're welcome to post it, but no fixed messages please!


- Christine -

Tiffany Gow was a real suprise to me! I listened to "Slave Symphony" and immediatly knew I had to buy a part. Tiffany's songs got wonderfull orchestrations, and her beautifull clear rock voice fits in perfectly. With her talent, she'll hit the charts in no time.

I've waited long for Sarah's Smile to be on Sellaband... and I wasn't disappointed when it finally happened!
Lucia Iman Lucia Iman 09.08.07 1
I was absolutely stunned by her music, so gentle, tender and beautiful. An artist like Lucia is rare these days, so we should cherish her.

Daniel came, saw, and conquered! Live he's even more amazing than on tape. The energy Daniel puts in his music is really contagious! And I'm infected with it!

With his amazing act on the Leidseplein, he really earned me as a believer. Wow, this man can sing... loud!

For those who don't speak Dutch... let's just say that they rock!
