Hi everyone!
I'm Gal and I come from Australia, and I'm not entirely sure what I'm doing here. I am left though :)
hmmm what else about me...I like travelling a lot, when I can afford to, I'm studying social work at the moment. I'm a singer-songwriter and I love learning languages in my spare time, when I have some.

English is my native, Cornish and Welsh my second and third. I learnt German while I lived in Switzerland for some time [worst experience of my life!] and I started learning Finnish late last year.

Hello and welcome.
I see from your signature you're a fan of Python! I approve!
I am hoping that if I post to a few topics around here that I will lose the newby persona...
I feel slightly contaminated. It's been ages since I joined a forum. I forgot what it feels like to be all nnew...
anyway, 4am here so I might not know what I'm talking about!

Oh cool, I'm Finnish and it always baffles me why any foreigner would like to learn this language. D:

Minun rakastaan Suomea!
I've been to Finland twice now. my ex-boyfriend was Finnish and his parents spoke nothing but Finnish, so I started learning for their sake. I keep learning now because I don't easily give up on thins.

It's hard, because I find it difficult to categorise myself accurately. I would take a guess that I'm a democratic socialist though.
I think it's hard for anyone to do volunteer work in the community sector and study community services without being left wing. With the exception of a couple of people in my class, we are all left.

Actually, after reading this forum, I've decided I'm not a democratic socialist. I'm not content with sitting back and changing things slowly from within...
is there some kind of accurate test I can do to find out what I am?

No, there's not. Well there are tests, but they're pretty bad. The best thing is to just keep reading and reading more stuff and things will probably kind of fall in place with time. There's no hurry to try to label and categorize yourself at this point too much, it pretty much just results in you thinking something because that's how your tendency thinks while it should go the other way around. Get some nice books, read some Marx or guides to Marx, get active in your local orgs if at all possible and post here. Eventually, the confusion will just kind of go away.
