I have never been a firm believer in New Year's Resolutions - I have goals, sure - but they're not specific to when the clock strikes 12 on the last day of the year. Instead, I decided to stop thinking I would reach my goals 'one day', and made today 'day one'. The last two [...]
To think I was a mere 12 years of age when I discovered this unfamiliar online portal that allowed me to interact with the world. I knew nothing about writing decent content or how to interact with other users. Social media was fresh communication for me - my friends had just started getting the hang [...]
Did anyone else blink and miss all of 2017, or was that just me? I vaguely recall doing some online shopping, voting YES in the Marriage Equality Postal Survey, reading some books, and watching Donald Trump make some questionable decisions whilst in charge of America. Somewhere mid-blink, I lost my passion to be organised, motivated, [...]
Is there such a thing as one great love? Or do people have more than that? I suppose you could say "we met at just the right time", or that "fate brought us together", but I don't believe in that. I think we stumbled across each other (we literally stumbled across each other at the local bar) [...]
It starts in my hands - tingling with pins and needles until I lose the ability to move them. I watch them twitch as they hang immobile by my side. Breathing becomes hard, as if my lungs instantly lose the capacity to circulate air – they’ve given up on keeping me alive. All hearing senses [...]
The memory of New Year’s Eve is still so vivid – one stage, one band, thousands of people and hundreds of shoeys. Jumping up and down because you don’t have any option other than moving with the crowd, feeling like your heart will pop out of your chest when the beat crashes out of the [...]
35 days later and people still ask, “so, how does it feel?”. To begin with, my answer was blunt and sassy. I don’t know, I feel regular? It’s just another day.. My response was not incorrect. Birthdays are generally just another day. Apparently, the celebrations of entering adulthood is a completely different story. I can’t say [...]
Our whole universe was in a hot dense state, then nearly 14 billion years ago expansion started wait… That’s the wrong Big Bang Theory… I’m talking about the Big, Big Bang Theory. It goes something like this: The easiest thing to ever do is eat 24 chicken nuggets rely on other people to make you [...]
My first experience in the blog-o-sphere was back in my first year of high school. It was exciting, different and I absolutely adored it. Not much has changed in those last five years, other than my fading obsession with One Direction and the colour of my hair. Although, I haven’t written much lately, and I [...]
I was constantly annoyed at myself for not loving something. People have hobbies and interests – things they are passionate about. We all need to be passionate about something to enjoy ourselves (that's what I hear anyway). Like at school, when you choose your classes – everyone tells you to pick the hardest classes to [...]
