"Come on, just have one drink!" "Have a shot! It won't kill you!" "Why are you always such a party-pooper? "Stop being so BORING." Scribbling notes in my favourite note pad one day (I do this every day FYI), I started taking note of the things people had said to me on a night out [...]
Long time no typing, little blog of mine. What's new with you? Nice new layout you've got there, and is that a new logo I see, too? You've been busy while I've been gone, haven't you! What's new with me? It's about time you asked.. Where to begin... first of all - where the f**k [...]
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. Then it stops. I've [...]
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 [...]

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 [...]
