#brokeassadult

Hello again readers, your professional procrastinator is back again. I woke up yesterday morning feeling awful but that went away by mid day and I was fine, I even got halfway through my assignment which was great, but by 5pm I started to feel like death and by 11pm I was in the emergency waiting … Continue reading #brokeassadult →

Garage Rock and a Cup of Tea

Hello again to whoever is reading this, tis I the professional procrastinator (or so I thought).It feels strange being an overachiever for the first time in my existence. I'm currently weeks ahead on all of my assignments which is just weird for me, usually I procrastinate until I have to do them all the day … Continue reading Garage Rock and a Cup of Tea →

Resurrection

Ok, so it's been a while, sorry about that. Lockdown should have made me want to write more but instead it just made me lethargic and lifeless. Needless to say, I struggled, mainly to stay sane and motivated. I don't think I've been that bored for such a long amount of time before, it must … Continue reading Resurrection →

The Cost of Capitalism

We're all familiar with the word, it rules us like a tyrant, beating us all into submission as we slave away to be able to feed ourselves. This is not normal. It is not something that should be accepted. It's the poor getting poorer while the rich get richer. People should be in control of … Continue reading The Cost of Capitalism →

Racism Needs To Die

People keep forgetting it's only been 50 years since people of colour gained equal rights. My mother was a pre-teen when they were treated like garbage and were considered dirty and non-human. I've always fully supported the black community and genuinely can't believe that people don't.I don't even understand why people would judge someone based … Continue reading Racism Needs To Die →

His music is kind of a unique mixture of folk, blues, rock, and gospel. He released his … Continue reading I Met Hozier! →

I Was in a Toxic Friendship and it Ruined My Mental Health

It's not just partnerships that can be abusive, sometimes friendships can be too. This is my story. So, I met the friend in question roughly three years ago at a fancy-dress night at a club in the city. Back then I was about 18 or 19 and was still living with my mum out in … Continue reading I Was in a Toxic Friendship and it Ruined My Mental Health →

I Don’t Wear Makeup To Please Men

Guess it's time for one of these posts. I had a bit of a rough day yesterday so I decided to wear lipstick for the first time in a while to give me a bit of a confidence boost ('cause a bit of lippie is the bomb with almost any outfit, am I right?). On … Continue reading I Don’t Wear Makeup To Please Men →

The Customers You Get in a Bookshop

I work at a small, second-hand bookstore in Australia. You'd think the customers would all be pleasant old ladies and book-collectors, and you'd be right, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. Working in a bookshop you get the same variety of people come in than anywhere else in retail. The grumps, the time-wasters, … Continue reading The Customers You Get in a Bookshop →
