#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 →

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 →

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 →

Morning Coffee and the Bowl of Peas

It's a weird feeling when you get old enough to feel really shitty about not being able to get a coffee before work in the morning. Didn't happen to me until recently but there's a very distinct feeling of "I will punch someone if I don't have my coffee". A curious feeling. Accompanied by my … Continue reading Morning Coffee and the Bowl of Peas →

An Honest Talk About My Mental Health

As you might have read in my previous post (a.k.a my first post) I lived 12 years of my life not knowing that I had anxiety and depression and I thought I'd write an article from the perspective of someone who was only very recently diagnosed after years and years of having no idea what … Continue reading An Honest Talk About My Mental Health →

Once Upon A Time…

I've tried to start many blogs before and none of them ever felt right, no idea why. I just have so many thoughts that run through my head at one time that I need to get them down; whether it's just for myself or not I don't really care, but if someone else can read … Continue reading Once Upon A Time… →
