How I did it
How to repay my debts
It took me
6 weeks
It made me
relieved

How I did it: I worked extra shifts at my checkout job, and cut down on my spending until I had enough to pay mum and dad back. I decided how long I wanted it to take and what factors needed to be brought into account, and just saved up. I paid them back bit by bit. Read how I did it…

How to try yoga
It took me
1 day
It made me
relaxed

How I did it: I saw a flyer one day and just decided to do it. I rang the number, got the details and on Tuesday morning, rocked up to the community centre where the class was held. I had a great experience, and have continued to go back - it's an hour of 'me time,' where you forget about the outside world and think about your posture and breath for a while. Read how I did it…

How to watch The Notebook
It took me
1 day
It made me
mildly entertained

How I did it: I'd been meaning to see this movie for months. I'd heard from everyone (literally, every single person I asked) that I could not watch the notebook without crying. I was looking forward to curling up with a box of tissues and getting into this love story. Unfortunately, there were no tears, and while it was a decent movie, I probably won't bother seeing it again. Read how I did it…

Fall in love (read all 2 entries…)
Untitled 1 month ago

So I got asked out yesterday, and I said yes. And I’m scared, and still wondering if maybe I’m not a relationship-person, and thinking that there’s so many ways for this to go terribly wrong. But he’s a lovely guy and I didn’t want to say no and so who knows, maybe I just need to learn how to not be on my own. It’s not love but it’s not nothing either.

get your coogee on. 3 months ago

Me, laura and ben went to coogee beach tonight :) it was the first time that just the three of us had hung out in aaaages. We took a million photos (on the jetty, on the sand, on the jetty from the sand, on the sand from the jetty…) and made stupid jokes and laughed like small children and had an amazing time. then we drove around, got lost, made kinky handprints in the window fog, and laura got hopelessly drenched in the pouring rain. it was a brilliant night, and definitely one for the “make the most of it” list :)

Fall in love (read all 2 entries…)
smash mouth 3 months ago

“I thought love was only true in fairytales, made for someone else but not for me…”

I’ve been on my own for so long, and for the most part happy with it, that sometimes I do wonder if maybe relationships aren’t my thing, and perhaps I just wasn’t meant to fall in love.

But it occurred to me today that maybe I do deserve to have what I want. I just need to decide what that is. And if it’s more than just spending all my time with friends or by myself, then so be it, right?
