Hi everyone! Hope you’re all keeping well despite the global COVID-19 pandemic. I’ve been staying at home a lot more than I usually would… which I am loving! I think I’ve always been a homebody. Growing up, I’d prefer to spend time in my room doing something creative rather than going out with friends. I’m … Continue reading 5 things I wish I considered before buying a house
Hi everyone, I was once told that the average person will have about three significant careers in one lifetime. I'm not sure whether this is true or not, but what I do know for sure is that it can be a really scary and exciting at the same time. A career change is something that … Continue reading Let’s Talk: Changing Careers

The poor thing is in a fair bit of pain and I can't help but feel sorry for her. Dogs don't have the … Continue reading Let’s Talk: The Challenges Of Having A Fur-Baby
Hi everyone, Last week, I found myself on a plane headed to Bali, Indonesia. Funnily enough, this isn't an unusual place to visit - it's a very popular holiday destination for many Western Australians due to its location (3.5 hour flight), beaches, cheap food, shopping, accommodation and more.

Hi all, So, unless you’ve been hiding under a rock the past couple of weeks you would have heard about the so-called ‘cat-fight’ between Kim Cattrall and Sarah Jessica Parker (SJP). Cattrall’s brother past away recently and SJP gave her condolences, to which Cattrall outright rejected and accused her of taking advantage of the situation, … Continue reading Let’s Talk: Bullying. My Story
Hi all, January is that time of year where people are trying to live up to the mantra 'New Year, New Me'. But not for me. I think it's a stupid mantra. What does 'new me' even mean in this day and age? It's more along the lines of 'reinventing oneself', or 'self improvement' if … Continue reading Let’s Talk: The Anxiety Of Joining A Gym
Hi all, As if Mondays aren't bad enough - I can't believe it's the middle of summer and Perth's weather has turned to shit in just under 24 hours! I'm guessing it's because of Cyclone Joyce up north.
