Things That Get My Fires Going
Disclaimer: These are my thoughts on certain issues. Perhaps you may find my writing style somewhat preachy or forceful or aggressive, so take it with a pinch of salt if you so choose. I am not out to give any individuals a hard time or to make anyone angry- only to bring discussion and get people thinking, whether you agree with my viewpoints ( Read more... ) -
Tomb Sweeping
Awake. In the Darkness. The alarm clock greets me with its shrilly scream. Slowly I turn, tugging my doona over me, rubbing my eyes, and emitting a small groan. I reluctantly pull myself out of bed, my watch reminding me it is now 5am. As artificial light pierces my eyes, I wash my face, brush my teeth, comb my hair into a ponytail and get ( Read more... ) -
Self Pity and Wallowing
I have never missed Melbourne as much as I do now- that gut wrenching, heartsore, nauseous type of missing, like a part of me is firmly planted there, and I'm completely incomplete without it.
It's strange and wonderful, because last year, when I hadn't been back for periods of 4 months or more, the pangs weren't so bad. I was back there in ( Read more... ) -

The Land of Bountiful Trees which decorate the city with the lush green charm, towering majestically above roads and highways, sweeping the landscape with their ( Read more... ) -
Houses
I like to think that when I lived in Melbourne, everything was Peaches and Cream. Each morning would bring a new surprise, whether it be a change in the weather (which no doubt, would again adjust itself by lunchtime, and again as I travelled home on the trams), a song on the radio, a smile on a stranger's face. In those days I didn't have an ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
(I think this is becoming one of those really boring "What I did today" or "What I'm thinking in plain English" journals. Which is TOTALLY what I was trying to avoid. I mean there are so many of those around.. at least people like Lily and Kit actually write in such an eloquent and beautiful way that their everyday lives sound so gorgeous you ( Read more... ) -

A Tribute to D
D is one of my best, closest, most cherished friends. 3 months into knowing D, I was so overcome with love for the guy that I mistook it for being "in love" and made a fool of myself by telling him so. Of course, he was swift in dismissing and honest regarding his feelings, something I will always respect him for. We then went about the business ( Read more... )
