If I had one wish, and I couldn’t wish for more wishes, and I couldn’t just ask to be a genie, and I couldn’t ask for wishes to be given to all my friends, and I couldn’t wish for infinite birthday cakes, four-leaf clovers, coins to throw in a wishing well or sightings of the … [Read more…]
I might have only been in the welding industry for a year, but I don’t like the way things are going. It’s time for immediate action. I might be young, but that gives me an instant advantage since it makes me politically savvy, woke and erudite, much more perceptive and clever than everyone older than … [Read more…]
Most of the time I am worried about having my work missed or not being able to do a good enough job for my superiors. This however, is me simply using the tools I have available to me to help out someone in need, in this case my neighbour Wilson. We’ve been neighbours for over … [Read more…]
I have been on my feet, on average, about 13 hours a day. Considering that most people are only awake for 16 hours a day, that should put some things into perspective for you. I am on my feet almost constantly. Not just on my feet either, but moving around, walking, running, climbing and jumping. … [Read more…]
All those years of avocados and lattes…who knew my brunch obsession would be the one main factor in me not being able to buy my own home? I’m still trying to decide it was worth it, all those years of delicious brunches with my indulgent friends. They certainly were wonderful, although their pleasure was fleeting. … [Read more…]
It’s true what they say: a café is judged by its garden. I’m certainly not going to pick up my coffee from a dingy, dismal-looking café when I can go to somewhere else with flowering bulbs and sunshine. Even if it’s a chain restaurant, I’ll choose on principle. That’s why I believe we need to … [Read more…]
I guess we do ice skating. No, wait, I’ve got the brief in the email somewhere…oh, okay. We’re working with ice skating companies as part of a broader teaching initiative that includes a number of different fields. Wait, no, that’s worse! That means people could ring me up asking me how to ice skate and … [Read more…]
No one wants to buy houses that are on fire. That’s just…a fact. Imagine you’re a fresh-faced new home buyer. You’ve been saving up for years to buy your first home in somewhere nice, like Brighton. Conveyancers are at the ready, because you’ve done your research, read all the newspaper articles, you have wise parents … [Read more…]
We’ve literally just begun our renovations on our home and it is already killing me. Who would have thought something that so many people do for fun would be so difficult? I mean, I’ve watched renovation TV shows and I’ve seen them cry their eyes out over brindabella roses. I never thought I would have … [Read more…]
It’s come to my attention that…there’s a lot I don’t know about the world. Can’t blame everything on school, although maybe, like…a history lesson would’ve been nice. We didn’t even do history in school except for one subject in Year 8, and even then we just learned about Australian history. So when I made it … [Read more…]
