Do you ever just crave a type of food so badly that you’d do anything to eat it? I do… all the time. There’s this cafe near me that does the best smashed avo I’ve ever had, and when I woke up this morning I seriously didn’t want to talk to anyone until I had …
Would you believe, my escape from the social experiment went perfectly. I left through the roof in the dead of night when the cameras were facing the front door. I’ve been studying the way the cameras work and how the security guards operate for over a month now, and my studying was flawless. I got …
So, where I left off in my last blog post was that I was about to see a specialist for issues I’ve been having with my feet. That was six months ago now and things were a lot worse than I originally expected. I had done too much walking and would need to learn to …
I’m a young woman in my early twenties. If I had to describe myself in three words, I’d say I’m a perfectionist, who is determined and driven. These three qualities have set me up for serious success. I’m the first of my friends to get a full time job after university, and the first of …

The saying that one person’s misfortune is another person’s fortune is true in more ways than one. I’ve experienced both ends of the spectrum, having people benefit off my misfortunes, but recently I benefited off someone else’s misfortune. The misfortune was my grandad’s, who is no longer able to drive. The fortune was that I …
I think it’s almost universally accepted that one of the best feelings in the entire world is knocking off work on a Friday afternoon. Every single Friday, no matter the plans I’ve got for the next two days, I’m filled with a happiness and sense of relief that consumes me. Today is Friday, and I …
As a tradie, making sure my van works is obviously pretty important. It can get hard to get to a job if my van doesn’t start, and I know that from personal experience. It actually sucked. Last year I got in heaps of trouble because I couldn’t get to a job and it made us …
When people look at me, they see a privileged upper middle class young woman who has had the world handed to her. Whilst they’re not wrong, what they don’t know is that I’ve worked for every single opportunity I’ve been given. I acknowledge that I was lucky to receive the opportunities in the first place, …
