Hello everybody! How are ya'll going today? It's finally Spring here in Melbourne which means the sun is shining, the wind is blowing, the birds are a-swooping, and we are ALL bloody sneezing. Isn't it funny how once Winter is over, everyone seems to come out of their hibernation, people seem happier, we sleep better, we eat better, we feel better and people actually say hello to you on the street? Plus, don't forget the added BONUS of all the absolutely adorable doggos out walking.
A blog is something I've always wanted to give a go ever since I was a teenager. I've always been passionate about writing and creating but just haven't had the platform or the knowledge of where to start. But here I am, suddenly fueled by that extra existentialism and not knowing what to do with my life or what's next for me in my career trajectory. So here I am, giving something different a shot and trying my hand at continuing to be a creative online. The internet is an absolutely wonderful place. And I need to invest in a thesaurus lol.
My intention for this blog is to create an online space for me to showcase my photography, baking and cooking, writing, and any lifestyle things I wish to share. I'm also interested in creating more social media content in the near future so you'll notice on most pages of this blog there's a link to all my current socials, so far I've posted on Instagram, Threads, and TikTok. I'm also interested in making more video-content so the YouTube videos also might happen sometime soon but let's try and get my confidence up a little so I don't die of first-hand embarrassment. Although, it would be funny wouldn't it? Life is too short NOT to laugh at ourselves. Furthermore, I'd love for this to be a safe space where I can express my thoughts via a stream of consciousness type of way. It's a bit like just saying everything you think out loud without having a filter. My partner laughs at me a lot because I tend to do this IRL so let's see how it goes on the interwebs.
If you would like to get to know me a bit more, I encourage you to have a read of my About Me page and cyber-stalk my socials and I promise I will keep you updated on my life and more things about myself as I keep going with this blog. I've only just started this so the site may be a bit bare at the moment but it'll definitely get bigger and better. I promise! Here's to Day 1 of figuring out what my purpose is in life.
Random Question: If you were in a zombie apocalypse, which three celebrities would you choose to take with you, and what would be your weapon of choice? My answer: Simon Pegg because I feel like he would know what to do, Samuel. L. Jackson so someone else could say motherf*cker for me, and Taika Waititi so we have some kiwi blood in there. My weapon of choice would most likely be a baseball bat for the lols. Also fun fact about me: zombies absolutely scare the living sh*t out of me and I struggle watching even parody movies about zombies even if they are amazing movies (soz Simon Pegg and Nick Frost). Now, who's for a cornetto anyone? Let me know in the comments below what your answers are.
Amazing!
Ka pai!
