So as I noticed when I numbered this post (also I kinda generally noticed beforehand) that I did not write 52 posts this year, completing my challenge as I had originally planned to do. For those of you just reading this, I started this blog at the end of 2017 wanting something new to focus on and to challenge myself with. I was bored, spending … Continue reading 34. My 2018 Challenge Recap 💖

Christmas is that time of year where we spend a lot, eat a lot and catch up with a lot of people who we don’t normally see as much during the year. Either way, it is just an awesome holiday and my favourite time of year. And that is because it’s the time when we get to give presents to those who matter most in … Continue reading 30. How to nail buying Christmas Presents 🎅🏻

  I noticed a little over a month ago how much I felt like I was addicted to my phone due to social media. It is something that most of us struggle with but don’t always realise the advantages of taking a little break out to work on. Before the challenge I was noticing that I fell into stress easily and could be a bit … Continue reading 26. What cutting back on Social Media taught me 📱

So University has finished up for the semester and I found myself for this personal post having very little ideas on what to write about. Combine this with working a fair bit over last week/ missing my Sunday deadline I sunk into a little bit of a rut and am now writing my next post quite late. But after feeling kinda disappointed and sulky about … Continue reading 22. Writers Block Post #2 🐌

  Hi everyone, for this weeks personal post I wanted to do some reflecting (which is what I tend to do anyways with these posts) on my New Year’s resolutions as we are now four months into 2018 (wow!). So here is a little update on how those resolutions are coming along 🙂   Read. Read. Read. My first resolution was pretty self explanatory. I … Continue reading 18. 2018 Resolutions: An Update 📣

This week’s personal post was going to be about something different to what it is now, but something happened over the past day that I wanted to write about as it made me feel really happy. Yesterday (Friday in Australia) the majority of us were enjoying the first official day of the Easter break. Catching up with family, eating chocolate and hot cross buns, the … Continue reading 14. Good News Story Post #1 💓

I realised a couple of months ago that I hadn’t gone away on holiday in two years. The first year I was finishing high school and all the focus was on studying, and the second year I put down to starting uni and working, figuring out the next chapter. Nevertheless, the holiday thing hit me hard one day after a long week and because I … Continue reading 10. The Beach Fixes Everything 🐬

I remember reading a study done by an American University which found that a week of camping or at least a weekend of it in simple terms “resets” our body clocks, purely because our bodies learn to wake up when they are supposed to, working with the sun instead of our day to day schedules. At the time I sort of thought nothing much of … Continue reading 6. The Art of Chill 🕯

  Not gonna lie, 2017 was a lovely year. There was a lot of change, some new people and I learned a lot about myself. So when seeing posts online about New Year’s resolutions there seemed to be a lot of negative stuff out there. Lots of joking about how we set these big shiny goals (true…) and then about a week later go back … Continue reading 2. New Year, Similar Me, Wiser Goals 🔮

  As an avid reader of blogs and it being the summer holidays over here in Australia, a combination of boredom and curiosity has lead me to want to try out this blogger thing. For the most part this will be stuff that I’m learning about for the first time or have had an interest in for a while. It being so close to the … Continue reading Hello 🦋
