Cairns

I arrived at Cairns on the 30th July 2017, a day after my birthday. I remember the flight with Air New Zealand, because I realised I could lift up another section of the chair to make an ‘almost’ bed, or at least a footrest to lay your legs on. That was a big bonus for…

Soaring through the sky

The North and South Islands in New Zealand are the complete opposite to one another. I went in July, which is winter for them. The South Island had enormous valleys and mountains. I could imagine dinosaurs roaming around as I felt I had gone back in time. Whereas the North Island was a lot more…

White lines, blue skies

The title of this blog is the name of the song played every time we got on the Contiki coach in New Zealand. Look it up. It stays in your head for a while. I decided to go to Australia and New Zealand during the summer of 2017. I was able to have the summer…

Thank you

You came into my life when i was feeling down. I don’t believe there was a specific reason for it, i just wasn’t feeling my best. We met on a penpal site where there were a lot of forward and ‘weird’ messages. You seemed the most ‘normal’ out of the bunch. We just got talking….

Life

**As I am useless at keeping up to date with my blog, I forgot that I had written something similar a few posts previous to this but I didn’t want to take this one down as there’s some extra bits in it too. You never know what is going to happen. At the end of…

Neighbours

I’ve probably said it a thousand times but, I loved my childhood! I have many fond memories growing up and a lot of those included my neighbour, John. I believe John moved into the house next door when I was 1 or 2 years old. He was a fisherman and would always have some fish…

Anxiety

Why is this a thing? I hate having anxiety, especially when I feel like I have let someone down. I have social anxiety or atleast, that’s what I think it is. I have always felt like I have had some kind of wall up. I don’t know when it was put up, If anything triggered…

Selfies – 2016

This is the third year I have done this. I was putting the pictures together and all of a sudden thought I was incredibly vein. Then I remembered why I started doing it in the first place. It was a quote that was similar too, ‘in that moment, that person felt good enough to take…

My wall

I have a wall up.  I have always had a wall up and I cannot seem to knock it down. If I get excited I do not really show it. In photographs I always have the same expression, which quite frankly looks bored, and I just cannot express myself to others. There are probably 3…

My dream

I think I’ve said it a few times on here but I’ve loved Dolphins for as long as I can remember. Seeing them in the wild has been a dream of mine though I have never had the chance to go and see them anywhere. In August I went to Rhodes, Greece. We went on…

I want love to prevail

My mummy was crying in the kitchen I had no idea why I went to give her a kiss and a hug When she said my uncle was a great guy My uncle went to Japan On what I thought was a holiday Although now he is there in prison As he only wanted to…

The National Anthem

I would say I was patriotic.  Right now, watching the Olympics, I feel like I am right there cheering on team GB.  One thing I have noticed is how hardly any of our Olympians sing the National Anthem. I am not saying that’s a bad thing but compared to the other countries who sing, or…
