At the rate I'm publishing these posts, it seems like my life is super busy and I'm always doing exciting things. The first part is true, but the second is subjective - but I will agree that my life is dynamic and doesn't often include the boredom you get from sitting at home in front of a computer for too long. Two weeks...
Despite having seen Ed Sheeran, months ago I bought standing tickets to his Stadium concert because 1) I've never been in the standing area of a concert before and 2) I'm quite a fan of Ed Sheeran. I have absolutely no regrets, even though people question why I went a second time in a year on the 9th December at Allianz Stadium (where...
I cannot even begin to describe all the emotions that went through me on Saturday 28th November (I know, this post is a month late whoops) when I was lucky enough for the second time to see Taylor Swift herself perform live at ANZ Stadium, Sydney to 76,000 people! (She took my concert virginity with her RED Tour in 2013). When people ask...
I'll be honest - I haven't published a blog post in a month and it's entirely my fault that I haven't done so. I can partially blame my social media/internet detox when I went away on two separate road trips, as well as putting in a lot of hours at work and my internship (which has now finished). Add on the fact that...
I love holidays. And although I'm going to be spending most of mine at work (like I have the last week, a full 31 + 16 hrs of it), it's great having the option of doing whatever you want or something productive when you're home. Lately all my days off have consisted of lying in bed until midday, getting up and doing a...
Hello friends! I'm so glad to say exams are finally over and I'm done with uni for the year - and most importantly, I'm back! I'm genuinely really excited to be on break, although holidays for me aren't really a 'break', it's just a chance for me to do what I want to do since I have all these mini-projects I want to...
I am an artist. And like every other artist, you have days where your creativity blossoms, everything flows and you can't keep up with yourself. But then you also have days where it becomes a slog to get through things and - if you're not dedicated or interested enough - you'll let it go. I said this in my last post but I'll...
Do you ever find that the more assessments and deadlines you have to meet, the more likely you are to find irrelevant things more interesting or more important? If yes, read on. If no, well, uh... You're pretty amazing. And for me? Last Sunday it resulted in me spending around six hours choreographing a 30 second piece for a dance class I was running....
I decided to take some time to myself and explore the Night Noodle Market in Sydney's Hyde Park last week, but I mentioned it at my work meeting and we decided to turn it into a little trip which was really nice. So what started as a "I'll drop by and check it out" turned almost into quite a meal because they were...
I've posted some interesting images on Twitter lately and I've also been doing a lot of thinking about how the way I see the world has changed. I said in an earlier post (Reflections on the Past Year) that a lot has changed in the past year and that I've grown up a lot, but my attitudes have also changed. It's interesting because...
Even though Law Revue has ended, my life has been just as crazy and I'm not sure where all my time went - I found myself exhausted, skipping class and since I stuffed up rostering for work (I said "next week" when I meant the week after, even though I said the dates for the following week) I went back to my job...
This time last year, I was graduating from high school and saying good bye to the place and the people that helped and watched me grow over the last six years of my life. This time last year, I was spamming Instagram with daily countdown posts, feeling a bit stressed out about Final Assembly but also having a blast and creating memories that...
I suffer from a case of FOMO (Fear of Missing Out, for anyone who doesn't know). It tends to happen when I give up a part of my life that seems much more fun for something else that's incredibly bland and boring in comparison - and it doesn't help that social media only tends to show the highlights. It's been a week since...
Where do you sit when you get on a bus? Is your go to place the front or the back of the bus, or do you not care? I tend to head for the seats just above the stairs before the wheel, and if the back of the bus looks full then I'll sit close to the back doors - but for some...
Hey friends! Okay so before I get into everything I'm doing the City2Surf this year and raising money for ROAR Charity - please sponsor me! I will love you forever and give you lots of hugs, plus you're helping disadvantaged kids at Linganwe School in Rwanda. Here's the link: https://city2surf2015.everydayhero.com/au/sarah-52. Anyway, I have about three drafts sitting in my posts at the moment....
Hello friends! I feel like my posts have been a little serious lately, and with one week left of blessed freedom before semester starts (and Law Revue) I wanted to give you a little update on my life during the Winter break, especially the little road trip I took with family to the Snowy Mountains at the end of June! I've only ever been...
I don't appreciate the sacrifices my parents made to build a better life here in Australia. I don't think many people do because they don't understand what they faced. It's simply because we often don't experienced the same hardships as them. If you're like me with parents who immigrated to Australia on borrowed money with few connections and knowing limited English, chances are...
