The more I think about it, the more I think she had it right. The Queen of Hearts, one of the most hated story characters of all time, is one of my favourite. The Queen wore pretty red dresses, she played croquet and probably drank Pimms and had the balls (read tenacity, strength and self … Continue reading Queen of Hearts
The List. In February of 2014 I wrote a list. A list of things that I want in a partner. The list at the time was important. It consisted of a number of prerequisites that at the ripe old age of thirty-three were very, very important. It is almost October and in two months I am … Continue reading The List
I do this occasionally; I think myself much more artistically talented than I actually am. It's like walking out of the movies from watching Step Up and thinking that by standing in front of a fan, you are this amazing dancer that can shake it like Channing Tatum on a bad day. Last night I … Continue reading Wanted: Nipple tassels and a feather fan
Bachie's choice in timepieces is amazing. I am not a religious Bachelor fan. I do not sit every week and watch every minute of both episodes however it is on my television while I fill in wedding paperwork, clean my fans, drink cups of tea and eat cooking chocolate from the melt packet hidden in … Continue reading How The Bachelor turned me a into a (wo)man hater.

The stalking, the chase, the looking and the making up stories, it's fun and it's safe. There is no … Continue reading I want to give you socks!
I am aware that I am on a cruise boat in the South China Sea. I am aware that I said yes to this kind of holiday. It was never meant to be that kind of 'party hard', 'only live once' kind of holiday but nowhere in any of my reading material did I see … Continue reading Ship Ahoy
I've been off internet dating for a few months. The obsessive trawling and ongoing hypothetical storytelling got too much for my insecurities to handle. I've had a lot going on and I was petrified that I would have to go on a date and explain to a potentially hot stranger why the snot bubbles that … Continue reading Grammarist
People say as you get older that you'll feel like a grownup. That soon enough you will start craving those things that appear on the checklist of adulthood. I didn't believe them. I never thought I would get to a point where I would want to call myself a grown up. Couldn't imagine a life … Continue reading Can you go blind from looking at too much house porn?
I am currently in Yufuin. It's a one street town at the base of a mountain. Mountain climbers don't come here. Westerners don't come here. Who does come here? Old Japanese people on large bus trips. They walk the street eating ice cream, holding hands while buying beautifully wrapped sweet treats for people that aren't … Continue reading Next Stop!
