Well, it’s officially been twelve months since I fell over in Laos while walking from a market to my hotel room. And to celebrate – I had a second surgery. Okay yes, this one is nowhere near as major as the last one and also hurts a lot less at the moment (hold that thoughtContinue reading “The tale of two ankles”

The battle to get better
It’s been a while since I really wrote about my life apart from the usual OMG-we’re-back-at-uni-shock post which has become an annual occurrence. The last update was way back in February (click here to read). Anyway, since netball training isn’t on tonight I went out for a Thursday night run (just my standard easy 5km up toContinue reading “The battle to get better”
Snap, back to reality
Yes, an Eminem reference (I can feel Jes rolling her eyes through the screen). Don’t worry, there is a background to my Eminem obsession – most of you know that I grew up just south of Penrith in a little area called Glenmore Park. Well, when we moved in my first year of uni, aContinue reading “Snap, back to reality”
Coming Home
It’s sometimes said that coming home is the best and worst part of a trip. I feel like this is amplified a lot when your homecoming is a) a lot sooner than you expected and b) after a really, really long time away! Prepare for a very honest blog post – this is very differentContinue reading “Coming Home”
The semester thus far….
So it’s been awhile. Kind of a ridiculous while. But I think I can be forgiven considering my current schedule is muchos hectic! Working three days a week and studying full time is proving to be a bit more of a challenge than I initially anticipated, but it’s finally that glorious time of the semester:Continue reading “The semester thus far….”
The 2014/15 Annual Tibeston New Year’s Camping Trip
The annual extended family New Year’s Eve camping trip has come and gone again. For the past seven years or so we’ve been heading down to the South Coast of NSW for a week to go camping. A few times we’ve extended it to a month (usually when Mum realises she has eight weeks offContinue reading “The 2014/15 Annual Tibeston New Year’s Camping Trip”
The day Mel rode the horse from Tangled
My friend Mel went through a stage in Year 12 where she was obsessed with the movie Tangled (the HSC did strange things to all of us okay?) On Monday, we went on a four hour ride at Glenworth Valley – 2 hours in the morning, 2 hours in the afternoon. We were in the secondContinue reading “The day Mel rode the horse from Tangled”
Summer 2015 Bucket List
So, it’s that time of year again. January. Inevitably every year I get to this point and start looking around for new things to do. Finished my internship, barely back at work and have another two months off from uni. And so the annual Summer Bucket List is born. I always create them, never finishContinue reading “Summer 2015 Bucket List”
A Prismatic Tuesday
I have finally experienced the ultimate perk of being an unpaid intern: the corporate box. I walked in about 6pm on Tuesday from a very long afternoon at work. As I always do, I messaged my boss at my internship to remind her that I’d be in the next day. The response was definitely notContinue reading “A Prismatic Tuesday”
Old Friends and Picnics
You know those people that you’ve just known forever, that you can always message and they’ll be up for doing stuff, and they just know so much about you that it’s easy? Internet, meet Bryce and Claire!
