  • Why did nobody tell me!?

    Why did nobody tell me!?

    So, ummm, why did no one tell me that putting yourself out there, promoting your work, is scary!? Nobody told me. Not a single body, and I don’t appreciate it. I was throwing my tantrum too my friend – as you do – and like any good friend would do, she completely ignored my foolishness.…

    Growth, is that you?

    I remember watching a video of a lady who is in her 50s talking about life in your 30s—just thinking about it seems like your 30s is such a key decade; a lot of changes and a lot of growth happen or should be happening. But anyway, she spoke about a lot of things which…

    This Christmas

    Christmas is usually my favourite time of year. I love the hustle and bustle. The stress of ensuring you have everything for your infamous mac n cheese.
