I’m teaching my boyfriend of two and a half years to drive. He’s twenty-five years old and doesn’t have his drivers license, which is fine, but he’s ready to start learning now. I’m really honoured that he’s chosen me to be his teacher. I have my full license so it’s completely legal for me to …
I’m taking my son to the podiatrist today. He’s been complaining about sore feet for the last few weeks now, so I figured enough was enough. “Son, you aren’t going to win the world championship of indoor soccer like that,” I said. He responded with, “But I don’t want to be a champion indoor soccer …
I want to play a word association game with you. Ever since I was a child, I’ve loved playing word games. My mother was an English tutor at university, you see, so she played them with me a lot. Word searches and crossword puzzles when I was young, then more advanced games as I became …
Career counselling day at school again? I feel like we have one of these every few months, which seems a little overkill if you ask me. I’ve even chatted to our year level’s coordinator, and he just says that these days are necessary so that we are extra prepared for the world outside of high …
Charlie’s at it again, is he? I don’t understand why he thinks that the Bow Rails would be a good name for a football team. He’s the club president, so he’s telling everyone that’s what we’re called, even though we haven’t had a vote on it yet. Apparently his blog post said that we all …
I’ve been really struggling lately because I haven’t been able to play my favourite video game ever: Spyridon the Chimera. The game works fine, as does my console, but the conditions have been poor lately. I like to really immerse myself in the gameplay, making it feel like I’m actually right there with my favourite …
I’m writing this blog post to give a warning to anyone from Victoria. If you hear about a shop called Metal Suppliers Melbourne, it is not a place to buy steel supplies. I’m very frustrated because the reviews for this business are glowing. Somebody said it was the “best metal Melbourne had to offer”, and …
I don’t understand why people won’t believe me when I tell them about Concept Artists and the scandal behind their first album. I keep telling my roommate that I should give the story to a reporter, but he insists nobody will care. We’re dealing with one of the most famous bands of the last few …
One of my favourite things to do is listen to the radio. I lose myself in the stories shared by the hosts and the listeners. I revel in the music and new beats and I’m obsessed with the escapism of the whole experience. I mostly listen to the radio when I’m driving. This is because …
As it turns out, children are far more destructive than I expected. This weekend we’ve had my niece and nephew over, while my sister and her husband go out of town. Tom tried to warn me, he really did, but I wouldn’t listen. He grew up in a big family, with two younger brothers and …
