The intricacies of the intrepid

The 5-month marks seems to be my quota. The only sense of time measurement of my life (and for this thought page) seems to come in bundles of 5. I can receive that! Australia has panned out to be semi-nostalgic, in the sort of way you try to avoid when it seems only the suppressed thoughts want arise and be dealt with. Life has been a little less zesty, it appears, since the last post, but sometimes it's healthy to dabble into the sticky side of your emotions! I do. I miss the ever-bipolar weathers of home, and can't seem to settle in between the blistering heat or glorious storms over here. There is one thing I just cannot deny however, this time has helped me to reconcile with my inner spirit woman. I've sort of been in between spirirtual allignment - there's just so much out there, so many theories, and beliefs and concepts and doctrines that I've found myself swimming through their intricacies. It's funny how in times of utter desperation and lonliness though, you find what you are looking for. Or rather, it waits to find you.

Pond da replay (haha) Sorry about the pun.. ponder replay.
Love you guys xx

Building a building

When I listen to this song, something changes. His voice actually transports you to an inward adventure, almost opening windows within your soul. Patrick Watson is a rayon du soleil.  Let this move you

WONDER WANDER WUNDER

Firstly, I wish you all a very belated Merry Christmas and Happy New Year =j I hope you've all jumped into 2013 with a zest and zeal like no other year! I can't wait to see the wonders twenty-thirteen have to unravel.

Wow! It's been 5 wholesome months since I last wrote to you, cyber-system. To say the least things have definately been under construction work in my life. I guess that's a give-in though, because it seems everytime I write here (with light hehe) things have drastically changed. I guess that's in my nature - all or nothing baby ! Haha it's horrible blessing meets excellent curse. So dear friends, who I sometimes wonder are real, let me begin to explain.

August through to November really went as a blurr. Amongst all the crazy and tame I guess I can walk out alive being so grateful for amazing, beautiful soul sisters and brothers! In November I decided to pack up my things and shack on over to the wonderful Australia. I've been here for 5 weeks now. Time is such a butterfly - flittering in and around the wavelengths of our lives, often going un-noticed in the noise. The first few weeks over here were a challenge and a half. I havn't lived with my family for years, so being a go-getting jet-setting 20 year-old back under parental-supervision didn't make the best melange. After getting over myself  bit, I soon became very grateful for the full-cooked dinners and rent-free living arangements very quickly.

I started exploring week 2 and 3 and found myself camping most days in this wonderland of a town called Freo. I guess you could say it's where all the hippies groove out, so I've found myself very at home! I spend most of my hours at the beach; writing musicand in the waves. I believe that this is essencial for every mad-man's recovery/ best way to enjoy the summer. Since being over here I have made some crazy-cool friends with common interests! Although I miss everyone back home tonnes, I am loving life here - the five weeks I've lasted so far - and it can only get better. I start uni soon which I'm stoked about! 1 more year of essay-slavery left to endure, until freedom will be at my fingertips. I can taste it! Weeeee heeeeee ! Okay this novel has gone on for long enough

Until the next time my beauties

La vida chocolida

What a crazy month. After break ups, and break downs, and breaks full stop, I bumped into a blast from the past! Well actually, it's more like he caught me.

An ex boyfriend shortly after got hold of me (without knowing about the breakup) and suddenly declaired his  previous, and still present, feelings for me... That was interesting. After 3 days we realized that it's probably for the best he stay with his current girlfriend in France, and we continue on with our lives as we were, but this time, not hating one another :) I feel, that that too was a wise decision on both of our houses !

So to clear my head out of all the crazy city haze, I have retreated to the beach.

Here are a few fun pics of the incredible winter weather I have been having. I may also have a slight obsession with nature.... but it's optional

And so I continue to dip my feet into the oceans of happiness and life. This month (August) is going to be incredible. In a week I am off to Wellington city for Arise church conference. We will there be joined with Christchurch & Wellington 'Ariser's' AND it get's better.... on August 27th I am off to Fiji for a wedding... where I could possibly be singing. Man I am so blessed. I praise God everyday for my blessings. Have a super week world

CHANGE

Man, I can't believe it took me until now to clean through this blog. Because I didnt have a thinkbook last year, this page was created in its place to pour out all of my heartbreak, and what a great job it did. I also loved the fact that I could write anything, and it would be virtually lost in the solar system of the internet. So to catch you all up, this year has been a life-saver. I havn't really done anything too crazy, yet, but I have just become so grounded in myself. Full of zest and craziness again. I FEEL ALIVE
I did my first gig this year for a friend's magazine launch party at this beautiful little bar - Static's the name. It went super well. I play alongside Val who is a good friend from the church I go to. It was a crazy experience, I felt so at peace singing on that stage. So in my element. I'm in no place to get famous, but to get up and there and sing it all out, feels so good =j
Last weekend was Aaron's birthday, so Joe suprised him and planned for all of us to meet up. These are some photos that Val took. THEY ARE SO GREAT!

 I Love my friends! On a side note: It's almost summer AMEN !
