Homesick

I haven’t missed home for so long. But tonight I miss it bad. Tonight I feel really faraway from everything I need.
I miss Melbourne. I miss staying with (Aunt) Nene and doing all the fun things we did- going to the theatre, taking Jordy & Bertie for evening walks, drinking champagne, going out for cocktails, [...]

What’s a Girl to do?

I love a good line graph. I mean let’s face it…who doesn’t? Like an echocardiogram monitor- you’re there with every beating pulse. So you see gentle readers…I know…I know you’re all browsing over my witty social commentaries. I know who- when- and how often. I am omnipotent with the word-press line graph. It is like [...]

Spontaneous Visit

Unplanned nights are always the best ones. Maybe it’s because there’s no pressure to have a good time when it’s spontaneously decided. You haven’t put time or effort into choosing outfits, applying make-up, straightening/styling the hair. Usually…you’re dressed down- for me this is characterized by a pony-tail and hooded sweatshirt. Certainly nothing sexy about the [...]

Emily-Rose vs Emily-Roxette

The duality of one’s personality is rather interesting don’t you think? It seems that often our bodies house a multitude of polar opposites. Like in the old-school Disney movies where an angel would sit on one shoulder, and a little Lucifer on the other. I guess it’s called a conscience. I got over Disney about [...]

Dear All,
This morning whilst quietly enjoying my train ride into work- I discovered an old legendary playlist on the ipod. This playlist had quite a profound impact upon my mood. Not normally a morning person…by the time I’d arrived at Goodge St I was in such an ecstatic mood I almost considered taking the stairs [...]

Wednesday’s

Wednesday is ‘hump day’. It’s as good a day as any for me to write because it gives me something else to write about other than what’s going on right now. I guess another thing I could write about (to keep myself distracted) is what kind of blog I want this to be…Do I want [...]

London- A Like/Hate Relationship

The ongoing Like/Hate relationship I endure with London continues…
 
Today I HATE London. Here is a couple of reasons why…
 
Supermarket Checkout Operators. (This rant does not apply to the polite and cheerful chaps at M&S or Waitrose). Why is it that employees who operate a cash register possess enough motor co-ordination to skilfully press the buttons- [...]

Writing to write…

Sometimes my head can be totally empty- yet I’m filled with the desire to scrawl pages and pages of endless words. Now is a perfect example. I’m sitting here trying to work out what’s worth articulating…and what’s not. I’m trying to separate the crap from the credible- but it’s proving difficult. Today- everything in my [...]
