What happens if I can’t write anymore? What happens if one day I just woke up and the ability to write failed me? What happens if I never feel the urge to put pen to paper again? What happens if the lack of emotion I feel towards any situation in life hampers my ability to … More Motivation: dead
It’s been a month since I last wrote or published a blog post. Wow. For a budding writer with a burgeoning passion and flair for wordscraftmanship, with a wanton desire to become a published author or reporter, and a penchant for spinning a yarn, whether that be a yarn of interesting prose or an essay … More A change is as good as a rest?
I’ve been in Australia almost four months now, and in Melbourne just over a month, and I’ve been thinking. A lot. So I thought it was about time I wrote something about what’s been happening in my wonderfully exciting life since I left the delights of Marvel Loch and WA. Following a successful and enjoyable … More To Be A Melburnian Or A Mancunian: Are They One And The Same?
The end of the road in Marvel Loch came on Monday 10th October 2016 and if I was to say the last eight weeks had been uneventful then I’d be lying. At times it may have felt like I’d been imprisoned, cut off from the outside world, lacking in information and sensory overload, carrying out … More And Just Like That, It Was Over
It’s the beginning of week seven here in Marvel Loch and although I’m excited slash nervous slash a tad apprehensive about heading to Melbourne in a few weeks, believe it or not I’ll also be quite sad to leave this little place I’ve come to call home. The next two weeks are sure to pass … More Day 42 In Marvel Loch: And Now The End Is Near
On Tuesday night we had a fire. Don’t worry though, it wasn’t an actual “my house is burning down, save the kids and that photo of Aunty Beryl” kind of fire; exciting things like that don’t happen in Marvel Loch. No, this was a pit fire. A pit fire in the bush…with alcohol! Trine and … More Days all blend together in good old Marvel Loch
Remember the new gym I wrote about last week? The one I was told existed but I hadn’t had chance to find? Today, Trine and I found it! Now I know what you’re thinking, you’re thinking I’m about to enthral and dazzle you with a tale of how spectacularly hi-tech this gym is, how I’m … More Day Seven in Marvel Loch
It’s the end of my first week in Marvel Loch (The Town Midas Touched) and any pre-conceived doubt I had about coming here has been well and truly eradicated. In fact, I’ve quite enjoyed being out in the country away from the rat-race, cut off from society; and despite my tendencies to piss and moan … More Week One in Marvel Loch – Content and pleasantly surprised
So today I had to get up early. And by early I don’t mean like 5:30am, haha, oh no, I of course mean 7:30am (which is early enough). The reason, you may ask, as to why I needed to rise at such an ungodly hour when I only started work at 5pm? Well well well, … More Day Four in my new favourite place – some light reflection in Mining Land…
After what can only be described as a fantastically reaffirming time in Hong Kong where I managed to take-in, see, and splendour at all the sights and sounds I regretted to visit on my last trip there, I made my way to Perth, with a stoic optimism and a positive attitude directed at whatever lay … More What do you do when things don’t work out? Head to the Outback of course.
