I am woman.

If you are ever feeling weak or heartbroken, just remember: 'i am woman'.


Dear 2011.

Dear 2011 i would just like to say that you surprised me quite a bit. I expected this year to be as typical as the last few years, full of drama and regret, but while there was some drama and a little bit of regret you still kicked ass!

Dear 2011 thankyou for the days when i saw my life is amazing.

Thankyou for the wonderful new people i have not only met but have gotten to know, the understanding staff at Taylor & Scott Lawyers and Beacon Lighting, i have learnt more than i ever thought i would this year.

Dear 2011 thankyou for Stephanie Cheniart, without this girl i would not have survived and i sure as hell would not be thanking you for anything right now. I have learnt that some friendships are worth everything you put into them.

Dear 2011 thankyou for giving me the time, strength, courage, power and support to finally get to know myself as an individual, and not as someone defined by the people in her life.

Thankyou for allowing me to learn some of the biggest lessons in life before it is too late, and thankyou for allowing me to see my mistakes and accept the past for what it is.

Dear 2011 thankyou for giving me more time.

Signed sincerely N.

Left Neglected.

I just finished reading the second novel by Lise Genova titled 'Left Neglected'.
Lisa is a writer with a PhD. in Neuroscience. After receiving great feedback for her debut novel 'Still Alice' Genova decided to yet again tackle issues of the mind.

'Left Neglected' is a story about Sarah Nickerson, a power career driven mother and business woman who has no time to spare in her busy schedule. After a car accident causes Sarah to suffer brain damage and a neurological condition called Left Neglect she is forced to take a step back in her busy life and slow down before she is left with nothing.

'Left Neglected' is an inspiring read for women of all ages as it makes us all question: what is more important to us - career or family? And how much would we sacrifice to have one or to have both?
This novel is a page turner, once you pick it up you will not be able to put it down, so makes yourselves a strong cup of coffee ladies and prepare to be stunned by how well Genova writes with understanding and compassion of the issues and standards of modern day success.


Ready to welcome the new year.

Hello readers! I hope you all had a very wonderful Christmas and are now prepared to await the new year! My plans have finally been settled, i was so stressed but now i am excited! I will be going to Collaroy Beach with my best friends and staying at Bellagio by the Sea.

Besides from planning NYE i really haven't been up to much, feasting with my family almost every day, reading a lot and working a little. While everything may seem to be all fun and relaxing this passed week has still managed to find its faults.

There is a lot i would like to say on the subject of one particular person who was in my life up until today but i honestly cannot find the right words to sum it up. Lets just say that a leopard never changes its spots. You hurt me once - shame on you. You hurt me twice - shame on me. Needless to say that was the end of that particular relationship.

Apart from all of that i am happy - happier than i have been in a while. I feel strong and confident and i am ready to welcome 2012.

Too much or not enough?

Okay, so here is a thought, am I the only one who wants her boyfriend to be a little protective? I mean not overly protective where every little thing causes an argument but enough to show that he cares and that he is proud to be mine.
It seems as though there is only one extreme with guys. They can only either give their whole selves to you or not enough or some get so confused they vary from one to the other sporadically. It's like 'come on guys! Are we really that hard to understand?'

Christmas

Christmas is my favourite time of the year. It means the five wonderful F's: friends, family, food, freedom (no uni) and fun! And it usually means that the weather is toasty warm, with this year being an exception. I hope you are all enjoying this festive season as much as i am.



Happy Holidays

Did the dingo really take the baby?

Thirty-one years on and the disappearance of baby Azaria Chamberlain is still a topic of discussion with Zoology Professor Mark Elgar saying that new research shows that the likelihood of a dingo taking Azaria is more likely than first believed.
While parents Lindy and Michael Chamberlain were exonerated from their convictions in 1987 this new information may bring them some hope in gaining recognition of their innocence.

2011.

As we reach the end of 2011 we are all left reflecting on the year that has passed. While everyone on Facebook is posting about how much they want 2012 to be here already i have to admit that 2011 has been pretty amazing.
There have been many hard times but overall i have had the best time of my life. I didn't go anywhere special or achieve anything great but i gained the best memories and learnt the most important lessons in life.

This year allowed me to see who my true friends are, people who i thought i could count on turned out to be nothing but fakes and those who i never expected to care about me turned out to be those who saved me. I was forced to be alone, truly alone, for the first time in years and while the thought of this would have scared me to death at the start of the year i survived and became a stronger person, i learnt who i was as an individual, this is the most valuable thing that i have gained from 2011.

Apart from all of this smaller things have impacted on my life in a big way, my sister got married and it was difficult adjusting to living without her just across the hall, i guess i never realised how much it meant having her close to me until she moved out. Now she is 6 months pregnant and we are all very excited, this baby means so much to us all and cant wait for the bubba to arrive (ill admit i'm getting a little clucky).

Yes, 2011 has been amazing, i cant remember a year where i laughed more, met more amazing people or showed myself how strong and capable i can be. Thankyou to all those wonderful people who made it what it is, join me in making 2012 even more fabulous?

Honesty.

Why is it that men are so incapable of telling the truth or being open? I mean, even when we ask them something so simple they cannot give us a straight answer. Oh and fellas, haven't u realized? Women find out everything! So please just be honest and dont try to keep anything from us, cause all your deepest regrets and your best kept secrets will be found out eventually. Didn't anyone ever teach you? Honesty is the best policy.

Right and wrong.

Who in any given situation determines what is right and what is wrong? I have been thinking about this a lot lately. If something is right to one and wrong to another then how can it be right at all? There are a lot of things I have to figure out and I have no idea where to start. If love, no matter how strong it is, has faults, can it still be absolute?

Love.

Every time i think of you and the future i want with you, with us, this song plays in my head.

Thursday 8 December 2011

I love you more than words could ever say. I hope that wherever life takes you it some day leads you to me.
