I’ll end this year of 202 with a thought on choice versus excuse. Are you a person who make choices or are you a person who find excuses? Cause the two paths are quite different. I believe a lot of us hide behind excuses instead of owning up to the fact that in the end, […]

I get lost in art, and carefully mixed messages.
I have a special skill of feeling too much when I shouldn’t, and nothing when I should. Why one might ask? Well it’s all in the interpretation of words and I am a constant seeker of hidden meanings in sentences spoken or in actions taken. No one can dissect the most minute word and make […]
The show must go on.
“Another hero, another mindless crime. Behind the curtain, in the pantomime. Hold the line. Does anybody want to take it anymore?” My inner person screams “find yourself a person who paints your life like lyrics from Freddie Mercury. ❤️ You’ll probably end up as broken and uncertain as many of us already are deep down […]
Language mayhem, autumn obsession and just a little bit of humour.
Ciao ragazzi! Imagine the joy I felt installing the Italian keyboard on my mobile phone because yes people, I’ve finally gone and done it. I’ve signed up for Italian lessons. The sexiest language in the world by far. And I’m loving every lesson. Scary as hell getting back behind a school bench but what is […]
Don’t get lost in a pile of must-dos.
My creativity is screaming from within to overlook the pile of must-dos and instead get lost in the carefully mixed messages beautifully filling my mind at the moment. To indulge in fantasies, storytelling and hardcore writing on an old-school typewriter wearing nothing but a pyjama shirt and woolly socks. To sit in front of a […]
Shape wear, Mummy of the Year Award and Italian for beginners.
We need to talk about shape wear and body confidence. Seriously people. The only time I’ve ever received the “congratulations on the baby” comment was when I wore a shaping body in Hanoi during a mingle reception for work. Since then, not once. Sure, a pair of high waist panties, but that’s not the same. […]
I’ve joined the club of drama queens, gentlewomen and alpha females. And we all have one thing in common.
Power. Of mind, heart and soul. Of our own destiny, our path forward and who we bring along for the ride. We are fearless, brave and strong. We create the rules we live by and we only stray for those who deserve it. Do we ever doubt ourselves? For sure. But do we pick ourself […]
Cognac, as in the root. And a little something called the end of an era.
How can I explain this without sounding like a crazy person? You know the feeling you get when you twirl spaghetti around your fork until it forms this perfect little pasta lump.. you bring the fork to your mouth and enjoy a mouthful of al dente cooked spaghetti smoothed in (at least for my liking) […]
The gang’s all here.. now get in formation will you?!
.. you would think I’d be used to it after this being my 6th move in 16 years. But no. It never ceases to amaze me how much crap one can collect, even though one spent weeks cleaning out and donating half of the household goods to colleagues and charities.. Despite all that hard work, […]
I’m just a musical prostitute my dear.
The one thing that I and Freddie Mercury have in common. We’re simply musical prostitutes. For him it was singing and performing on stage, for me it’s pumping up the volume on my speakers or my headphones 🎧 and sing as loud as I can. My head is full of music lyrics and all it […]
