I wish I was braver
I was at Tafe the other day trying to enrol in my course. The lady at the administration office asked me for some personal details, which I didn’t mind. It was necessary. She asked me if I currently reside in Australia. I said yes. Then she asked me if I am an Australian citizen. I said yes. She replied with “permanent resident”. I repeated myself again just in case she...

We get it, internet.
That one guy on Skyrim got shot in the knee by an arrow and didn’t want to adventure anymore. Despite Skyrim taking many arrows in the face and continuing life.

Now can we PLEASE move on and quit flooding my dash every day of my life with dumb pictures and posts about it?
Thanks.

Dear Coke Talk: On the nice guy. →
dearcoketalk:
I’m “the nice guy” that is best friends with girls but never has sex with them. I had two girlfriends in high school for a month each and none since then. Every time I try to hook up with a girl she stops and leaves. I’m shy, so I have a hard time meeting girls. I know I’m my own worst enemy. I…
Yep. There is always that guy. Thanks Coke Talk. :)

Skyrim eats my life
I have an exam in 8 hours.
“Eh. 8 hours. Let’s play some Skyrim… There’s plenty of time to memorize all these accounting concepts … right?”
Oh and I spent most of my afternoon naked in bed playing the Pokemon card game with Tom. He’s a crafty motherfucker that one. Pulled out his freaky machamp and owned my poor Charmeleon. D: Boobs are not super...

Bible Logic
I was brought up in a religious household. My mother is a staunch defender and worshipper of Jehovah and Jesus. My father is religiously ambivalent and tolerant. I studied the Bible as a child and into my adolescence.
I have been an atheist for many years.
But I don’t see faith as dangerous. I believe that faith tempered with reason and compassion is a good thing. If your beliefs motivate...

Today
I have an accounting assignment due tomorrow and I got stuck on Statement of Cash Flows cause for some reason, we’re not using depreciation expense or accumulated depreciation. :/ And the fake company we’re analysing is terrible at selling their assets.
Anyway, I was stressing cause I couldn’t make it work D: The numbers weren’t adding up and the tutor was saying one thing...

An Intervention!
I understand that you are in pain. I understand that you feel alone, despair, and self loathing. I understand that you feel like no one really cares about you. That no one ‘gets’ you and your problems. I know that you have a medical condition, be it physical, mental or emotional.
I can relate to that. I understand that getting up, making an effort, pretending to be normal feels and is...

Halloween; the holiday of slut-shaming?
So I’m just scrolling through Tumblr, checking out various tags and I see so many slut-shaming posts written by women with relation to “Halloween sluts”.
I know that Halloween means costumes and frankly, we girls get the short end of the stick. Our costumes are blatantly short, revealing and very very inaccurate. We’re sexualised and objectified. I get that. I get that...

The Quiet
I had always thought of love previously like a flame. Bright, desperate, passionate and yet so fleeting. If unrequited, it lingered onwards, slowly melting and fading. If returned, love was suffosed with oxygen, it was feed and it would grow and then perhaps turn inwards, destructive.
I’ve always searched for the hopeless. The sense of upcoming tragedy. The self sabotage. The endless...

I wish I had
a teapot. Really.
I love drinking tea. Especially that first fragrant fresh cup. The steaming coiling coy mists carrying that sweetness of flavour. Depth. Delicious. There’s a variety to tantalise the tastebuds. Green. Jasmine. Chrysanthemum. Rose. Vanilla. Lemon. Peppermint. Black. Red. White. Just to list a few in my cogged cupboard.
Now, I just need a teapot.

Paranoia
Sometimes I fear that I am going mad. I try not to go outside. I avoid large groups of people when I am alone. I fear that they can read my face and know paranoia grips me. This isn’t normal.
When we enter the shopping centre and he leaves me to attend to his business, I flounder like a sailor lost in turbulent seas. I am anxious. Nervous. Afraid. I’ll move to a spot where I can see...
