OMG NOTHING I WRITE MAKES SENSE

My life has taken quite a turn lately. I turned 21 and had one of the best weekends yet. Needless to say, my birthday event was a blur.
  • I threw up for the first time in my life over alcohol. By a tree, on someone's shoe, into the Darling Harbour. 
  • There was a fight at my birthday, somebody cried, I was completely unaware and LALALALAL!  
  • I woke up, dazed and confused as to where I was. Blanked out half the night. 
  • The weekend was all about relaxing at my friend's apartment in Newtown. Being alone and with nothing to do, I shopped like no tomorrow and impulsively got myself tattoos.
  • I had hilarious fun hanging with my girl pals, doing nothing but eating and laughing. So carefree and relaxing!
That's my 21 in a nutshell.


  • I received a letter from my past self via futureme.org on the eve of my birthday. It talks a lot about things I expect/hope myself to accomplish by now. And I can safely say they've all been ticked off.
  • I found myself a job that I am literally in LOVE with. I work at an agency that I've always looked up to and inspired to be a part of ONE day. I envisioned, you know, maybe years down the track, I'd get myself into this prestigious place, but here I am now. It does mean though, that everyday I am working in fear that I don't hold up to the high standards and get my ass dumped. Nonetheless, work is great. Everyday is insanely busy and there are endless deadlines and the stress is high, but when I get the chance to take a step back, I realise that it's fun. It pushes me, challenges me and is exactly what I hoped for.
  • There's a lot of things I want to do outside of work and everyday is busy and jam-packed with extra-curricular activities...i.e developing my hand-eye co-ordination skills in netball, PLANNING on entering advertising competitions, PLANNING on planning trips here and there...
  • I'm dying to travel and see the world. I know working here is going to play a huge role in getting me there, so hope to god this all works out.
  • I've been told that I am like a tortured artist (HAHAHAHA Maria)...purely because I always have so many dramas, so many emotions and things to express. I live a life of constant chaos. But for now, I can safely say I am chasing after something solid and real. Less chaos, more stability - because I know what I want and from here on, it should pretty much be a straight path.
  • Someone asked me, 'do you feel different now that you're 21?' and I said 'not really'. But I know I've changed a lot over these years.
