Motivation Monday

It’s been a while since I’ve posted, tafe has taken up a fair amount of time! So here’s a little motivation for this week! 

Don’t let opportunity go to waste. Everyday is a new beginning, and it’s a chance to change some aspect of your existence in this world.

I’m down to the very last week of the Dual Diploma of Business and Business Administration at Tafe. I finally feel like I’ve accomplished something by sticking to my guns and getting it done. There’s nothing I can’t do if I put my mind to it and stick it out. So many times I wanted to give up, but my husband made me work through it. It’s been hard, but seeing the finish line now makes it all worth while. Who knew at the beginning of this year I was going to accomplish this much?

Don’t waste your days stuck in a repetitive cycle no matter what it is, seize the day and change it! Make it better for yourself!

I’m Just Gonna Leave This Here….

This above quote is spot on.

I’m all for using social media platforms to express your emotions, creativity and all that awesome stuff… But airing your “dirty laundry” – well that is something COMPLETELY different!!! This has been something I have chosen not to talk about for as long as I have been on any social media sites, particularly Facebook. So this is something I’ve truly thought long and hard about. It’s something I’ve felt the need to open up and talk about as quite frankly, enough is enough.

When you air your grievances publicly about a person who you are seemingly close to (like a partner, family member, friend, etc), you are painting a bad light around them. And when people see/heard what you have said, without listening to the other side, the people will side with you, because lets face it… You’re the one who has to put up with what this person has done to annoy you or upset you or made you angry, right? It’s bad enough that you’ve done this to someone you say you love/like, but surely it makes people wonder WHY you did this and HAVE YOU SPOKEN TO THAT MENTIONED person?

Let’s just put it like this, I’m happily married and have been in a relationship with my husband for nearly 10 years. In that time, there has been no reason to air negative things or “dirty laundry” publicly because he and I COMMUNICATE! Communication is key in all aspects of life. In my honest opinion, if you resort to airing your “dirty laundry” on social media, you and the person you’re not happy with are not successfully communicating and resolving your differences in private. If it gets heated, remove yourself from that situation, calm down and revisit it when you’re both okay to do so.

Please, for the love of all things that are great with you and that person, don’t make them out to be bad when there is no need for it! You’re making a mountain out of an ant hill!
Have a wonderful week and HAPPY EASTER to you all!

Getting Itchy Feet

I love to travel… I feel recharged everytime I go away, even if it is up the coast for a long weekend. I have the itch, but the lack of funds and tafe stops me… I just have to be patient, and hope some time soon after graduation I can travel somewhere again. You only live once, get out there and see it all!!!

Saturday Night Motivation

It’s been a fairly quiet week. Study has been manic, and to be quite honest… Crap.

It’s been a pretty disheartening experience. I think I’d be better off just studying online. I learn more when I’m doing it myself. But that shouldn’t be that way should it? I don’t know. I have to keep saying to myself that it’s only until June. The year is flying and before you know it it’ll be graduation and starting a business!

If I can give any advice, it will be this. Just keep going. Don’t look back and keep working until you succeed. Prove the negative wrong. Just don’t stop!

Truth Saturday

It’s like everything really… Don’t hold yourself back… Get up and do what you want, what will make you happy! If it’s a dead end job, go find something that will make you enjoy it and move up to new heights. If it’s wanting a partner because you’ve been single for too long, don’t worry about that and just go have fun, you will find each other eventually… Travel the world, even if it means you go backpacking! Don’t just be in your little bubble and follow the path of people before you if it makes your soul hurt! Life isn’t about perfection, it’s not about following one path, it’s about LIVING! It’s about friends, family, exploring, having fun… All the great things that LIVING has to offer!!! If you’re getting married and everyone wants the big white wedding but you and your partner don’t want that at all…. ELOPE! Take it from a woman who did just that! Happy Saturday and weekend everyone!

Feeling Unmotivated

We all should be working toward something that will better our lives in every way! It’s been almost a month since I started the Dual Diploma, and I’m really struggling with it all. My motivation has gone out the window.

It probably doesn’t help that I’m not well. I have to think about the end goal, what I am going to get out of it. And it’s all falling into place. I just have to get my head out of the fog it’s currently in.

Sunday Morning

Council kerbside rubbish collection is this week, so this morning my hubby and I got rid of a bunch of crap that we put together for the occasion! We had it taking up space in our living room… Feels so good for it to be gone! I love to declutter every now and again in all aspects of my life! I feel good this morning, even if my ear is hurting! 

Happy Sunday lovely people!!! Hope it’s been a fabulous weekend for you all!

Lazy-ish Weekend!

Happy Saturday people!!!

Yesterday after I finished class I finally got my hair done! I haven’t been to the hairdresser since the end of October 2016, so there was a pretty decent amount of regrowth that needed touching up! For the last year I’ve had one part of my head shaved, and I love it! So yesterday, I took the plunge and had the other side shaved! I have a lot of hair, and having it long can get really heavy.

I still cannot get over how long it has gotten! Just over 4 years ago I had a choice, go blonde or go short. At the time I was scared of going blonde more than going short… So I went short. Biggest hair mistake of my life! It has taken me all this time to get my hair to the length of I can wear it down and can grab the tips when I twist my arm around my back (just past the shoulder blades)! Yeah I could’ve done extensions while I was growing my hair, but I didn’t feel that is was overly necessary even if it was annoying!

What is your biggest hair regret?

Happy weekend loves!!! Hope it’s relaxing and fun!!!!

Valentines Day!



A little bit late BUT!! Happy Valentines Day to my wonderful hubby LBJ – the best of the best! Everyday is Valentines Day with him in my life, I’m the luckiest woman in the world!! You complete me my love!!!

Happy Valentines Day to you all too!!! Wherever you are! 🌹

A Little Appreciation!

A little bit of a recent throwback and appreciation to the guy in blue!!! My husband!!! He’s kind, caring, funny, sexy and a whole bunch of other things rolled into 1 real man!!! He’s supported me throughout our entire relationship thus far, and has even allowed me to finish a dual diploma this year, with the hopes of making something out of it that’s worth while and rewarding… There’s no one else for me, you’re just it! 

I’ve been studying most of the day and thought of sharing this with you all!

Have a great Thursday!
