I have lived in an inner-city apartment for the last forty years of my life. Originally a young boy from the Peninsula, I moved to the city of Melbourne at the ripe age of eighteen to go to university. There were more opportunities for me in the city and my chosen career path required me …
I got my bath tub converted and it’s been really good for my body. Coming to the end of my career has meant my feet have been really struggling. Being a nurse means being on your feet for over twelve hours per shift and even as a young girl I felt that was very painful. …
Today didn’t go to plan. Even with six extra people on-site with me trying to get this job done, we’re still not close enough to hitting our deadline. We should be way ahead of the point that we’re at now, and I’m really concerned that it’s my neck on the line if things don’t get …
My favourite thing in the world is that drive home from work on a Friday afternoon. My workplace has this rule that we’re not allowed to work past 4 pm on a Friday as a reward for all our hard work during the week, which is just awesome. It means that we not only get …
In order to stop the evil Watchers from completely taking over the world, I would first need to understand my enemy. Thus, I arranged a meeting with the new Mayor of Bayside, Charles Watcher, pretending to be writing a report for school. He happily agreed and told me to come to the main building of …
Sailing a ship that is tethered to another ship by a short rope is a lot harder than it sounds. And yes, I’m aware that it sounds hard. That’s how hard it is. Basically impossible. Nash Fawcett and I keep shouting at each other to try coordinating, but it totally isn’t working. Captains Burbridge and …
I’m painting a mural of my mother on the sidewall of our childhood home. She passed away a couple of months ago, and it’s been really hard on our entire family, but my father especially. My mother and father were married for 63 years and were more in love than most newlyweds at the time …
Okay, I’m writing part three of five in a massive rush. I’ve had such a crazy busy week and I only have about thirty minutes to dedicate to writing this post. I wasn’t expecting my posts to be as popular as they have been, but I’m really flattered nonetheless. Now that I’ve gotten that out …
I’m starting my own business and I’m looking for investors. I can’t go into too much detail about what the business entails, but pretty much it’s the next big finance technology in Australia. It’s going to be revolutionary and it will change the lives of investors and big businesses all over the country. The problem …
Lauren was supposed to be here over an hour ago. Where is she? My mother is starting to pout about her hors d’oeuvres going cold (I’m pretty sure they were cold to begin with, but never mind), and that can only mean one thing: Lauren is getting another strike against her name. That’s just what …
