The Happier Moments of May

This morning, I woke up with a jolt at 12PM.  I realised that all three of my alarms just refused to stir me awake at 10.30AM like it was suppose to (I often sleep at 3am-4am so I'm not one of those indulgent over-sleepers). But I'm glad I didn't wake up so early to cut off my dream. It was a wonderful one - he smiled at me, held me, brushed my hair behind my ear and whispered sweet nothings. When I woke up, He haunted my mind.
This month of May I predicted was supposed to be a sad one. And it was, in some ways - disputes with close friends, abit of disappointment from my friends as they let me down, no money, no motivation to clean my room. But I wasn't locking myself up in a room or work bathroom to cry about Him. I don't know how but I seem to have discovered some inner strength I must've reserved just for this month.
I continue my day as normal - work, blog, read emails, exercise, photoshoots, spend my nights with close friends etc and I rarely think about Him. I just think : Ignorance is Bliss. Yet no matter bloody what, you cannot escape your dreams. It must've been my subconscious letting out all the feelings I bottled up during the day. So I battle my mind when I wake up reminded of Him. I then spend the next couple of hours trying to forget it all again - read and watch bad TV.
Another way to forget (during the day) is to go to far away places with one of your best friends. Here I am at Mona Vale and my friend Betty instructs me to mount a fence that wasn't as stable as I thought. I rolled around on that log as it tipped me forwards and backwards. The result: some fun laughs and giggles and a reminder that I was indeed happy during the Month of May.

Hi all! How inspiring are you all. I've been reading through all your comments and finding such wonderful goals and dreams that you all want to be working hard for! Makes me want to keep working harder and harder in what I love.Thank you :)

Today I took a stroll in my sunburnt country. Anyone who lives here knows our native land. First, there are plenty of gum (eucalyptus) trees, light (almost yellow) drier grass, a bright burning sun, and kangaroos lazing around in our backyard (just kidding!). Actually, many people who visit always expect kangaroos and koalas hanging off trees in our backyards or rolling around in the grass... but this isn't actually the case for most of us. In truth I've only seen kangaroos in the outback behind fences and koalas in wildlife parks. 

What sort of things are native to your country? We have chants like "AUSSIE, AUSSIE, AUSSIE, OI OI OI" and our salty spread Vegimite (but I heard its British now?). We also have a hole in our ozone layer, so we get stronger UV sunrays. It has lead to us having a unique sun protection campaign called "SLIP, SLOP, SLAP" which I think is - SLIP on a t-shirt, SLOP on some sunscreen and SLAP on a hat.

It's pretty catchy and especially good for kids to learn around here. Today I'm displaying the SLAP part, I've slapped on a hat. And a wide one as well. Counts as extra super duper protection. 

And by the way, I absolutely want the bag from Kayture's blog, from this post here; or see below. It's such a nice colour, and the shape is so cute! I've found a yellow one here, WISHLIST indeed!
