30 Day Challenge Again - Day One

a recent picture of you and 15 interesting facts about yourself


I'm revisting the 30 Day Challenge. My 2010 Day One post can be found here (I haven't looked at what I wrote, so I wonder if any of my facts will be the same?!)


Here's a pic of me with bluey purple hair and no makeup taken right now! 

interesting facts:
1. I have always wanted to have brightly coloured far out hair but was too afraid to do it until this year 
2. In high school I was so worried about being teased by my bullies that I was afraid to change my hair or get a haircut in case I got the "wrong" one and they teased me more
3. I spent years trying to convince my mum to let me have a fringe. I finally got one a few years ago and now hate my face without a fringe.
4. I am obsessed with bird, owl and tree motifs (not necessarily all three together)
5. I've just been diagnosed with ADHD and I couldn't be happier
6. my favourite TV show right now is The New Girl with Zooey Deschanel
7. I am in love with Zooey Deschanel and want to either be her when I grow up or marry her
8. most of my current closest friends are people I met on twitter
9. I find it easier to make friends with men than with ladies
10. I talk about sex a lot, I love innuendo
11. I love my iPhone, my iPad and my iPod just a little bit too much (and I'm quite happy inside the walled garden at the moment)
12. I am currently a little bit obsessed with Haloumi Cheese
13. I prefer even numbers to odd ones... except 13. 13 is an awesome number.

I ran out of things that were interesting after number 13 so I had to throw it open to twitter for suggestions! I ended up with a few extras :)


14.  I have bewbs and I quite like them (the first bit was suggested by @londonjustin, the second bit is just an FYI)
15. Ben Pobjie (@benpobjie) is one of my best friends and most favourite people in the whole world (as suggested by the man himself)
16. We have ducks and chickens
17. I watch a lot of stupid reality TV and I love it
18. I bake amazing cupcakes (16, 17 & 18 suggested by @justinbrennan)
19. We live next door to my mum (suggested by @viennah)

Week One... Or Should I Say Week Two Thousand One Hundred and Seventy Nine...

 That's how many weeks I have been alive (give or take a couple of days). Two thousand one hundred and seventy-nine. Yet here I am still fighting the same fights I have always fought. Self-image, self-acceptance, unrelenting standards, imposter syndrome.  Once again I find myself in a body that feels uncomfortable and unhealthy. It crept up on me slowly and suddenly all at the same time. I still barely eat any refined sugar. I turn down the lollies and cakes and doughnuts at work. It's not even a struggle, I no longer enjoy the way sugar makes my body feel. But my old nemesis, potato chips, remains undefeated. I eat potato chips to fill the emptiness in my soul. To feel as miserable physically as I do mentally or emotionally. To get comfort from an association with my childhood. It is the struggle I can't overcome. The war I can't win. So after months of trying on my own to no avail, months of the scales not budging, I have signed up for a healthy eating plan. I'm n...

I don't want to do this anymore

I am so over it right now. Everything feels hard. Everything feels shit. Everything makes me want to cry. I don't want to be a person any more. I don't want to be an anything any more. My children are smart. They get good grades, score well on NAPLAN, their teachers love them. Why then must they continue to do stupid things? I am so sick of a child running to tell me that so-and-so did such-and-such to me, I am sick of them hurting each other, I am sick of them destroying things, I am sick of them whinging, complaining, walking past rubbish on the floor, leaving shit everywhere, pretending they can't see the dog wee on the floor, having rooms that looking like the aftermath of a break and enter. I am sick of washing dishes, of sweeping floors, of the endless amounts of washing and folding and cleaning and tidying and cooking and planning and thinking. I am sick of feeling guilty for not being able to do those things that I should be doing, of feeling guilty that my husband...

now you're just somebody that i used to know

this song by gotye (good thing this is typed or i'd still be stumbling over the pronunciation... goat-ee-ay... gotcha...goat-yee...) is one of my favourites at the moment and is on constant rotation at my house and in my car. the song is about two ex lovers but has gotten me thinking about all those people that were once an intrinsic part of my life, helped me to define who i was and my place in the world and are now just some people that i used to know. we all have them. those people that we thought we would be friends with forever, that we talked to every day, hung out with all the time, people who knew all our in jokes because they helped create them, knew all the stories of our past. then suddenly you wake up one day and realise its been a month since you saw them, then its six months, then you can't remember the last time you saw them. you think about calling them but it feels awkward, then you tell yourself that they could call you if they wanted to. time passes and the...
