My whole life my mother has explained to me that being Aboriginal is an amazing thing. She use to tell me the Dreamtime stories as I was younger and they were so powerful such creative moral inside each and every story.

Proud of my Dreamtime roots
January 29th, 2013To get inked or not?
January 22nd, 2013If people knew me they would think I was very hypocritical to debate about tattoos, I have a few but I have friends who have a lot more, we love our ink and do not regret any of them just like all the websites and facebook sites say, or do we? Two of my friends [...]
New year, new you?
January 15th, 20133…2….1…HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! We all know the sound of the iconic new year’s countdown that greets us as ten seconds to midnight on December 31st every year.

Hitting the RESET button
January 10th, 2013Sometimes it takes almost falling over to realise, but we tend to be on overdrive a lot of the time. Our society tends to value people who keep going and going – keep doing more and achieving more – all the time. And while that’s great at times, it’s almost impossible to maintain (unless you’re [...]
How to Make Every Meal Taste Better
January 3rd, 2013I recently wrote a blog post on healthy eating, but I realised I left out something important. I talked about what to eat, but I didn’t mention anything about how to eat.

But what happens when you listen to both sides and still don’t know which one is right? As a teenager there is never a shortage of [...]
Ways to pull yourself out of a slump!
December 7th, 2012To bring yourself up when feeling down is much easier said than done. However, it is vital to your health and happiness that you do. Feeling sad, bored, and blah about life accomplishes nothing and makes you miserable in the process. It is a waste of your precious life! I too have been stuck in [...]
What defines beauty?
December 6th, 2012It’s a word we use almost every day to compare ourselves to others, judge others and to make a choice over which product to try based on its better-looking packaging. However, not one of us knows exactly what “beauty” or “being beautiful” is. Why then do we aim to be something we do not know? [...]
