Is that you?

There is a bitter sweet sickness to consistency

The bitterness of no matter how many clothes you buy, places you go, people you see, haircuts you get... you are still, in fact, within the shell of the person you were before all these desperate attempts to break free. Thus, are we still the same people we were at birth? Never changing? Never moving forward?

These questions draw immediate attention to the sweet side of all considered aspects. We are who we were meant to be, we are who we were made to be... a cluster of lost and confused beings searching for a reason and thus, we are more ourselves during times when we feel most lost then we have ever been.

Who are you really? You are you, and nothing will change that.

You are not something that is in need of fixing, you are distinctively different to every other person around you and be thankful for that. As no matter who you are trying to be like, or who is trying to be you, you have always been, and will always be, the same entity and that makes being yourself more worthwhile than ever.

So... I'm not going to lie, I am a bit of an Ebay addict... all thanks to the beautiful but ever so influential Erin Murphy...

But my favourite little website at the moment, that I actually can't get enough of... if Etsy

It is similar to Ebay yes, however the entire site is based around handmade cute little goodies, from jewelry to furniture, which are not doing wonders for the bank account

My newbie of...well...this week so far ;) is this vintage scrabble tile pendant, and someone special will be getting a similar one but they can find out when it arrives!

mmm yes... in love ♥


















so... ENTER WITH CAUTION: http://www.etsy.com/

Spring.

New life, new love, Melbourne Zoo's lucky little charm...

must be big now, these photos are from last year.
Just wanted to draw attention to the fact that spring is on the horizon.



I have a confession for you, I have an obsession with elephants... and my memory is as good as one.










...Too Much...?








Spring; happiness,

Success

Success can be measured in many different ways

It is a common misconception that success is the product of money and power

However...

What is a life without people to trust? Accomplishments of the heart that do not equate to monetary values? Freedom of will and beauty of ones soul?

Musicians do not choose to be musicians for the money, they do it because it is where they feel safest and it is what connects them more strongly to their universe.

...and this, I believe, brings us a greater success.










... in saying that however I would feel pretty accomplished with one of these hanging around my neck...


















come on a girl can dream about Tiffany can't she?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
...but really...if you haven't yet checked out their new statement range...where have you been?

Muse





They have been educating and re-educating me for years, but it was at Big Day Out 2010 where my respect for Muse really skyrocketed. There are so many layers to this UK band, from their incredible songwriting abilities to their pristine stage performance... this band has it all









So.....as it seems that they will be touring Australia again...I COULD essentially see them in Brisbane, but what would be the point in that when this is a reason and a half to take a trip to melbourne to visit the family??
