Vegan Pizza

I was naive and lonely you would say. I was still getting over a boy I had briefly seen during covid. Until **Peter** came along. He brushed his way into my life within a blink of an eye.

And now we are here, I am sitting here in my room writing a blog post at 10pm at night, googling on the internet how to get over a boy I never even dated.

He was charming, he was calm and his voice soothing to the soul. James dean like with that smile and those dimples. I fell hard, really hard.

However I had rose coloured glasses on, he wasn't that great at all. He was toxic, narcissistic and arrogant and he had taken advantage of my insecurities.

The first date we had was lovely, we went to a vegan pizza restaurant. I am vegetarian if you did not already know. He did his research and found this restaurant in a quirky little up and coming town in Brisbane called West End. Reminds me a little bit of North side of Melbourne, like it's the little cousin or something.

We went there had pizza and red wine my favourite and laughed and chatted for hours and went back to his.

And that was the second mistake going back to his. Anyway's he was the first person I had been home with in almost a year and a half.

Oh how I regret that so much.

Love A xox

Boys in suits 

I met this boy at work- let's say his name is Peter, because that is probably the most common name known to man kind. He was in my team, to be exact (not ideal). I had met him online previously to meeting him in real life. We flirted, we chatted and I knew from that moment this was not a good idea. I head into work the next day, I see him walk over, well hobble over.

He had injured his foot from football. It was kind of cute to be honest- to meet this charming boy in such a fragile state. Anyways, back to the story he looked up and briefly smiled and said hello in a modest and reserved way. I smiled.

I just had started within this company and was new to the corporate world. It was scary to be honest. I felt like I did not fit in.

Back to the story, we went out for lunch as a team and I mentioned to him "has anyone ever told you, you look like Harry Styles?".

There we have it- that was the first mistake. His ego was boosted almost immediately.

This was the start of an on going situational ship that recently just ended after 7 months because I had enough.... as you would say.

Love A

Black Hole

Here's the thing, no one ever tell's you or prepare's you for dating in the real world. I wouldn't even be able to count the amount of times, someone has said "once you stop looking, you will find love."

Well here is the thing... I have stopped looking for the past two years and somehow, I have found myself deep within the internet black hole on a Tuesday night, feeling 16 again. There is something so satisfying of writing with no purpose. For me personally, I wanted to be able to create a relatable space for those navigating the world around them in these unprecedented times.

I feel like we all as a society have lost two years of our lives that we will never be able to reverse and in that we all have grown, moved states, broken up with partners, changed careers and or are travelling the world.

I decided to pack up and leave. I left all I knew back home and moved states indefinitely. I will go into more detail on another post to explain my life story.

However, welcome to my safe page, a page that will be dedicated to my everyday life, one that will document the highs and lows, and one that is filled with moments of accomplishments and defeats.

I am like everyone else, lost in this world, still working out where I head next. Ideally this page will be dedicated to those twenty something year olds who are sitting here at night twiddling their thumbs thinking what the fuck do I do next?
