News & Photos

-
Whilst pondering what I would write about next on Life, Love & the Everyday, I just thought I would share my wonderful *cough cough* photography skills with you!
Because I was just a tad bored this morning, I decided to do some photography featuring plants with textile backgrounds.
Since I am here, I will bring you up to speed with a few things!

1. 12 Week Challenge is over in two days! Halle-frickin-ulah!
I did learn a lot about myself though. First and most essentially, I cannot live without chocolate!
Also, I have noticed I no longer feel obligated to stuff my face to the point of nauseousness.
Lastly, exercise is very important even if I don't feel like doing it - I was surprised how I always seemed to have enough energy to expend on that forty minutes.

2. Baby blues are no longer at the forefront of my mind. In fact, they are not there at all!
As soon as it is appropriate, I will tell you why! :P

3. I am obsessed with Autumn right now! I feel especially that this season will bring about big changes in my life and A's. This could probably explain why I am taking lots of pictures of plants, flowers and trees.

4. I am jet-setting next week to Fiji on my first mission trip with one of my best friends, Ally and I cannot wait to share what we are going to be doing with you!

Until then,

M'Bulla!

There Is Something About Chloe...

Life Today I had a terrible epiphany that is really so shameful I will definitely regret saying it at all! I think my writers block is the equivalent of Erectile Dysfunction! I have all kinds of stories in my head and for some reason unknown to me, I am sitting at half-mast and cannot perform! I start writing something that I reckon will be fun and then...well, all of my fictional heroes and heroines are disappointed while I am frantically scrambling to revive the excitement and anticipation for their tales. This is one thing that frustrates me about being a writer - lots of good story lines sitting on my desktop but they come to an abrupt pause mid-sentence. I want to write something so sensational that people will still be talking about years from now, the kind of book they will keep in a special place on their book shelves and read it once or twice a year, or whenever the mood strikes them. Something they will always remember and talk about with their families, friends, strang

Becoming Myself

LIFE  What I love about books is that they are available around the clock - your imagination can absorb words and take you on a journey, pages away from your life. What would life be without J.K Rowling, Kathy Reichs and Jane Austen? Pretty lousy, that's what. Then there are books that make you feel brave, inspired - and I have been reading such a book this week. It's called Becoming Myself by Stasi Eldredge. I have read it a couple of times and loved it - and I have read it again this week - it's about loving yourself, quirks and all - embracing the beauty that is soul and surface. There were three topics Stasi mentioned in her book which really stood out to me. Body Image, Friendships and Mothers. Last Tuesday I weighed in at 99.1. My whole adult life it seems, has been about losing weight. It's my fault. I have eaten in quantity rather than moderation and skipped on the 30-45 minutes of exercise most days and that's on me. Literally. On that score, I lea

Home is where the Heart is

LIFE Today I woke up in my own bed after two and a half weeks in another country. Fiji was just...incredible - I learnt and grew so much during those two weeks. People don't travel to see another country, they travel to see other worlds - like Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy in C.S Lewis's 'The Lion, The Witch & The Wardrobe'. Although there was no wicked ice queen on the other side of my wardrobe, I saw poverty and homelessness amid a culture of giving and happiness. Even now I am trying to process completely what I saw, all I can put it down to is in Fiji, there are two worlds living side by side - the wealthy and poor. The mission God has put on Ally's heart in Fiji is a very important piece of the puzzle to break the cycle of poverty. Some struggling families in Fiji have to make hard, life-altering decisions because they are desperate for a roof over their heads and food for themselves and their families.They turn to thievery, prostitution and a marriage
