  • I MOVED TO AUSTRALIA + Are you feeling settled?

    I recently embarked on my biggest move yet. I moved my life to Sydney in January after having it in the works for a few months, and in my dreams for more than a few years. It finally happened and now I’m here and it honestly feels, well, weird. In a good way. In a…

  • Cntrl A, Cntrl C, Cntrl P

    Select all, copy, paste. That has been the format of most of my days in lockdown. I’ve had no zest to write. And I’m fine with that. I’ve been spending my time reading, working (thankfully), sleeping, looking at shit on the internet and just generally doing what I can. I wanted to write a little…

  • A Bold Move

    I’m 25 and as far as I can remember, ever since I was able to make decisions about my life by myself, someone somewhere has said my choices were ‘ a bold move’ . I used to take this comment on the chin and just think ‘well I’m going to do it anyway but thanks…

  • iPhone’s Featured Photos

    This feature on iPhone where it pulls up 6 random photos from your whole camera roll is a dangerous game. Do I want to relive that hangover selfie I sent my girls group chat from the time I went to Bongos Bingo and split my head open from falling off the bench? Yes. Do I…

  • Hated the Hiatus

    Long time no write 🥴 I kept wanting to, but nothing was coming out and I didn’t want to force it. I was gutted because I felt like as soon as I started to push forward with something I loved, my head had other ideas and I had to take a step back from a…

  • How do you know each other?

    I dread this question sometimes. Lately it feels like my only answer is ‘oh we met through my boyfriend’. Which isn’t a bad thing, I know, but it would nice to be the connection sometimes. I chose to separate myself from the rhythm of school mates –> uni mates –> work mates. I sort of…

  • A Shit Day

    Writing this in quite a raw state of mind so please forgive the potty mouth title. This blog has already been a huge cathartic outlet for the feelings I’ve encountered whilst moving cities. I’ve had countless bouts of loneliness that I just flit over like it’s nothing because in true Arabella from I May Destroy…

  • I just started here last week

    I’ve said this sentence a lot ^ When you move, it’s likely you’ve either got a new job or you need to get one to afford to stay where you have moved to. Sometimes it’s easy to find one, sometimes it’s not. Sometimes you want a new job to just serve a purpose and sometimes…

  • 26, get me a Twix

    I turned twenty-six this month. This was the age I thought I’d have my shit together. I remember being a young teenager and wanting so bad to be 26. It just felt like a probable age that I’d be smashing life in. Not sure what I defined as ‘smashing life’ when I was 13 but…

  • Sistergood👯‍♀️

    I’ve never met a better person than her. S has been everything I’ve ever needed her to be and more, at all the right times. She has also said the things I didn’t want to hear when I needed to hear them the most. She has instilled qualities in me that I know I’ll never…

  • Time With Faces

    As the world continues to spin through this pandemic, for many of us it feels like time has stopped and in the same breath the things we had stopped we have now resumed. Hobbies, rekindling friendships, sending mail instead of a text, or sending a text instead of not sending anything at all. This is…
