ESCAPING
When things go bad, I tend to escape. I immerse myself in my own little make believe world and just write. I’ve always said that I write better when I’m sad/depressed and I guess that’s really true. My stories have mostly been escapist and honestly I don’t care. It’s what keeps me sane. It’s what keeps me from giving up. It’s what gives me hope.
It’s nice to play “God” in your own little world. It’s nice to create a world where you connect with people, even if they’re just characters you made up. It’s nice to weave these imaginary people’s lives. It’s nice to create some drama and problems and yet somehow know how things will work out.
I guess that’s why I like writing. I like being in control. I like knowing that things will get better and that everything will be fine. I like putting my characters in situations that I know would never happen to me. Funny how I benefit so much from my writing. As cynical and depressed as I may sound, I guess deep in my heart I still believe.
And that is why I love writing so much.

The hot nights
Everything is gonna be alright
In the summertime
Baby in the summertime"
The Mt. Maunganui outing kicked-off my Summer and even though it was just a day trip, I still had heaps of fun!
Jess, Steph, Lichelle, Dennis, and Danica
Look closely at the photo and you can see that I'm wearing a black singlet paired with (though you can't see it there) white shorts. I planned on dipping my feet, walking around the water, and feeling the sand on my toes but someone *yesit'syoudennis* tackled me and pulled me until I was submerged in water. I managed to get up but I was soaking wet already so what the hell right? Might as well enjoy the water.
And enjoy I did.
I haven't gone to the beach in years and I missed it so bad! We swam until around eight in the evening, I think? Went to Wendy's for dinner, and had so much fun on the car ride back home. Lichelle's car is the "Car of Truths" apparently, and that's when it all started. . . *blushes*
I feel as though this was ages ago instead of merely months ago! But yeah, looking at the photos did "take me back to the sweet times".
Credits to Lichelle for the photos!

I know, I know. It’s wrong and it’s not good, but I’ve always had low tolerance for pain and shaving seemed like the only option then. As I grew older though (Okay fine, this happened last week), I realized that I need to grow some balls and treat my eyebrows with some respect.
I’m happy to report that my eyebrows are no longer virgins. They’ve experienced pain now, and survived! They’ve been plucked and groomed to perfection thanks to my friend Suzanne. Now shaving is a thing of the past!
It happened last Friday night, in my brightly lit bathroom. I tried to immerse myself in conversation with Suz to distract me from the pain. She even complimented me on my “nice eyebrows” (another trick to distract from the pain!) It worked. Well, sorta. I still winced and let out a couple of yelps from time to time, but hey, if this is the price of beauty, then so be it.
Now I feel like a transformed woman. I know look like a decent, civilized human being! I don’t look like a monkey anymore, said my mum and dad. (No offense to the monkeys. You guys are beautiful creatures in your own way!)

My grandpa looks dashing too! I absolutely adore this photo! I love the certain oldness to it, I love how my granparents look good together, and everything about it just screams loveliness! I found this photo at my uncle's facebook, by the way! Thank goodness for the digital age!
Cheers to grandmum and grandpa in heaven!
