Yes, life is worth living when you have a disability for multiple reasons  Firstly, we are all unique in different ways. But people with disabilities usually don't get as many opportunities to excel as an able-bodied person would. For example, some of us haven't even experienced proper relationships, which, at the age of 32, you could say is a little bit behind the eight ball. But for me, this will change somewhere in the future. I am not sure exactly where or when but, I have just hooked up with another sexologist by the name of Casey, and, she is teaching me about relationships. And that I am very open to discussing any subject. The subjects we discuss can be very personal.  However, not all experiences that disabled people have are like this. We often have to wait for our opportunities to come to us rather than seeking them out. My advice to you is to try something different. And if you don't like it, you don't have to go back! Unless someone close to you persuades y...

 Hiya to my Readers, Today we found ourselves with the same people mentioned in the previous blog, but by this time, in accordance with the blog's title, it's now 7:30pm! To my surprise, Brisbane Entertainment Centre had an MLAK toilet. To your average person, these toilets may not seem like much, but to a disabled person, they are the Rolls-Royce of toilets. In any case, that was not the main event of the evening.  We arrived at Ricky Martin's concert at around 6pm. But before that, we actually went to Motto, a Japanese Restaurant in Westfield Chermside Shopping Centre. I had some gyozas, and I know this is very silly of me, but I cannot remember what my carers had eaten. Skipping back to Ricky Martin, I do not know who his support act was because it wasn't the one on the ticket. The original artist was meant to be Rita Ora, but we were advised she would not be coming due to her own schedule of events. As soon as Ricky Martin started singing, Sofia erupted into song. A...

 Hello again, readers! This adventure finds us on one mammoth day out of the house. Firstly, Wiesia and I left the house around 8 o'clock to pick up Sofia by 8:30am. And we made our way to Brisbane for the first, but not the last, performance of the day.  So, first, we found ourselves at the Redland Performing Arts Centre, where I was elated to learn we could get tickets to The Lost Balloon. It was a masked theatre performance, meaning there were no spoken words. Everything was done through movement, and it was very uplifting to watch. Another reason I went to see The Lost Balloon was that our Blue Roo director, Clint Bolster, was performing in it, and I wanted to support him in some small way. I was actually amazed that I could still get tickets, considering how late in the game I purchased them. In any case, I was so excited to get my hands on tickets, and once I did, I knew it was going to be a hectic day. Unfortunately, I didn't get to catch a glimpse of Clint before or af...

 It has been a while my readers!  In this blog you will find artistic flare but beware it didn't come cheap. Our adventure started at 4:30pm when Alice turned up in her version of the big red car. Shortly after Alice's swift arrival, we got bucled in to the Volkswagen and off we went with Julia along for the ride as well. Upon our arrival to our destination of Brisbane Entertainment Centre, the first thing I did was buy a program.  After snatching up a program, we were ushered to our seats where we were to watch feet for the next hour and a half with a 20min interval. But in hindsight, it was a very special show because it was choregraphed by Micheal Flatley. I initially thought he would be in the show but alas he didn't make a surprise physical appearance.  He was however, featured in a video that was partway through the performance. The video introduced us to how he started to become the dancer that he is today.  Now I will raddle off a few things that you wil...
