International Coffee Day 01-10-2022

 Personally, I didn't celebrate International Coffee Day this year because I didn't realize it was an actual thing until half of the day was over. Believe me, if I had known, I would have had some extra coffee to celebrate! 

Recently, because of the medication I have been on by my psychiatrist, I get tired in the middle of the day. When I drink coffee, I become very happy and perky. But the thing is, I need to find these things even when I don't have coffee. I find it really hard to find the motivation to do things without having coffee. 

What is coffee to me? Well, firstly, it is one of my favourite beverages. Two, as I have explained before, it makes me very happy. I use it to be social (too often in one week). I would spend about $42 a week on takeaway coffee. 

One day I hope to get a coffee machine to practice my barista skills. I usually use the So Good Barista Almond milk for my coffee at the moment. I am an artist, so I can't say that I have done any coffee-inspired artwork, but this might be something I could look into in the future.

And if you are wondering what my go-to coffee is,... I am an iced latte kind of girl; one sugar, please! 

And a little insight on some of the best coffee spots on the southern Gold Coast/Northern NSW, you'll never be disappointed at Nook Espresso, Cubby Bakehouse and Zarraffas! Some other partially coffee-orientated places you might like to visit are Oh my Waffle and Guilty Cafe. 

On that note, I need to get decaf with hot chocolate after having three today!

Happy International Coffee Day! 

Yours truly,

Your Coffee Lover

Guiding light of Angela's voice

 Angela and I had a verbal fight, but now our future is back to being bright. You may ask what we fought over; the answer is our friendship. I've recently worked on the sequel to the Angela and Murray story, 'What Happened to Katheryn. This story currently has 510 words, without little birds. Recently as of the 24th of January 2023, I had the privilege of being accompanied by Angela and Anika to my psychology. You might wonder what is wrong with me? I have some things going on now, although I prefer not to always show it. When I got the privilege of having Angela accompany me to Psychology, my heart was filled with glee! There are a few reasons this could be; one is that she was previously able to keep my mental health afloat, just like I was in a boat. Why does this fill me with glee? Well, you see, she promised me that she would be there when I was a scare. Angela's voice is like most, although it can sound slightly moist; 6 years ago today, I was finishing a holiday with

I finally got to Sydney! (Details of my trip)

Hello everybody! I am so happy to be FINALLY writing this post. I have been waiting four long years to make this trip to Sydney, and I finally did it! On Friday the 6th of September 2019, myself and two of my carers (Karen and Julia), started our journey to Newcastle (Stop one of my holiday) at 6am in the morning. We stopped a brief rest in Coffs Harbour, approximately four hours from home, and then continued on our way to Newcastle. We arrived in Newcastle somewhere between 2:30pm and 3:00pm (i'm not entirely sure what the actual time was). We checked in at the Ibis Newcastle, and made our way to our room. Once opening the door we realised that there was only one room for all three of us to sleep in. We then checked out the disabled amenities, which was hilariously bigger than the room we would be sleeping in. Which isn't a bad thing, just something funny to note. We found our way to a little Italian restaurant where we had dinner. I had some delicious Spaghetti Bolognes

Preparation for my 2019 Sydney trip

The idea of travelling to Sydney on holiday first came up as an idea, back in 2015 while I was on holiday in Toowoomba with Angela and Tegan. We began looking at the costs that would be associated with two different options. Option one was to fly to Sydney and then hire a disabled accessible car. Option two was to drive to Sydney. (Which, in the end was the better option). However, many things had changed in the time between inital discussion and actually getting everything organised.  I then had to make the decision of who would accompany me to Sydney. (The staff that were originally going to be coming with me, unfortunately no longer work with me). Originally I believed it would be Julia and Angela, but Angela was not able to accompany me, due to having been travelling around the world for a few months! So the two people I had with me on my trip were Julia and Karen (as stated in my main Sydney blog post). Tegan sat down and mapped out all of our travel on google maps and we s
