My Lover Mother Nature




I love nature more than anything and over the last however long i've really decided to make an effort in getting a bit more natural. Our body is a sponge, we absorb air pollution and all the things we apply to our skin, but whats really in all the chemicals that we can't pronounce....proxycerahydraulacone.....what?!

I think that all these chemicals that we absorb via direct contact / digesting is the reason why kids these days are born with a million different allergies, even I over the past three years have become allergic to metal earrings and lipbalm

so over the past however long i've been getting in touch with my "natural side". I've stopped eating meat (1. because i don't like the taste or texture 2. i don't want to eat what i wouldn't kill myself 3. Animals are my best friends) and meat is exxy anyway, and saturated fat, enough said!


I've almost stopped using all my makeup (apart from Mascara, will never give that up) and for the stuff that i will use i'll be using animal free organic stuff. same goes for the hair, i use organic stuff for it, stopped styling my hair pretty much as well, the hair straightener has been a bit lonely lately.

I want to get into natural body care too, i've found a few alright sounding things to do like:

  •  Coconut Oil as moisturiser  & hair conditioner
  • egg as a hair treatment (ok that creeps me out a bit)
  • using Henna dye
as well as using for loads of blankets instead or turning the heater, air con and electric blanket on. they managed to stay warm a hundred years go, surely we can manage now..


aaaaah im going to bed now, my brain has stopped working!

Chocolate milk and cigarettes



It's the last few days of the holidays and I'm sitting here trying to do assignments but i am so uninspired. I  all of a sudden feel the need to figure out what I'm going to do for the next few years, after i finish the course I'm doing i don't think i want to go into that field. I don't know if i can commit to anything (except love), I wouldn't mind studying photography.

where do i want to move to

Gold coast or Sunshine Coast?
Melbourne? 

where do i want to travel to

Spain?
North Carolina?
(i need suggestions)

......quarter life crisis
