Showering with Pretty Woman
Today I take a complement into the shower (not for that reason– take off your 50 Shades of Grey goggles please…) You see, shower conversations and I have been friends for a consistent 12 years. Able to indulge in deep breaths of oxygen; I love how the steam prompts your pores to purr and…

An Appeal for Loneliness
It’s 10:53 on a Thursday night. 21/9/2017 I love writing down the date and time. More than a formality installed from school, I think it feels like the human thing to do. Keep time, mark it as special. Make it mean something more than repetitive sounds on a clock; one hand to the next. I am…

Queen B & Girl G
So there we were. Five girls, five cocktails at a table surrounded by plastic shrubbery. It felt like something out of a movie. At the far end of the table was girl G. The one I didn’t want to cast a general look at, let alone have in hitting distance. Unlike the other three, she…

Dating in the Dark
To d a t e is to _ _ _ _ _ _ _? After far too many nights wondering why my friends haven’t had any luck with this popular adult activity, I decided to answer the question myself. I think it’s important first and foremost to start off on the right…

Women Vs Instagram Women
Magazine Question: ‘What Kind of Woman Are You?’ And no, I don’t mean Carrie, Samantha or Ms York. I mean who, among the fabulous women of the world, is closest to the polished woman you’d always hoped to be? Perhaps you and she have met at social events or sometimes she may even wear your new…

Words
To cook veal, we must first beat it tender. To soften and then swallow. With people we are much the same, except society dictates our only weapon of choice are our words. You cannot merely make someone understand how you feel via shaking them, hugging them or slapping their ass. Words must always follow in…

Silence Speaks
Hello dear blog, we haven’t spoken in a while- I’ve been hiding out. Silent, in your exile. I fell into something, I wasn’t sure I could get out. The singing had turned to humming, and before I knew it, I was getting drunk on my own self-doubt. Saturated, in his red wine.…

Creatures that Think in the Dark
Like an epileptic goldfish in a new tank, he paces back and forth. “I’m not use to this room—” he states to himself. Twenty-two sets of eyes all watch; the back and forth kind of hypnotic. It’s easy to understand that people who work in Advertising are always the smartest people in the room. It’s…
