Do you ever sit on the train ride home and think to yourself, “Gee, I’m 90% sure of where I parked the car. Unless that spot was yesterday…” and then, “I can barely remember what I did this morning, let alone last week’s breakfast, or choice of pajamas. WHERE DO ALL THE POINTLESS MEMORIES GO?” … Continue reading

Pig Soup
“I’ll have the soup,” a customer told me as I scribbled down his order on a piece of note paper. If only I knew the events that were about to unfold. There are all sorts of knick knacks scattered around the cafe were I work. A key chain from Vietnam, a mini double-decker tour bus … Continue reading
This Morning Takes A Turn For The Weird
I just found a paper clip in my hair while I was showering. AN ACTUAL PAPER CLIP. Alyssa, this is a new low, even for you. *Internet shakes its collective head in pity* I honestly have no idea how it got there. It could have been there the whole night for all I know. Maybe … Continue reading
When I Was 5, I Knew All My Colours.
For the past few hours I’ve been watching old home videos, which is, quite simply, the most hilarious activity. Who wouldn’t want to see tiny versions of themselves, walking around in atrociously bright and coordinated outfits, saying funny things in high-pitched voices? Who wouldn’t want to see their parents looking exactly the same except with … Continue reading
Who Am I? Do I Live Here?
1) I have this unfortunately bad habit of forgetting everything I have done over a week gone by immediately as someone asks me the question, “So, what have you been up to this week?” I’m like a goldfish that way. Or Dory with short-term memory loss. It’s like even a hint of interest in what … Continue reading
The Un-bloggable Wednesday
The only thing I have to say about today so far is how utterly unoriginal it is. I thought a shower would clear my mind and maybe I’d get an idea, or perhaps some unplanned incident with a spider might give me a story, but nope. All I’ve done today is watch YouTube videos, tweet incessantly and … Continue reading
Alyssa at Six: My Fantastically Short-lived Attempt at Diary Keeping
I was randomly perusing blogs today and I came across this post by Jazz in which she shared some old diary entries. It made me smile a lot and got me thinking about myself and my own, barely used, and might I add, pink, ‘Magical Fairy Diary’. Fairies were my thing ever since I got my hands … Continue reading
How To Tell You’re a Fan
Just FYI: This post comes from my Media blogging from this week (more Uni work! We’re learning about fans though, how cool!) and I thought maybe, possibly some of you might enjoy reading it too. 🙂 We all like to deny it, or at least keep it to oursleves until we trust a person enough … Continue reading
Being Awkward
So I’m a totally incompetent human being. Like totally. I will experience an awkward fumble/fall/stutter on a daily basis. I should get a medal for how uncoordinated I can be. Last week I was buying food from the bakery where I work after my shift, and I handed the guy who was serving me 20 cents rather … Continue reading
