Hey All,
Sorry I didn't blog yesterday, being sick kinda killed my brain and nothing I would've written would've made much sense.
I managed to get the flu on the hottest day in Sydney this year, go figure! Makes absolutely no sense but I feel like I'm starting to get better which is a plus. I went to work today which I probably shouldn't have done, by the end of the day I was pretty worn out. However, I did book my trip to the US today which is super exciting! I'll be there May, June and July next year travelling around a bit and visiting people. Hopefully while I'm there I can shoot a set and hang out with some gorgeous SG and SGH babes!
I'm going to keep today's blog short and just stick to the homework topic for this week wet out by @missy @lyxzen and @rambo
Firstly though I want to talk a little about thanksgiving since it's coming up this Thursday. I know, I know, you're all going to be like 'WTF you're Australian, why are you talking about thanksgiving?' but for the last 5 years I've lived with an American so we have always had a little celebration. This year we don't actually live together so we're going to a restaurant run by some great American chefs and to be honest I can't wait for 3 different kinds of Turkey! All of our thanksgivings at our place involved so much food and varying amounts of people but it was always something that I looked forward to. I miss being in that house living with such a good friend, but we will continue the tradition as long as there is Pumpkin Pie involved haha

What are you thankful for this year?
There are a lot of things I am thankful for this year, but I think the thing I am most thankful for is for the incredible people in my life. Whether it be friends I've had for years or all of you lovely people on here, I have been shown so much love and support from everyone that I feel like my heart is bursting. Everyone on here has been amazing but in particular the support and love shown daily by the SG Australia community restores my faith in humanity, there is so much love there and I'm so thankful that I am now a part of it.
Last year was a real struggle for me and I felt very isolated and alone for a huge amount of it. I had people supporting me but it was never enough for me to get out of the slump that I was in. It has taken a lot of hard work but I'm finally starting dig my way out and I'm beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I am thankful for the fact that I never truly gave up and that I am now in a position where I mostly feel okay.
I am thankful to the universe for bringing so many positive and incredible things into my life over the last few months. The more I am surrounded by good things and great people the better I feel I become as a person.
Anyway, that's all from me today. This has taken me far too long to write because I've been distracted by The Walking Dead *EEK!* while writing it haha
Night all!
Peace, Love and Polka Dots
