My sister’s home

I come from quite a big family consisting of myself and four other siblings. Granted, my parents weren’t initially planning to have this many children. Myself and my eldest brother were around first.

The Bathroom Betrayal

‘I still don’t understand why we have to do this,’ Harold grumbled from the bathroom doorway, still clutching his uneaten lettuce sandwich. ‘Didn’t you have a fall in here?’ Charlie asked, brandishing a measuring tape and looking confused. ‘Like, a really bad?’ Harold narrowed his eyes. ‘Yes.

The cover up

Has anyone else ever gotten a really dumb, ugly, or stupid tattoo that they regret? Perhaps it’s the result of a spur of a moment decision, a moment of rebellion, or visiting a tattoo artist that just isn’t all that good. I’ve been in all three of those situations. About eleven years ago I was

Muay Thai Phase

I’m not ashamed to say that I’ve gone through my fair share of phases. I’ve been extremely into the heavy metal scene, I’ve dabbled in teaching my dog to run agility courses, and I’ve even become a qualified Muay Thai competitor. I’m going to be honest, of my phases, that’s the one I’m most embarrassed
