I am currently on a mission to find the best rack of ribs in Australia. This mission started about a year ago when I was watching a series where a guy travelled to a variety of cities in America to eat all these different fast-food meals. These meals included everything from giant burgers to giant …
A big part of boxing is the footwork and the ability to stay on your toes. I really struggled with this on the first day. It felt as if the arches under my feet were straining but I assumed this was normal for beginners. After about a week of training, my trainer noticed that I …
Seeing as I performed the best in the boar wrestling competition, I was permitted to leave the area first. After climbing back aboard my ship, I was off, sailing the waters around Victoria in order to find the location of our next challenge. The fancy earrings I wore pulled me south, toward the great frozen …
It’s hard for me to delegate tasks. I’m a bit of a control freak and so I try to do everything myself. I just have this notion in my head that I’ll be able to do it better than someone else. This even goes for situations where I clearly can’t do it better than someone …
I just found the strangest thing in my box of cereal. It’s particularly weird because I was just thinking about the good old days where they’d put a toy inside your box of Wheat Biscuits or Chocolate Rice Pops. Back when I was a kid, opening a box of cereal and finding a prize inside …

I may finally be getting a full time job! I’ve been working part time for my dream company for the past three years, but until now there hasn’t been many opportunities for me to progress in my career. I stuck it out because I knew for a fact that this is the company I want …
My family have a holiday house just outside of Mornington that we have visited every summer since I was born. This year will be our twentieth summer spent there, and we are going to throw a big party to celebrate. That’s a blog post for another day though, we haven’t really sorted out any of …
Working as a builder in Underwood has always been a lucrative business. I’m lucky that Underwood residents always want something new built, or have decided to develop existing parts of their property. There are also a lot of housing developments going up, which means more money and more work for me. It’s great. However, to …
It’s true that you don’t appreciate something until it’s gone. Until my car aircon stopped working about a month ago, I had never given it a thought. The air conditioning was just something that came with the car and I hardly considered it to be a luxury or something that made too much impact on …
