Rather than dwell on the crapness of things, I’m just going to focus my time and energy on the good shit. I do believe in self fulfilling prophecies so the more I think about the crap that is happening, the more it will happen. I watched a Tony Robbinson clip that my trainer sent to me and it’s all about how if you want something and do everything in your power to make it happen, chances are it will work, when it works you feel all chuffed and believe you can do stuff and it just becomes this cycle of positive action.
It’s not even airy, fairy hippy bullshit – If you think you can pass an exam and study heaps and then you do pass, you think “Fuck yeah, that was awesome! I’m gonna go study more, I can totally do this”. If you don’t really think you can, you don’t really study to hard because it all feels pointless and then you fail. You assume you are crap at everything because you fail and never bother trying stuff again. I know it happens, I’ve lived it for years. Now, I’m going to create a positive cycle and manifest great things, I don’t want mediocrity anymore.
I saw a t-shirt the other day that said “One day they’ll make a movie about me”. Remember those words, kittens.

have you been watching The Secret? sheesh!
Great jeans and a good hair day is definitely something to celebrate!!
And coconut rough, mmmm yum!
Oh how I miss good hair days.
You sound very “chipper” which is great to see- and I am now “chipper” since I could throw that word in there.
I have been to Napier (I think?) along time ago- I really should get back to NZ, haven`t been since I was about 16.
yay =) i’m very happy for you.
Just unlurking to say Yay Napier! My hometown so of course I highly recommend it
That said I am jumping the ditch in a couple of weeks…
Ooooh Africa on the radio?? You always know it’s a good day when you are lucky enough to hear a bitta Toto : )
Oooh I have to post a pic of my new moneybox! Is pretty much the opposite of the t-shirt you saw
Mars, no Secret. Still have yet to see it, I well and truly missed that boat.
Kass, so true! Good jeans are hard to find.
Lulu, your hair always looks awesome! Chipper is a great word, I am so pleased you used it twice!
Best, xx
LadyPenelope, Napier is so amazing, how lucky you are to live there! Enjoy your jump, where in Oz are you moving??
Sarah, you’re telling me! It’s kinda like seeing an Extreme video clip on MTV/VH1. It’s only ever happened once, but it was a great day.
JT, YAY! I love cute moneyboxes!!
