I'm a sporadic organisational psychology phd student, full time day dreamer of alternative careers: cafe/bookshop/day spa lifestyle village empire entrepreneur; artist; travel writer; domestic goddess; property developer; fashion designer; retiree; organic farm/bed n breakkie; wife to billionaire heir; buddhist nun. when i'm not entertaining the above in my head, i'm busy navigating through life battling with myself to find eternal happiness armed with a skinny hazelnut flatwhite in my hand, twinkle of passion in my eyes, love in my heart and a barrage of great friends n family by my side.

In a Boffin's Paradise..


i've been so good to avoid the save the children book sale which i drive by everyday to and from uni for the whole week.. but the lure of the collated pages just overwhelmed me.. lots of books, at bargain prices.. what boffin can resist?? so like a addict, i fed my habit.. just to browse i thought to myself, may be one or two books coz it's half price..

as i emerged 2 hrs later.. i'm a bag of books heavier and 7 bucks lighter!!! my bounty include: heaps of cooking books (including le cordon bleu ones!!), more cooking magazines, a whole pack of 4 buddhist chanting CDs still in sealed wrapping, lonely planet guide on turkey and argentina, illustrated garden doctor, one fay weldon novel, one jeffery archer novel, book on crepes for my crepe loving big mammal (aka bf), and three ounces of deliriously happy..

self discipline or self restraint obviously isn't one of my strengths.. well lets just say i tried that's why there's only ONE bag..

but who cares, i thought, as i fall happily asleep hugging my reap.. it's for charity after all..
