And where have you been?

Posted in on Student Politics, on me, on my family, on my thesis, on university, on work on March 6, 2010 | Leave a Comment »

So, it’s been a while since I last blogged, and I want to apologise for that. I have about 10 things to blog about, and they’re sitting in a list on my desk. I don’t even know where to begin, but I thought I’d do a shout-out to Cory who emailed me about [...]

Christmas. The girl you got pregnant 2015 years ago who is still bitching today

Posted in on Dan, on me, on my family, on my friends on December 31, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

I figured that since everyone else was doing one (well, Yani and Sunshine, but they’re everyone) so will I.
Christmas is that time of year I’d rather not have. Shops are packed, it’s hot, my car rego is due, it’s hot, presents are expensive, not to mention that it’s hot. We also do a [...]

Understanding my Parents’ position

Posted in on my family, on the government on November 10, 2009 | 1 Comment »

Many people in Australia are aware of the fight going on with the 71 refugees and the Oceanic Viking. A terrible tale of the inactivity of our government, the inherent racism of the population in so many cases, and the lack of suitable welcoming strategies.
With this in mind, I received this from my Father [...]

Treasures from my Grandmother

Posted in on literature, on my family on November 9, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

I love going to visit my maternal grandmother, we always have a great time, chatting about a range of things from history to politics, both on an international level (such as the Spanish Civil War), and in terms of our family (such as her daft Aunt Nancy).
Recently, though, she’s moving further with the “getting rid [...]

Meeting MY Family

Posted in on Dan, on coming out and moving out, on my family on April 6, 2009 | 1 Comment »

Despite the arguments with my parents, I still want Dan to meet my family, so when I was due to take something over to Grandma’s yesterday, I put on my red riding hood, packed my picnic basket, and carefully got Dan in the passenger seat.

Yes, that’s right… I introduced Dan to my Grandmother.
And it went [...]

At my wits end

Posted in on coming out and moving out, on living out of home, on me, on my family on April 2, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

I’ve perhaps not been the best son of late, but given how my parents have been treating me, I don’t think they’ve been pulling their weight either.
I’m not happy. I am upset, and angry, and exhausted from all of this, and I think Dan could do without another night of me on the verge [...]

Weird Feelings

Posted in on my family on March 9, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

I’ve been having some odd feelings the last few times I’ve gone home. No, it’s not just the passive-aggressive stance of my parents or anything like that. It’s the fact that, a little while ago, Mum told me what she’s done with Poppie and Uncle At. See, they’ve both been cremated, and [...]

Updates!

Posted in in pictures, on Dan, on homosexuality, on me, on my family, on religion, on the daily grind on February 25, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

It’s been a little while since I blogged due to EXTREME busy-ness. Before you think I’ve gone mad, no, I haven’t started doing work for my PhD… that would imply some path towards finishing, and we all know that can’t happen. No, it’s been more a case of things to be done, places [...]

Keepin’ it real

Posted in on Dan, on coming out and moving out, on indecisiveness & depression, on me, on my family, on nothing in particular, on university on January 29, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

I’ve been busy these past few days, so I thought I’d do a mass update post! Yay!
The Party
I do love a good party, and usually I just go along to them and play host while the actual host sits and chats. This time, it was my turn to actually host, and now that I [...]

Que?

Posted in on coming out and moving out, on indecisiveness & depression, on me, on my family on January 25, 2009 | Leave a Comment »

No doubt if you have been following my blog for the past few weeks, you’ve seen that I’ve moved out and it’s been quite stressful for me. For most people, moving is stressful as they negotiate between getting out of their old place, getting access to their new place, and the transition between the [...]
