End of an Era


As some of you may know I volunteer for my local council and am apart of the Youth Advisory Committee (YAC). I have been volunteering with them for 6 years and sadly had to retire from my position due to my move.

November was my last meeting and it was a little bittersweet. My final day volunteering was at my local Christmas Pageant.

I joined YAC in October of 2011, My Mum thought it would be a good idea to do an activity outside of school. I put in my application, went through an interview process and was accepted!

Over the 6 years of me being part of the committee I was apart of something amazing, we would put in so many events for the youth in my local area. Some of my favourite events and things about YAC were.

National Youth Week



Campbelltown Christmas Pageant 



The Feeling of Family and Friendship




I started off as one of the youngest people in YAC and ended my time being one of the oldest and longest standing members at the time. I enjoyed my time so much and can't to help out in any way I can when I return home in 2019. I HIGHLY encourage everyone to take the time to volunteer for something at some point in your lives, where that be for your local council, soup kitchen or homeless shelter, It is such a rewarding experience and I made friends that will last me a lifetime whilst there.

Recently I got back from holiday in Sydney and it was so much fun! I got to see so many iconic sights, you can go to my previous post and have a look at some of my pictures from my trip.  Whilst there I ate at a lot of really nice places, one of my favourites was Sweethearts Rooftop Bar. I went on a date here and it was beautiful, I loved the atmosphere and aesthetic. It was partly undercover with some open areas for dancing. Without sound too old, the music was a little loud to have a conversation at, however, we did go on a Saturday night so it may have been different in the middle of the week as it was more club-like the night I went.  Unfortunately, smoking was permitted on the rooftop bar as well, it was only in the open are parts, however, the rooftop is not huge so the smoke made its way over to where I was sitting pretty fast.   When looking at the bar online it said we needed to book, however when we arrived the bartender told us ...

As some of you know, as I seem to talk about it all the time, I have just spend a year in the USA working at Disney World. The exact dates of my being out of Australia are actually December 19 th 2017 to January 17 th 2019. And boy oh boy am I missing home. When this blog post goes live I will have been back in Australia exactly one day. So the list I am making now is everything I miss and am looking forward to seeing again when I get home. The first, and most important is my Cat, Tinker. I miss him so much and have been missing him since about June 2018. My cat and I are very close, he always sits or lays next to me when I am working on my laptop and will sleep on my bed. He is also just cute and fluffy and the more I type the more I miss him. I am also missing my friends. A lot. My Australia friends and I would regularly hang out and do things together, sometimes it would be eating out at a dessert bar or a buffet. Other times it would be going and having a BBQ on...
