Eight Guilty Pleasures

Ahh, another lazy day in my pj's. I thought I'd pass the time with writing a list of the eight things that make me the most happy.

1. Photography. What I would do without a camera.. Apart from writing, photography helps me tell stories.


2. Music is very important in my life. Writing songs and singing for people makes me feel amazing. I love sharing my talents. Music is how I express myself.



3. Travelling has become a recent passion of mine since my return from Indonesia. Seeing others cultures and how different they are from mine really inspired me to travel a lot more.




4. Make Up has always been a passion of mine. Being able to experiment with different colors and textures is intriguing. I also have a natural 'nack' of being able to apply and creature extreme looks that flatter the face.


5. Performing since I was 3 has obviously had a major impact on my self confidence. I love being on stage and becoming other people, whilst sharing my talents to major audiences.


6. Malea is my 1 year old Labrador puppy and is easily my best friend. She came to me when I was going through an extremely difficult time in my life and has changed my outlook on life in ways that I cannot accurately explain.



7. Italian food is delicious!


8. Reading is great for me to get out of my own body and become part of someone else's imagination.




So there you go, I hope you learnt a little about me that you didn't already know! Here's something to think about before you go..
 
“We plan our lives according to a dream that came to us in our childhood, and we find that life alters our plans. And yet, at the end, from a rare height, we also see that our dream was our fate. It's just that providence had other ideas as to how we would get there. Destiny plans a different route, or turns the dream around, as if it were a riddle, and fulfills the dream in ways we couldn't have expected.”
