My Blog
An insight into my everyday crazy life!
My blog
I know I've been somewhat excessive on Facebook recently, I've been highly motivated with my writing and decided to start posting more news rather than just my blogs, that way in being interactive and more active online. Im taking the time to write this piece with my sincerest and deepest sympathy to the people of Orlando after what had been just a horrendously unforgettable week and if you haven't been watching the news, reading Facebook articles or scrolling through you're Twitter feeds then perhaps you have missed a few things so let me give you the run down. Firstly June 11th, singing sensation Christina grimmie was performing alongside "before you exit" at the plaza, in Orlando and after which she did a free meet and greet / signing. After greeting fans, taking photos, talking, laughing and nothing but a warm atmosphere, a deranged fan by the name of "Kevin James Loibl" had walked up to Christina who greeted him with open arms according to reports, only for him to shoot her, three times! Christina was taken to Orlando regional medical centre in a critical condition and passed away early the following day as a result of the gun shot wounds. Christina was just 22 years old when she was killed. i have been watching her since she was 15 back in 2009 and when I read what happened my heart truly broke. It was confirmed that loibl intended on a mass shooting, he had two guns and a knife and reportedly had been planning on killing many more people, thanks to christina's older brother Marcus Grimmie's heroic actions, tackling loibl to the ground that saved many lives and he is being dubbed a hero for his brave and courageous action in the midst of what must have been a traumatic experience. My heart goes out to her family, friends and obviously the fans, she will be truly missed! Only days later a crazed gunman identified as 29 year old Omar Mateen entered popular Orlando gay nightclub and opened fire, in what has been recorded as the deadliest shooting in American history. There was believed to be around 350 people in the nightclub at the time. 50 people were killed (including the gunman) and a further 50+ people were injured in this tragic and fatal attack! Unfortunately to add to the disasters and trauma, it was also reported a 2 year old little boy, lane graves' was snatched by an alligator and dragged into a lagoon near the Walt Disney world hotel. An O.C. dive team found the young boys body not far from where it was reported he was grabbed! Its been a traumatic and sad week for the people of Orlando and my heart is truly with them as in sure most of the worlds is to. The amount of love and support from people across the world has been more than heart warming and I feel like events such as these just show how resilient and strong people are. That when in need, Humanity can come together and help one another. Because we know that at the end of the day we are one, we may be different but we are the same, we are human and that's all the label we need! Stay Beautiful xo "We are human and thats all the label we need!"

Sitting here in my oversized hoodie and slippers, surrounded by an abundance of blankets and freezing finger tips as I write this glorious piece of literature for you all!
I got to thinking "I really need a nap!" No but in all seriousness today, although cold, was a lot of fun. I decided to busk in spite of the warned rainfall that was due to arrive around 1pm, I luckily missed every time it rained! I tried out a new song and everyone seemed to enjoy it. If you're every in Perth come say "HI" by the way! After busking I got some Krispy kremes, did some shopping and headed home. It's been a long and tiring week actually but I'm doing my best to keep on going and keep myself motivated! Myself and sandrina went out with some new friends, had a few drinks after a last minute change of plans. One minute we were at home in our Pajamas and next we were drinking and dancing the night away. Something I rarely do but was a lot of fun! We also had a small party last week with our friend chloe, we invited our new friends over and got a chance to meet chloes boyfriend Sam! Getting to know people for yourself is really important rather than relying on what you hear. But Jared, Kirsty, Harley and Sam where all a lot of fun to hang out with and definitely made the week more interesting! I'm also very excited to be starting university soon, ill be studying journalism at ECU, I'll definitely keep you all posted on that and I'll be blogging about open day as well. I am currently working on a song that I've been writing and I'm looking for someone who may be able to help put a melody to the lyrics, I'm excited to see how it turns out! Now I've also had a lot of people ask me how I've managed to get past the struggles of depression and anxiety, truth be told I haven't, but things like Uni and busking are what keeps me motivated and keeps me pushing and striving to be better. I'm very thankful to have a group of wonderful friends who support me in everything I do and most importantly who I am! When you find people like that, you must hold onto them because they will be the uplifters of your life, the ones who push you more than you realise. Safe to say I'm not keen for winter though, except the fashion. I prefer warm weather over cold! After this brief little update I'm going to go watch a movie and attempt to have an early night so I get some decent sleep haha :) Stay Beautiful xx |
