I am close to retirement age and I’m having a bit of a crisis about it. I don’t know what my life will be like without a purpose, without a reason to wake up every morning. I don’t love my job, but I definitely don’t hate it, and I’m going to find it very hard …
I can tell that my dad doesn’t like his job. He falls into a deep sadness at the end of every weekend, and an even deeper sadness at the end of a holiday. He refuses to talk about work at home because he doesn’t like to be reminded about it and will only ever go …
When I grow up I want to be a painter. I paint my pictures for my parents all the time and I always bring in my own pictures for show and tell. My teachers have called my pictures artwork which is really cool. In our computer time at school my teachers told me to research …
Over a prolonged period of excessive partying, I have officially ruined my teeth. When I’m at an event I have a bad habit of grinding on my teeth, and as I am quite a social girl, this happens a lot. I have officially grounded some of my back teeth right down to the gum, which …
I just moved from Melbourne to Hobart for work. I know that sounds funny because usually it’d be the other way around, but the company I work for has expanded and just opened an office in Hobart. I am going to be the Managing Director of the Hobart branch. I am extremely happy about it. …

My grandfather recently passed away, which has been devastating for my family. I’d say it’s devastating for me especially, but I guess I don’t know how everyone’s feeling deep down so I probably can’t say that I’ve been the hardest hit. I just miss him so much already. My grandfather and I spent a lot …
My boyfriend and I just moved out together for the first time! We’re obviously so excited about this, especially being the first of our friends to have even moved out of home! We’re going to have our friends over every weekend, as the designated party house for any event we can think of. It would …
I work in hospitality in a really run down building in Melbourne’s west. We’ve been told numerous times by the council to fix issues with the building, including tripping hazards and the state of our bathrooms. I’m not shocked by this in the slightest but apparently our bathrooms are both dangerous and unhygienic, to the …
Alright, day five of Airy the Air Conditioner’s book tour. Here we go. I’m feeling a bit better than I did last night. The negativity from yesterday got me down, but after a good night’s sleep, I think I’m ready for whatever this day can throw at me. Like it or not, I’m a role …
