Feeling: UP ON ARMS 1. I never realised just how intense the Kiwi accent is. In my exam I directed all to the wall and told them to prep for the handstand. I was met with an entire room of blank faces; the what? “Handstand!” I repeated, annunicating as cleanly as I could. “The headstand?” … More Feeling: UP ON ARMS
Feeling: RAJA 1. This may get a little baffling – there’s a few characters in the mix. Bear (crazy; just Googled that phrase and was astounded – always thought it was “bare”) with me, and I apologise in advance for any confusion. So last night Aussie Lyndal and I went to the first evening festivities … More Feeling: RAJA

Ideals of a sleep in were obliterated with a 5am alarm of clanging cows outside my window, and when resleep evaded I decided the way to go was to lie in bed and watch some Coro. Absolute bliss. So some little wee yarns, observances and threads that … More Feeling: JUST ME
