Oh Paris (ParEE), how I love thee.
Well. As some of you know, I was a little homesick the other day. Working on 3hours sleep can do that to you. But really, after spending the whole day trekking around Paris, seeing all you can see, it kind of gets to be like “Homesick-what?”.
I saw everything, friends. Arch De Triumph. Eiffel Tower. Napolean’s Tomb. Notre Dame. The Louvre. And all of Paris in between. First...
Day 03 - Your Parents Day
Well, what can I say? This insanity didn’t just appear over night.
Cheryl (Mother) is a nut case. But then all the best people are. She likes to shock me. This can involve a many number of things, the most popular of which is asking Extremely Awkward Questions when I have no way of escaping them (e.g. In the car). She gets paranoid about anything, really. Before leaving for myself, she told...
Day 02 - Your first love day
I realise it is the same day for me, but technically it’s a new day in Australia, and I’ve got some time to kill…
So the day 02 topic is a bit awkward, isn’t it… but sharing is caring, yeah?
I won’t say much. Only that I learnt a lot from my “first love”. And since then, I’ve learnt that it wasn’t as Real as Love can be.
I know what it means now. Not just the definition. Not just the nice...

Liesel left today. Wot a bitch. How dare she leave me! Now I am truly on my own in the mother country. How did that happen??? (I will miss you biggest sister).
Basically did nothing today. Had brunch with la lez. Said goodbye. (HATE that word! “Goodbye”. WHO DOES IT THINK IT IS???? Bastard…)
Hung about in Russell Square Park writing postcard. posted said postcards. Checked...
Day 01 - Introduce Day
I am Bronwyn. But most people call me Bron (if they know what’s good for them).
I’m not really a threatening person… I just like to pretend.
I like to pretend a lot of things. Like that I am a grown up and can fly overseas by myself and live overseas by myself, and just generally BE by myself. But usually, I just learn things as I go. Think I’m doing pretty well so far.
I am 20 years old. Will...
I want to do this too...

Camden Markets Are Amazing
Seriously, they’re awesome.
Camden Markets - where the Alternative set come to shop and get tattoos. Today was really nice weather - quite a sunny day. I actually got a bit of a tan, which is good, because there are English people here who are more tan than I am. Although I guess I’ve always glown in the dark… according to some (one) I have skin like a moonbeam, so I can do with...
London - The Early Days.
London - The Early Days.
Landing in London was an experience…
I was feeling like death, but again, strangely accomplished. I realised that flying by myself was one of the single-most terrifying things I had ever done in my life, and it hadn’t even registered until it was over.
I guess this whole thing is going to be a little scary… Does being brave mean being afraid of something but still doing...
This world is incredible...
Written while in Hong Kong airport…
Arriving in Hong Kong was accompanied by a strange sense of accomplishment. As hard as I thought it was going to be - and believe me, it was hard - I had survived. A little rough around the edges, but none the worse for wear.
Hong Kong weather is crazy and beautiful. 26 degrees at 5 o’clock in the morning. The blue skies I can see through the...
Dammit!
God dammit, Tumblr!
I was just entertaining people and you FAILED on me.
Will try to Tumble again tomorrow. Hogging the computer a little. Wups!
Love you all, xoxox
“Mon dieu! Il ya une chèvre coincé dans l’arbre!”
Love.
Take, O take those lips away, That so sweetly were forsworn; And those eyes, the break of day, Lights that do mislead the morn: But my kisses bring again, bring again, Seals of love, but seal’d in vain, seal’d in vain.
— William Shakespeare
And now, for some classics...
“Love Sonnet”
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I love thee to the depth and breadth and height My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight For the ends of Being and ideal Grace. I love thee to the level of everyday’s Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light. I love thee freely, as men strive for Right; I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise. I love thee with the...
