Hi 🙂 🙂
Yay just submitted my assignments 😀 😀 So happy to have completed them.
I basically just studied a lot today, getting course work done and out of the way since I start my new job tomorrow.
I am so excited! It will be interesting to see the company. The area looks really nice (I looked on Google maps haha).
I hope you have had a great weekend. I am honestly looking forward to the long weekend this month for Easter. I just want to spend one day relaxing and catch up on some tv and anime shows.
Ok, I need to prepare my things for my big day tomorrow. Thank you so much for reading. Have a great day!

The earth is full of beautiful life, not just people, but also nature.
Water, trees, plants, animals, birds, sea creatures, and so on, are each breathtaking to witness. When we take time to step outside and go for a walk, we automatically feel so much better, as we inhale the fresh air, and get our bodies moving.
Nature gives so much, and does not expect anything in return. Trees keep the air fresh and healthy for us. Animals can remind us that there is more to life than going to work, watching tv, and basically living in a regular daily life cycle bubble.
Feel alive – When you take off your shoes and step onto grass it feels so good. There is something calming about being surrounded by greenery. Especially when you lay out on the grass and watch the clouds go by. Those moments are when you feel alive…

Hi 🙂 🙂
Late post today ❤ ❤ I have been busy completing assignments and course work.
Today was a nice sunny day in Sydney. Not too hot or too cold, lovely weather.
I have a lot of assignments to complete every week until the end of May. I am looking forward to getting them completed then having a break from study until August (when my second semester starts).
It has been quite stressful being short with time and having a lot more course work than expected. Plus my studies piled up a little since I went to visit family in New Zealand (I have a bit of course work to catch up on, hopefully I can get it all up-to-date by next weekend).
Today I am reblogging a post on meditation. Meditation is so important for me to do daily. It helps reduce my stress and keeps me sane lol.
Ok, I will now get back to completing my assignments. Thank you so much for reading. Have a great day!

Everyone stresses. Some more than others.
There is good stress – in small doses it can motivate you to do what you need to do. Then there is bad stress – where you can end up getting pains in your body, feel depressed, and feel like everything is out of control.
There are many ways that you can overcome bad stress – or better yet, prevent it. A wonderful way to prevent stress is to learn how to meditate.
Meditation is easy for some, and hard for others. Anyone can do it within time – it just takes patience and practice. A good way to start is by lying down with your eyes closed, and listen to some music (nature music is awesome – such as thunder, waterfalls, and rain is one that I find the best to meditate to). Try it for 1 minute, then 2 minutes, and…

Hi 🙂 🙂
I just got back to Australia today and I am super tired from travelling.
So happy to be home though. I have a lot to sort out, as I start my new job next week on Monday, and need to work my studies and everything else around work.
I hope you have had a great week so far. Ok, I am way too sleepy. Going to get ready for bed now. Thank you so much for reading. My Weekly Diary will be up tomorrow.
Have a great day!

We all want clothes that look great, are comfortable, and most importantly fit well.
I love reading sewing books (you can read about some of my favourites here). Even if you are an expert at sewing, you will sometimes need to refer to a good pattern drafting book to ensure you are getting your measurements right, in the correct areas.
5th Edition – Metric Pattern Cutting for Women’s Wear – by Winifred Aldrich – This book is my favourite patterning drafting book. I have referred to this book for many years. It is easy to follow, with clear instructions, and simple diagrams.
Inside the book:
First of all there an introduction, followed by information on: pattern & design cutting, fabrics, and tools & equipment for making patterns. The book is then divided into four parts.
Part one – is about ‘Classic form cutting’ which has sections on: the basic darted…

Good morning from New Zealand 🙂 🙂
It is my last full-day here today, so I am up nice and early. I have to make the most of today, and spend more time with family.
It has been such a short trip, the time has passed by so fast. Next time I visit it will have to be for longer.
Today I am reblogging a post on Affirmations. I love saying affirmations on a daily basis to myself. I will post my Weekly Diary for last week on Wednesday since I am short on time.
Ok, I will get ready now then go to my Mum’s. Thank you so much for reading. Have a great day!

I had never practiced the use of affirmations until I read the book ‘You can heal your life’ by Louise L. Hay (read more about the book here).
When I read about how affirmations could help with making people’s lives better, I thought it was an interesting way to change ones mindset, and outlook on life. The idea of being able to control what you let go of and what comes into your life, felt very empowering for me to read about.
Affirmations have really helped me with achieving goals in my life and attracting what I want. I like to write one affirmation a day, reading it before I go to bed, and placing it under my pillow. Then the first thing in the morning that I do is read the same affirmation to start my day in a positive light.
Doing this everyday helps put a positive…

Hi 🙂 🙂
Been busy packing for New Zealand and sending required documents for a job interview, that I forgot to post on my blog.
Today I am reblogging a post on my favourite face moisturisers from Natio, an Australian owed and made skincare and cosmetics company.
I still have another assignment to complete. Which kind of sucks since I will have to do it at night during my visit to New Zealand.
Ok, I need to get back to packing. Thank you for reading. Have a wonderful day!

It is important to keep your face well protected and hydrated. As when going outside the sun can really damage your skin, creating dark spots, and causing skin to scar.
Thankfully with the right face moisturiser you can help prevent damage on your skin. When it comes to choosing a day time moisturiser what I look for is: that it contains a SPF to protect my skin from damaging sun UV rays, that it is moisturising but not greasy (oil-free is best for me), and that it smells great (as it will be on my face all day, it has to smell good >^.^<).
I purchased the above moisturisers by Natio (Australian owned and made in Australia skincare and cosmetics company), along with other great skincare products (see skincare haul here). As I have used Natio products for many years I decided to change up my skincare routine and purchase these…

Hi 🙂 🙂
Just about to get ready to go to a job interview (second stage of the process) ❤ ❤ I have written down somes notes about the company and what I will discuss.
I find notes are always great as I can re-read them on the train and then naturally know what to say, and know how I will answer the interviewers questions.
Today I am reblogging a post on my favourite facial wash and facial scrub by Natio. I love Natio so much, they are Australian owed and made.
I will do more study and painting tonight after my interview when I get home. I hope you are having a great day.
Thank you so much for reading. This is a short post, but I need to get ready for my interview so I have to go now. Have a great day!

Having a good cleanser is the first step to having clear, clean, and radiant skin.
It is also important to keep your skin hydrated, so you must drink enough water daily. I cleanse my face daily. Followed by using toner, and a moisturiser. I use a moisturiser with SPF in it for daytime use, and an eye cream, and night moisturiser for night-time use.
The skincare range that I use is by Australian owned company Natio. All their products are made in Australia. They make great skincare and make-up products. I purchased the above face products last month (see skincare haul here).
Here are my thoughts:
Natio – Aromatherapy – Renew Radiance Foam Cleanser – This foam cleanser retails for $15.95 AUD. It is a good size of 100 g. You only need to use a small drop of it as it foams up, expanding when mixed with water, and rubbed on the…

Hello there 😀 😀
Today my partner and I took our dog to the vet. Nothing serious, just for the annual injections required. Our dog is a Toy Poodle and is 7 years old.
His name is Lamington and he really hates going to the vet. Every time he goes he gets really jumpy and pants alot lol (has his tounge sticking out).
He really tries to fight getting injections done, so my partner has to hold him well while the vet gives Lamington his injections. Once he is all done, he is back to his normal happy self with a big smile on his face.
We just got back from the vet not too long ago. I gave Lami (one of Lamington’s nick names) a shower, then I had a green tea. I am going to complete my assignments today, may have to stay up tonight doing them.
Today I am reblogging a post on my favourite nose strips. They are so much fun to use and work really well. I will use one tonight and a face mask.
Well I hope your weekend is going great and that you are happy. I shall get back to studying now.
Thank you so much for reading. Have a great day!

It is important to keep your skin well nourished, and hydrated. Drinking plenty of water daily is good, as well as having a balance diet can help with keeping your skin healthy.
Sometimes cleansing is not enough to remove blemishes, and dead skin from your face. You need to have a good skincare routine that involves not only water, and face wash.
It is important to cleanse, tone, and moisturise. Then occasionally use pore strips, and face masks.
Biore – Ultra Deep Cleansing Pore Strips – I recently made an online order from Priceline (see haul here). I have been using these nose strips for a few years now, and love the results each time. This product retails for $7.29 AUD and comes with six nose strips.
Above is a picture of the back of the packaging. It mentions that leaving dirt in your pores can lead to bigger…
