Taking to the fastest escape route south...

I never realised till I moved to my current location just how much the people in a town can make you hate a place.

Now, you could say it’s just me, however when you hear the same thing mentioned on a daily basis, it’s a bit hard to think I’m the only one.

I know it is ever so clichéd for one generation to say how much of a letdown the next is, but in this case it is so far past proven it's more of an acceptance. No respect, no gratitude and no responsibility. And why I have thought it to be just teenagers and so on, surprise surprise some of their parents are the worst.

In this day and age having a child seems to be the equivalent of having a pay check, and Peter Costello’s tagline from years ago, 'Have one for mum, one for dad and one for country', is running rampant. Problem is, I think some get confused and weren’t sure which father of their brood he meant. After all, when you are four paternity tests in and you still don't know, the more the merrier right?

Use all that money you freeload off of the government and buy a fucking clue.



End Rant.

An Introduction…. Of Sorts


The best way to start is always at the beginning.

Alexithymia: Alexi for short. A for incredibly short. And definitely not Mia.

My heart moves to a creative beat, decorating my ribcage in splatters of paint, ink, polaroids and treble clefs.

I want to be so many things, that I’ve realised I will never fit them all into this lifetime.

I can promise mindless rants, drabble, sketches and possible essays may follow. But whatever it is, rest assured, it all comes from within the depths of my little tarnished soul.

‘What is mine, is yours… As long as you believe in it.’
