Introduction

Chances are that if you're reading this, I sent you here and you have at least a vague notion of who I am. If you don't... well, that's even better. I'm a big fan of making it up as I go.

I'm a 25 year old developer + designer + illustrator living in Australia, dreaming about cooking, crafting and ridiculously unnecessary projects. I've just left an incredibly stressful full time job of 3 years and I'm in the middle of some sort of month long brain-splosion while I get my mind around all the huge new possibilities in my life. I'm currently super excited to be getting a work/life balance back in play while I freelance, and I'm feeling incredibly thankful for all the little daily moments I've been missing out on for years while working 12+ hours a day.

Amazingly I've been lucky enough to have my long-time partner (hereby known only as Boyfriend) resign at the same time, so we'll be freelancing together while we try and wrap our minds around the ridiculously large changes in our lives! Yay! (I think).

At the moment, everything from actually going outside during the day, to tackling a long-intended project hand screen-printing designs is like some sort of miracle, and we've both been taking the time just to stop and watch the tiny disney-esque birds on our lawn each day and breathe easy knowing we can just slow down. Just having time to stop and appreciate life is absolutely blowing my mind... which may be why I've suddenly taken on way more projects than a sane person can handle. But hey, I'm used to the insane part, so we'll see how I go!

So this seems like a great time to start keeping a record of my life, creative ventures, and slightly retarded ideas. Please don't judge me... unless you think I'm doing fantastically. In which case, judge away.
