Daddy Issues



It's the awkward time in the year again when we celebrate half of the reason why we even exist today, Father's Day.

Yes it's awkward for me because you could say I do not have the greatest relationship with my father. It will be the brief text saying "happy fathers day, hope you have a good day x" and the reply will be "thanks".

I understand that we should appreciate our parents, but it is hard to do so when one parent just does not know anything about you, it's difficult.

It was not always like this, I use to be Daddy's little girl. There are pictures of me sitting on his lap all smiling and happy or building a sandcastle together. I look at these and wonder how did we ever drift so far apart.

So now my little rant is over I will get back to drinking my wine and I will appreciate all the amazing people I have in my life.

My future looks like a magazine

My ever growing magazine collection.
It has come to that time again when I have to choose what major I want to pursue in my last year of university next year, and I am even more confused and conflicted about what I want to do.

I moved up to Auckland with one goal in my mind: to get into the journalism major. But things changed, as they do quite often with me.

The first half of this year was rough on me, I wasn't in the right frame of mind and I became somewhat depressed as I felt that I was not good at university altogether. I went home for two weeks and got away from the city which gave me time to sit, chill and think.

So far this semester has been great and I have begun to remember why I made the move up to Auckland, I want to work for a fashion magazine.

I love fashion, I might not have the money to buy the clothes I want but that doesn't stop me from opening Vogue Australia or Remix and appreciating every single piece of clothing and imaging what I could wear or what would suit me.

So now that it has come to the time to pick majors I know I want to do journalism. But first I have to get the good grades so I can be accepted into journalism next year.

The best I can do is take one step at a time and stay true to what I believe I am capable of and that is that I will one day work for a fashion magazine.
