Day 29 – Things that make me feel…
Dear Diary, Coming home last night, soaring somewhere up above cloud nine I thought to myself, I must be one weird woman. Things that make me feel AAAW an AAAAH and ‘I am the king of the world’ are not really the ‘things’ (Oh, you’d know what I mean) That kind of feeling. That kind…
Day 28 – The most difficult thing to forgive
Dear Diary, I have been slack yet again. But in my defence, I can say that I started writing this post in time. However, everything interferred in between and I could not finish it… I forgot to finish it. The most difficult thing to forget… What would it be? Betrayal of friends? Betrayal of loved…
Day 27 – What would I say to my EX
Dear Diary Well, well, well. This topic is a bit auspicious, if you ask me. It is French Film Festival time in Melbourne. I chose quite a few films that I’d like to watch. One of them – The Exes. I already saw it. This movie is a very light and bright comedy about exes…

Day 22 – 3 Memories from childhood
Dear Diary, Day 22 is something. It is Sunday, for one. It was the day I spent in the city with my daughter. It is a day for being mum to 16 year old…. NO WAY. It is for being 16 year old I think I’ve mentioned in one of my post that I never…
Day 21 – Dream Date
Dear Diary, I was driving my daughter to Russian School this morning and was thinking up a post. I wanted to write something hard an heavy and life-affirming or dismantling, along the lines of ‘shards of independence’.
