Let me start by saying Happy New Year. Just like everyone else I take this time to look back on the year. At this time of the year it can be easy to get swallowed up with what you want to change, improve and well the dread of knowing that you have to go back to work but I want to reflect on the positives of the year. They say each year 2 big events in your life happen and that was the case for me, there are two things about the year I look back on with fondness and joy and they're experiences I won't ever forget (or at least I hope I don't) however there is a third thing as well that wasn't necessarily big or new or that exciting but might help with looking forward to the future. My first big event was something that for a while I wasn't sure would happen and that was graduating from University. I struggled at uni, I suffered from depression and I wanted to give up, it crushed me emotionally and mentally and if I could go back now to 18 year old me I'd tell h...

Here I am again. It's Merel here. Time for some fun facts with Merel, as a continuation from Georgia's post. First things first, I'm 21, though I will be turning 22 quite soon. 1. I can't live my life without music. Honestly, I'll listen to music in all situations- whether I'm in the shower, reading a book, studying, writing, walking; just whenever. It's the background noise that's comforting, and the silence doesn't appeal to me. There is a range of music that I like to listen to which mostly ranges from rock to alternative to indie, and things somewhere in between. My spotify music selection can be quite a mix and I love it. 2. I love reading- which includes collecting books. So far my collection is sitting at about 189 books. I have to admit a lot of those books are young adult books, though I have been collecting books since I can remember. 3. I'm terrible at picking favourites (just like Georgia...), and am also very indecisive. Som...

So you got to know a little about us in our blog introduction but now it's time to get personal. Kia Ora,  My name is Georgia, my friends sometimes call me Gee and some people at work call me Joga (don't know where it came from or why but it's not the worst nickname) but most people just call me Georgia. Now I don't know about you but I'm feeling 22 (sorry that's a lame joke but I only have a year to make it so I'm going to make the most of it). I'm not really sure how to go about introducing myself I'm not good with introductions so I'm just going to share some facts about me. Here we go: 1) The furthest I have travelled from home was to Washington DC after I won a trip. I got a personal spy tour of Washington and learnt all about how the spies operated during the cold war. It was such an amazing time and Washington is so beautiful and I can't wait to go back there some day. 2) I suck at picking favourites. I don't know ...

Welcome to our blog! 💖 Every first encounter should start with an introduction so here’s ours. Hello. We’re Merel and Georgia and we’re from that little island down the bottom of your map called New Zealand, it's very small and very green and most of you would probably know it as Middle Earth. Both of us are in our final year of university and tbh we can't wait to finish. We meet in high school and we've been friends ever since. Our blog itself is about so many different things, from helpful life tips that we’ve picked up in our years of life to our passions. So join us on our life journeys from the end of our university studies onward. Now for the more personal one on one stuff: I'm Georgia, I'm currently completing a bachelor of commerce majoring in Management and Media Studies with a minor in Marketing. I work part time at a movie theater as a supervisor and I've been in the same job for almost 2 years. I still don't really know what I wan...
