I’m totally shocked that Lorenzo Crowder got kicked out of this competition for reporting that his partner had done terribly in their collaborative task. Apparently, it was a trick to see which of them would be meaner to the other. Captain Fawcett glowingly reviewed Lorenzo, so he gets to stay, even though he’s going around …
I absolutely love my family. My wife passed away what feels like forever ago now, but my daughter and son worked together to make me feel like my wife is with me even though she can’t be. My daughter, who has always been an incredibly talented artist despite what she thinks about herself, painted a …
Why does Cecily have to be so dramatic about everything? All Patrice and I are trying to do is make a little movie about coven life – nothing too flashy, just a record of what really goes on inside the salt circle, you know? I think Cecily fears that once word gets out, we’ll be …
Unlike most kids, I was never afraid of the dentist. I didn’t understand what the big fuss was about because you always knew what the dentist was going to do. It’s not like the doctor who you’d visit because you have a cold and then all of a sudden they’re having a look under your …
Property ownership: a controversial topic of conversation. You’d never know that so many of your friends were die-hard communists if it weren’t for its divisive ways.

The year I was supposed to get my license I developed a medical condition that meant I could no longer drive. As you can imagine, this was pretty devastating as a seventeen year old who had been looking forward to driving ever since she got her L plates two years earlier. I had to watch …
Since breaking up with my girlfriend, I’ve found it difficult to do things that we used to do together. Even the most simple things, like going for a drive through the suburbs on a nice day or getting my favourite takeaway have become difficult and sad. I miss her and anything that reminds me of …
So my dad has officially been in the retirement village for a month. He’s settled in well, and although it’s been an adjustment for all of us, I’m happy with how the transition has been. The last time I updated you all was the day that I was driving him to his new home, and …
My Mum always says that the hardest part about driving is knowing where you’re going. Until I got my license, I didn’t truly understand what she meant. I thought it couldn’t be that hard, what with maps on my phone and street signs everywhere. It wasn’t until I was a fresh P Plater driving with …
Last Thursday I arranged with my boss to l eave work early so that I could go to my daughter’s mid-year ballet recital. She had been training for it for the last six months, and it meant a lot to both of us that I was there to support her. My plan was to meet …
