Lorenzo snuck along the street, keeping an eye out for giant cockroaches as usual. He wasn’t far from the Sideways Hotel, where the mysterious ‘G’ had told him to go. Flagtown looked different than the last time Lorenzo had seen it. More ruined, for sure. Buildings were starting to fall apart as they were neglected …
My eyesight was cruelly taken away from me at the age of 39. I went from being an accomplished paramedic and ambulance driver to not being able to drive at all. I used to save lives for a living and now I can’t even walk the streets without my cane. It was demoralising when all …
So I just got my car back from the mechanic – on time, I might add! As expected, he worked efficiently, effectively and to the highest standard. He truly is the best mechanic in the business, which is why I go to him. I know I’m privileged to live in such a beautiful and well …
I’m so cold and I just want to get home. It’s pretty much freezing in Underwood (it’s almost fifteen degrees celsius) and I just want to be in bed with my weighted blanket on me and sitting on top of the heater. I know this is what people down south would consider a ‘warm winter’s …
I’m sick of talking about cars. I’m a car salesperson, which means talking about cars is what I do all day, every day, and I am over it. I just want to go one day without mentioning the latest car model and brand, or trying to make potential customers feel so special that they just …

Kids can be so annoying sometimes, particularly when they are your own. Why can’t they just listen to me? I keep telling Timmy that I need to take him to the dentist because he has been complaining about his teeth hurting. I can’t see why he wouldn’t want to go, but there’s just no persuading …
It’s my boyfriend’s university graduation in two hours and I’m going to be late. This is one of the biggest days of his life and I might miss it because my car broke down. I called him crying just five minutes ago when it happened, and he seemed really disappointed. Of course, he knows that …
Before any big event I like to get my teeth professionally cleaned. It makes me feel more put together and that I’m absolutely shining. When I smile I like seeing people do a double take because of how perfect and white my teeth are. When people talk about me to others who may not know …
I’ve just started a small business and it’s a lolly shop! Having young kids, I know how popular lolly shops can be. My rationale for starting this business is that I’ve spent that much money in lolly shops already for my kids, that I may as well put that money towards my own lolly shop …
