I want a Pensieve. When I first read about Professor Dumbledore’s Pensieve ( a type of stone basin within which one can place and store thoughts and memories) in the Harry Potter series long ago, my immeditate thoughts was “Cool!”. Not long after that it was “I think I need one!”. Been feeling like my [...]

Sorry, I’m busy fighting Fear!
Posted in Anxiety, tagged Anxiety on August 2, 2010 | 3 Comments »
Fear. It’s something we all hear about, and often we feel. That feeling of impeding danger; like something bad is going to happen. For someone living with Anxiety, this fear is constant; fearing possible futures seems to become almost a way of life. It’s frustrating, incapacitating, and can be depressing. If the Anxiety gets too [...]

I started writing this blog in the hopes that whomever may read it might understand the plights of Anxiety/ Depression sufferers. I write this blog, hoping I could perhaps help those that are going through the same thing, or something similar. Part of my blog is also dedicated to my work with Fauna Rescue; a [...]

Not too much to say today. So just some quick updates. Fauna Rescue: Haven’t had many calls lately, but I did get one yesterday. It was to come get a magpie that was flying around in a live theatre. Luckily, the woman called back immediately afterwards saying that the bird had managed to find its [...]
17th April 2010: Thoughts in Solitude

Firstly, I’d just like to apologize in advance for any headaches that occur from reading this post…I just hope it makes sense. Adelaide had a small Earthquake last night. I was sitting at my laptop, listening to music, when I suddenly felt the floor shudder beneath my feet. It only lasted a few seconds, but [...]
2nd April 2010: First holiday, then back to the rescue

Had my first actual holiday last weekend. The family talked me into coming with them to Kangaroo Island. I didn’t particularly want to leave my pets, even just for a few days; but I also didn’t want to regret not going. So I went. It was ok; the first night was hard. I hadn’t been [...]
20th February 2010: And Another Failure…

Well, here I sit listening to the sadder songs on a soundtrack….as that’s how I’m feeling right now; sad, frustrated, anxious, scared, a little confused but not surprised….. I beat the anxiety when it came to attending and completing my Work Experience…..and it decided to pay me back barely a week later. Ever since I [...]

Well, time for the inevitable bout of nervousness, complete with the occasional shakes and the unwelcome negative thoughts gatecrashing the excitement. I apologize if the above doesn’t make sense…I often write what’s on my mind at the time… I start my three-day work experience on Monday. I am looking forward to it; and I hope it [...]
19th January 2010: Ducks back home, and nerves…oh, the nerves!
Posted in Animals, Anxiety, Fauna Rescue, tagged Anxiety, Ducks, Fauna Rescue on January 19, 2010 | Leave a Comment »
Well, the Wood Ducks went back to their home yesterday. They didn’t like being bundled into a large carry cage; but once there they got very excited at seeing six other Wood Ducks around their age- followed by a large white Goose (that plays mother to Ducklings). It is possible that the ducks *could* be [...]
23rd September ’09: Fauna Rescue notes, and changes…

I’ve been keeping busy with Magpies lately. This past week we’ve been getting about a call a day. During this time, we dropped off the two Magpies I was looking after (‘Brazen’ and the younger one) to another carer, as they were both needing mentoring by older magpies and to be in an aviary as [...]
