Some people don’t have goals, but then where is your life going. How are you going to improve? I have a few simple goals.  Goal 1: transition fully to a plant based diet and find vegan alternatives to everyday items. Currently the only times I eat meat is when someone else is feeding me. All the meals I make at home are 99% plant based. I am hoping to change that to 100% plant based and to not be buying anymore items that may include animal products like checking my soaps ect. I also am working towards replacing my leather items like work shoes with synthetic options and then donating the leather. So that it isn't going to waste but I don't have to feel bad about wearing the clothing. Goal 2: Be as active as I can I really am not the most active person. I don’t lay in bed all day at all. I just don’t work out; I ride occasionally but even that I haven’t been doing as much. My goal is to ride as much as I can and to start working out at ho...

Hello my beautiful readers!  So this question exists.... Why did I become so interested in health? Well to be fair I always was interested in health. The difference is that I have moved out and get to choose what goes in my mouth now, and where my money goes. No one can tell me that I can’t be vegan. I have always struggled with my weight and have be exercising and eating healthy in hopes to better manage my weight (still early in the journey) and to ultimately feel better. I have found that just from exercising alone you tend to love your body more and see yourself as more attractive.   I have not always had a good relationship with food and that is another thing I wanted to change, I always thought wow when I move out I am never going to buy junk food (and I really don’t!). I am going to work to be healthy so in a way its what I have always wanted. When living at home I didn’t really have control over what I ate I got fed and I ate wha...

My go to Oatmeal recipe This lately is my favourite food (tied with mash potatoes), I literally eat it everyday either for breakfast or later in the day after a smoothie. It satiates me and keeps me full for a long period of time. I love the flavour but I also love that its so versatile and I can mix it up every single day It literally never gets boring and I love it!! That being said I thought I would share with y’all my go to Oats recipe. Enjoy! Ingredients   Serves 2: 2 cups Soy Milk (or any plant based milk) 1 Tbsp Cinnamon 1 tsp Brown Sugar (optional) 1 cup Rolled Oats 3 Tbsp Black Chia Seeds Fruit to top Method: 1.          Put your plant based milk in a pot, on medium heat. Add Cinnamon and Brown Sugar. Mix together. 2.          Then add the the Oats and Chia Seeds. Continue to stir so it doesn’t burn. 3.          When it...

Hey everyone! So wiggly eyebrows what do y'all think? It is such a strange trend, I mean it would have happened at some point. This is such a strange trend that honestly I am not the biggest fan of. The difference between this trend that is interesting is that no one has naturally wavy eyebrows. Where people can more naturally have thin or thick eyebrows. Our having them more clean cut also isn't that weird. This trend though is super crazy. Are people actually wearing this trend in public, I haven't seen it. If you don't know what I am talking about here are some examples here here Isabelle x

Sometimes life is just truly crazy isn’t it? I mean sometimes I am in a lull waiting for the craziness to begin again. Or maybe some people actually have a steady life where the craziness is spread out. Strangely that has never been what it is like for me. I enjoy it when it is fast paced. It is always exciting.  My life became fast paced from when I visited Canberra, that actual even wasn’t fast paced it was relaxing. I had a lovely time there. I would even say it was perfect. The day I got back though was when we started moving. Slept on the floor of the old house. By the next day we had moved most of the essentials and have been sleeping here since. So now I am back in Brisbane, the end of school and also I have 5 shifts this week. The end of the year is going to be crazy busy. End of year exams, quitting my job, formal, moving, getting a new job and then finally the lull. Though it will be a perfect break. A summer holidays that I look forward too. It will be one of change...

  Hey everyone  This is my productive day of yesterday! 8 am  Wake up get dressed. Eat Breakfast which I had a piece of toast.  I then Showered and did my regular morning routine.  10 am  After having a pretty slow morning I go to the library to do school. I do school online and do not have wifi at home at the moment. We get it Friday the excitement is real!  12pm  Take a break from school and talk to my boyfriend on the phone 2pm I finish up school at this time and then I get a snack from the local shop to tied me over till I can cook myself lunch 3:10pm  I make myself a toasted sandwich with Roast Beef, Cheese, Tomato after it was toasted I added lettuce and some mustard. The rest of my afternoon consists of hanging out with my family, working on school work, fixing up my room (it now looks good after the move, who would like to see it?)  6pm  Have dinner Sang Chao Bao, this was delicious...

Hey everyone! Recently I went to Dreamworld and it was loads of fun. I had not been to a theme park in a while. I went on my first proper roller coaster! I did learn that I am not really a rides person, I do not really like heights and I hoped to get an adrenaline rush but that did not really happen. I ended up being on rides holding on partially with my eyes closed waiting for it to be over. They have good rides don't get me wrong and who I was with had a a blast. I also think its great for people of all ages with the variety of rides they do have. The interesting thing is that I really enjoyed the animal aspects of Dreamworld. They have a Tiger area which I saw the tiger show which was super amazing. I love these things and I would love to work at a zoo doing thins kind of stuff one day. I really love animals and honestly could have spent a long time with the animals. * I also recently went to Australia zoo (the Irwin one) comment if you would like to hear about that adve...

Where have I been?  Well I guess the fact that I had mentioned previously I was visiting my boyfriends and moving soon would help anyone wondering.  It has been a while since I have posted almost two weeks maybe even, two weeks by the time I get to some free wifi. It has been an especially long time considering I was posting practically everyday.  I will not be resuming to post everyday but I will be posting again often. With my usual wide range of posts. I have recently moved house and although the wifi people said we would have wifi when we moved it turns out we do not. Thats always the way isn’t it? Or is it just my luck with wifi?  Does anyone else always have wifi problems when the first move in?  I miss reading the lovely comments people leave me, and cannot wait to get wifi again!  As always, Isabelle xxx    

I am that girl that is always buying plane tickets. It makes sense because I am in a long distance relationship. Going back to the place I know, and lived for the longest I have anywhere else in my life. Being able to notice every little thing that has changed. It may be an adventure but it doesn't feel like that. I do love to visit don't get me wrong. I long for when I move there in November that then I may be able to spend that money on new adventures, not knowing where I am and being able to just explore. Have fun enjoy the moment. I wont have to travel to see my boy. So I long for the time when we can travel together or even when I can solo travel. Feeling the travel bug coming on. I think it is a great thing to travel while you are young before a lot of the sucky adult responsibilities kick in. So I cannot wait till I am sharing with you guys more of my crazy, amazing exotic adventures. Seeing the beauty of the world, like Princess Jasmine one the magic carpet. Until ...

Hey Everyone! Moving, this has almost become my specialty. In about 12 months by the end of the year i will have moved 3 times. Kinda crazy I know.   Though I figured that i meant i am qualified for giving you tips. Especially when two of three of these moves will be interstate.  and more then just the next one over! --> Let me know in the comments if this is something you would be interested to hear more about over the next few weeks. So today I will be telling you about packing tips:  When deciding what to take to your new house you are likely to get rid of a lot of stuff. Most people don't go through there stuff and get rid of what you don't need regularly enough.  This is a list of things you may want to consider, or what you should  generally get rid of (of courser there are exceptions): - expired things anything that you are holding on to thats expired should go( (ie coupons, makeup, food) - old things you ...
