Simple Pleasures

Do you ever have one of those days that even the simplest things seem soo enjoyable!
Today was one of those days. I really did nothing spectacular! I was craving a pomegranate! which ended up being delicious! And then did nothing of consequence until dance class and teaching.
After which I went to a friends place, ate beautiful home made soup and played cards till quite late.

But it is these things that I love! And it is also these things that I feel I am going to miss whilst I am away! But i know that this blog and keeping up with my youtube posts will help.

I have always been one of those people who make friends easily. Mainly because I am quite an outgoing person and i really don't have anything bad to say about anyone. I easily forgive people, which can be a major issue because i end up eating hurt all over again but I am definitely a glass half full person! And so it seems that i really shouldn't be worried about not knowing anyone but for some crazy reason I am.

I am sure that once i get there i will be so excited about the whole thing that i will soon forget all of that but with it getting closer and closer I feel like everything is going a little crazy.

I am getting soo excited/ soo scared to upload my first video but I am hoping i will Put it up tomorrow and we will see what happens. Check it out! Subscribe! http://www.youtube.com/kirrajadeee

A Magical Experience

I was reminiscing today about my trip to the US last year and came across these photos from the Philadelphia Magic Gardens. It was my first week in America, I was by myself and it was the furthest i had ever been away. I was so excited to be in this amazing country and it was a trip that i had been dreaming of my whole life. 

I remember trying to find some exciting things to do in Philadelphia and I came across the Magic Gardens. It was this beautiful man made maze that was completely tiled and painted and any type of creativity that you could think of. And the most beautiful part was that most of what made up this space was what everyone else would call junk! But to the man who created it and definitely to me, It was this spellbinding work of art. I spent 3hrs that day wandering around this small maze and every time i walked through i would that find something completely different caught my eye. I could just sit in this space and think and be so wonderfully inspired. 

It wasn't until my 3rd or 4th trip around the space that i started to notice all the notes and wishes that people had placed in the bottles and glasses and in every nook and cranny. And to me it felt at first a little invasive of me to look and read what these people had written. But the words were so truthful to my life that it seemed to me as though in some crazy way, I was supposed to find them. In turn, I then left my own words of wisdom behind and I wonder how many people have seen them and been inspired to do something or even write down their own words. Did my writing become imprinted in their soul as the others did mine or did they echo out of an unwelcoming mind?

Now thinking back on my whole trip, it truly was the most amazing thing I have ever done! I met so many amazing people and have friends all over the world. I cant wait for my next amazing adventure because i can just feel that i am meant to have so many more! 

What was your greatest adventure? Or what is the adventure that you cant wait to take?

Parents and Technology

Do you ever notice that your parents really have no idea about things this century.

My parents seem to only need to touch technology and it dies! And then of course I get blamed with the whole "It was working before you touched it!" But yet I am the only one that can fix anything in this house.

My dad is the worst. He always tries really hard but he just doesn't get it. On top of the fact that he doesn't understand anything he is also the only one in the house that doesn't have Mac products! Now I havnt used anything but mac since I was .... I don't even know. But he is always wanting to learn new things and asking me questions, which I am happy to teach but because I don't use those products i need to figure it out myself first so that I can teach him. Apparently he doesn't understand this and get so frustrated that i cant just show him straight away and so in turn i get frustrated at him.

My mothers biggest problem is with the Internet. Anytime the internet decides to slow down a tiny bit or maybe even when a server is busy all you hear is "Kirra, the internet is broken again" because apparently its really hard to go into the next room and check that the signal lights are on at the modem or to turn a switch on and back on.

Just recently we had a massive problem with our internet and my dad works in another state so he wasn't home (plus he would have no idea how to fix anything) and basically my mum had no idea. So I had to call our service provider who then in turn couldn't tell me anything because everything was under my dad's name.
Im sorry but why would my dad not put me down as a person they could talk to when he knows that I am going to be the only one that can deal the issue.

It just seems like common sense does it not?


But I love them! Even if they do drive me absolutely insane!

Amazed!

Do you ever have those moments that someone completely surprises you?
I just did.
My best friend told me something that I already knew but that he was finally comfortable enough to talk about it with me.
Now you may think that it is odd that your best friend would not be comfortable enough to speak about certain things with you so maybe I should tell you a little more about him.

He is actually one of the sweetest guys i know! But he is very shy almost to the point of socially awkward but not quite, and i think its one of my favourite things about him. As I am the complete opposite and am really outgoing, so we compliment each other nicely. I actually don't even know how we became friends. He is amazingly talented and I am always in awe of how utterly brilliant he is. But because he is so shy it has takes him a while to be able to tell you everything he is thinking and tonight he opened up about something that I am sure he has tried to say many times before.

When something like that happens its like a door opens and finally there are all these conversations that we had never been able to have ... that we now can! It makes me feel so excited that someone would feel so comfortable with me that they would want me to know absolutely everything about them.

Heyyy Everyone,

So tonight I had the amazing opportunity to watch one of my amazing friends in his own cabaret. Crazy I know. So anyway this friend of mine is only 21 and he has already done all these amazing things like he was in the cast of Wicked touring Korea and Singapore. And overtime i watch him i just get so amazingly inspired but that the same time a little not upset but i guess annoyed with myself. I mean I want to be doing that and i feel so far away from it that it may never happen. At the same time I am so excited that i am starting to write this blog and start a Youtube channel and i just think it will be a really amazing way for me to open up a little bit more. Because as I said I am such a bubbly person and i love meeting people and I talk non stop so this should be a lot of fun and a brilliant new creative outlet.

I started filming my fist video tonight and I am having soo much fun with it! I am starting with a 50 facts about me video because what better than to introduce myself to all of you!

Along with me starting all these amazing things I am heading down to the snowy mountains in 2 weeks to work for 3 months. Which is superduper exciting but also scary at the same time. I am actually more scared to go down there for 3 months than i was when i was going to the US for 3 months last year! But Im also pretty excited at the fact that i will be saving money and hopefully going travelling at the end of the year! I would really love to go back to the US but i also want to travel Europe as i have never actually been! It is going to cost me a fortune no matter where I go just because Australia is actually in the middle of NOWHERE! And I didn't quite realise that until I went to the US because everyone kept saying how far away it is!

INSPIRATION!

So i wrote my first post….. deleted it…….. and am now writing again! 

I really don’t know what to tell you on what this is going to be about because it is going to be about anything and everything! My own self discovery!!! 

I have always wanted to do all these amazing things like write a blog and make a youtube channel! And in the past 48 hours I have spent so much time on youtube watching all these amazing people with their videos and doing all these amazing things! It started by basically watching a youtube reviews video and seeing these twins (Jack and Finn) that i hadn’t seen before which then led me to their channel(Jacksgap), which in turn led me to someone else’s channel and so on and so forth. And anyway it finally inspired me to start my own channel and get on tumblr and just start opening myself up to more creative outlets! I have always been creative and why not try something different! Have some fun with it. 

So i guess i am just going to start off with 10 things about me!

1. I Love Musical Theatre

2. I Sing (a lot)

3. I Tap All The Time! (no matter where i am!) 

4. I have 2 very amazing best friends! (which are actually both guys)

5. My Mother Thinks I Am The Biggest Fag Hag Ever!! (probably true)

6. I Wish I Had Naturally Curly Hair

7. I Think My Best Feature Is My Lips

8. I Love The Beach But Hate Sand

9. I Have A Bubble Personality But Am Shy When Performing

10. I Have A Dog (Buffy) and 2 Turtles (Meeku and Crush)

I feel as though that is all for the moment! I will let you know when i post my first video!
