Goodbye Money



Had one of the best weeks ever and possibly one of the most unforgettable weekends. Not only did I get to meet up with a few of my favourites and watch an amazing play, I went to my first music festival and it was amazing, to say the least! The week was spent acting cultured and refined, from baking cakes to watching Shakespeare to buying an unnecessarily large amounts of makeup. 

To celebrate my sister's return from her holiday in Europe and to apologise for not being able to be home for when she is, I baked two sets of matcha green tea cakes. One was a matcha green tea bunny cake and the other was a giant matcha green tea tower kitkat cake. It is safe to say that both have been demolished completely and thank god I got to eat some before I left.

Is it bad to say I abandoned my sister for a date? Though mind you, it wasn't really a date but a lovely day between two of my favourites. My morning was spent having breakfast and catching up a faraway friend from Canberra, in, of course, Social-Laneway Espresso (it was a Wednesday, afterall). As it turns out, they have amazing breakfast food and no, this time I didn't order a lemon-meringue pie.

Following breakfast and a less-fun shift at Pacific Magazine, I met up with one of my favourite all-time girls and spent an amazing night with her. It was probably one of the best non-dates I have ever been on and she is one of the only girls who will go with me to watch Shakespeare and act cultured and fancy. A wonderful date at the Sydney Opera House where we were blown way by the Bell Shakepeare's production of The Tempest is the best way to pick yourself up mid-week.

As for the weekend ... I am honestly speechless. I had one of the best days ever at Defqon. 1 2015 and being paid to go there for work was honestly the icing to the cake. Not only did I get to meet amazing artists and talk to them for hours and hours before and after their performances, I massaged them. They were some of the nicest and sweetest people on earth and I am honestly so lucky to have been able to meet them. Not to mention touch them. For a first time at a music festival, I would think that's pretty unbeatable.

All in all, this week was by far the most amazing. Almost makes me want to do it all again, but now I'm slightly exhausted and poor. Maybe next year.

ROB's  Special Breakfast S.L scrambled eggs, shallot, crispy bacon, avocado and toast and Social-Laneway never fails to impress and satisfy my cravings, whether it be sweet or savoury. Their food is immensely satisfying and just enough to fill someone up. Their eggs are cooked to perfection and it's always a delight to feast there.
