Playing this song on repeat

Drinking ginger green tea like it’s my job

Watching broccoli seedlings grow

Researching trade practices law

Planning an eco fair visit for the weekend

Burning a coconut lime candle on my study desk

Wearing slippers again

Hosting friends for dinner tonight

Looking forward to peanut butter hot chocolate post-essay celebrations

Soaking in the last few sunny days

 

That photo is from The Little Concept, the cafe in Fremantle I will be visiting when I finish writing my essay. Waiting for Wednesday but not wishing away today.

List-en up

Standard

There are a few important things you should know about me.

The first, obviously, is that I’m awful at puns (if you’re still here, thank you). The second (and more important) is that I’m a big fan of lists. Any wisdom that can be condensed into a few bullet-pointed lines is my kind of knowledge.

So for that reason, I’m going to use as an introductory tool a list, to tell you more about myself and to indulge my love of a few ordered facts.

Ten things about Sophie

  1. I like making myself (with great expense and fuss) foods I can easily buy at the supermarket, like muesli, pickles and peanut butter
  2. The radio in my car is broken so when I’m driving I pass the time by practicing Enimen rap verses out loud
  3. I have three sisters; one older, one younger and one a lot younger
  4. I could be described correctly as “a cat lover”; “a Babysitters Club fan” and “an enthusiastic dancer”
  5. I could be described incorrectly as “a skilled driver”; “a moderate eater” and “a pants fan”
  6. I have been dating my ruggedly handsome boyfriend Travis for three years; he is ever supportive of my cooking and eating habits (and less so my dancing skills)
  7. I attend occasional yoga classes which makes me think I am a flexible goddess; unfortunately I am merely able to sit cross-legged anywhere and nothing more
  8. At uni I study law and arts and I have one semester left before I graduate
  9. In January I will be going to India for three weeks, a trip I’m both incredibly excited and incredibly vaccine-ed up for
  10. I am growing beetroots and pumpkins in my backyard vegetable patch and remain optimistically convinced they will feed my family through the summer

Have more questions? Also a Babysitters Club fan? Want to talk about peanut butter? Let me know!
