The 1975

Hii,



I wanted to write a quick post about the awesome night that I had last night. As you can see by the photo above I went to see The 1975 at the Hordern Pavilion in Sydney. I'm sure you know who i'm talking about but if you don't, they are a band from England.
The 1975.
For me The 1975 has been about the music, as soon as on of my friends introduced me to their music I instantly loved it, even though their music is quite different to the music that I usually listen to, I think thats why I liked it so much because it was different type of music that I like. When we got to the Hordern it was so packed! I knew that the band had became quite popular in Australia in the past year or two but in my head I don't know why but I didn't picture so many people.

After a half an hour of waiting in line we were finally in the venue my friends and I were so excited and we were on the look out for our other group of friends, when we found them the were just as excited as we were. After about half an hour of chatting about how pumped we were to hear the brilliant Matt Healey perform, the lights started to dim down and there was a big rumble coming from the stage. everyone started cheering and clapping. It was so exciting, suddenly the stage lights shot on and The 1975 were on stage! we couldn't see much as we were more near the back then the front, but we weren't really fussed by it, yeah it would of been nice if we were a bit closer to see them perform but we did manage to get glimpses of Matt. I think we all were just really happy to hear the music live and share that experience with other people.


All the songs were great but my overall top four songs were:
1. Sex
2. Menswear
3. Chocolate
4. Robbers

Its really cool that The 1975 are liked by people that are all different ages, I think last night the people there were aged from fourteen- twenty-five. Not many bands can say that we are like by both young teens and adults.

Overall it was a fun experience with all my friends that I won't forget.

One of my favourite places in the world..


Hii,

My grandparents on my dad's side of the family own a beach house located in a little country/beach town called Gerringong. I want to share this on my blog because it is one of my favourite places in the world. Ever since I could remember this special house was a place where the family could catch up whether it is for two nights or seven nights over the Christmas break. I know this sounds quite dramatic but even the smell of the house reminds me of my family. This beach house is so close to my heart, I think the reason is because I have been going there since I was a tiny baby. A you can see below, theres little me on the left and my sister on the right.
My sister and I about 15 years ago at the beach house.

 I was there not long ago for a little less than a week and like always I have the best time with all my cousins, uncles, aunties, my grandparents an my dad. I am always amazed how we fit everyone into this little house as there is only three bedrooms but never the less we all fit even if we do have to set up caravans in the backyard.


My favourite thing about being at the beach house is that there are so many people that I love in the one place, and even though you might be woken up by the sound of crying, screaming or giggles from your little cousins at 6.00 am every morning, you know its worth it because everyone being in the same place doesn't happen that often, not in my family anyway.

The beach house is a place for a little bit of everything, you can choose to relax, shop, surf, swim, go for a bike ride or play any type of sport in the back yard, when I was younger I remember playing in the backyard with my sister all day long, the ideas of games were endless probably because at the time I thought it was the size of a football field. Now being older, I love watching my little cousins play in that backyard the way I used to and occasionally joining in with them if they need another player on their team.

I love how we go for walks with my cousins far ahead in the distance on their scooters, skate boards or bikes, then, watching them climb the big beautiful tree that we always pass on our way to the 'magic bridge' to feed the ducks.

 I feel so grateful to have such a special house were I go and forget my worries and have fun with my lovely family. It always has been my one of my favourite places in the world and I think it always will be.

Hello 2015



Hii,

Since its a new year, I wanted to post something about what I want to achieve in 2015. I know with me, I never really seem to stick to a lot of my new years resolutions that I have said in the past. So for this year i'm going to set myself more goals that I know I can reach. Here are a few that I want to achieve this year:

1. Keep a positive attitude- I think this one is quite important and I really want to focus on it this year. I know it can be hard to be positive all the time when things don't go to plan but I think I have to focus on what I do have rather then what I don't have, and when I look at it from perspective I really don't go without much.

2. Get a part time job- You might think this one is easy to achieve but unfortunately in the past for me it has been quite a challenge. to tell you the truth, not being able to find or get casual work has been one of the low points of 2014. But never the less i'm going to keep trying and hopefully i'll find some work.

3. Start driving- I know what your thinking "What are you doing woman?! you could have you Ps right now!" I know I know your right. But like the one above i've been finding this a bit of a challenge and it just hasn't been one of my priorities. but this year I think i'm ready, i'm gonna face my fear and start driving.

4. Being more active- This one always finds its way on my new years resolution list every year, but like always I start the year really well with so much exercise- running, sit-ups, push ups you name it. but it always seems to slip further and further down the list throughout the year until I forget about it or I don't have the motivation. So hopefully this year I'll keep at it.

5. Start something new- With this blog i'm guess i'm starting something new which means that i've already achieved one of my New Years resolutions wooyeah!! The challenge now is that I stick with this and work really hard on it so I can look back on it in 2016!

As well as having a good list of achievable goals, for me, this year is going to be a really eventful year which i'm both scared and excited for what ahead. This year I'm going to:

- Turn 18
- Complete my final year at school FOREVER
- Graduate from high school
- Complete my HSC
- Complete my certificate II at TAFE
- Go to schoolies
- Say goodbye to all my school friends
And in the middle of all of this I might be taking a cheeky trip to Fiji with the family, hehe!

Its going to be a very full on and busy for me, but I think i'm ready to give it all I have! If your thinking "Why has she started a blog in one of the busiest years ever?" the answer to that is I think by creating this blog it will help me it someway survive this year by writing things down so I remember everything that has happened in this eventful year ahead.

Bring on 2015!!

A little about me

Hiii,  I'm Kiara, but most call me Kiki, I'm 17 and I live in Sydney Australia. 

For the past year i've been wondering what it would be like to start my very own blog, I've always thought it would be really awesome to have my own little space on the internet where I could express my thoughts, feelings and experiences. for a while now i've been really tossing up whether I could actually bring myself to take the leap and start creating a blog. these thoughts of mine became a little more serious when for Christmas I was very lucky and received a MacBook Air, for me this was a pretty good sign to take that leap and create a account on Blogger. 

On this blog i'm going to be sharing my personal thoughts, feelings and experiences. I'm also going to be posting about things I love and enjoy doing. I want this space to have a happy and positive vibe to it so I can look back and have a smile on my face while reading past blog posts. 

I'm very new to this blogging thing so I guess i'll be learning what works and what doesn't as I go. I'm both scared and excited about creating something online as I haven't done anything like this before. I'm going to try my best to make this blog as exciting, fun, interesting and helpful as I possibly can!
