I am currently studying a Bachelor of Social Science, majoring in Psychology. I have One and a half years to go, and cant wait to get out there and work. My aim when i started University was to finish with a Masters in Clinical Psychology, and open my own clinic. But recently i have had a change of heart, and want to go out and work, and experience the real world, before i tie myself down with my own practice. This will have to wait till im older.
I have also completed a certificate 3 in Community Services at Tafe, and have my Mental Health first aid certificate.
I am currently involved with St Vincent de Paul, and go on Buddies days for disadvanteged children. My aim is to get involved with there Homeless program in the near future. I want to do more volunteering, but its just finding the time away from my studies.
My aim in life has never been, and never will be to own an expensive home, an expensive car or earn hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. I want to live a simple life, helping others in any way possible.People today are so wrapped up in their own lives, their own material possesions that they have forgotten about the most important thing in their lives PEOPLE! I belive we were all put here to serve one another, and this is how i intend to live my life. I would feel incomplete if this was not how i lived.
All my life i have wanted to change the world, feed the poor in disadvanteged countries, help everyone in need. I still want to do this but have realised that you dont need to change world all at once or in a massive way. Just help someone who has dropped something, help someone who doesnt know how to work something, help someone who needs 5 cents or just say hello to your neighbour. Compassion is what the world needs, not possesions. Compassion is what we will die and be remembered for, not for the car we drove.
This is my aim in life, and if everyone lived like this we would already be changing the world, one day at a time. We are not superheroes, and there are so many problems with this world that we cant possibly understand, but we can try. No matter how big or small, compassion goes a long way!

You might be thinking hey her action has changed. I really hasnt it was all along about inequality, this has just become more specific, i want to tackle the inequalities the aged, ill and their carers they face!
My actnow incubator time has come to an end, and i have learned so much, which you can read under my opinions. My overall action is going to be creating a service for the aged, ill and their carers. However i need to learn more first so my action is volunteering at an aged home. I am learning so much and for my overall action to come true, i need to take little actions, and this will be my action ( hahaha confusing i know). Please read my opinion peices, and interview and reflection story. And i will keep in contact and let you know how my action is going!
Finished making my posters and brochures on the inequlaities we face in Australia, and started putting them up around the University, and local schools, and my brothers schools. Put them also in all my extended families shops. ( They all own take aways funnily enough), and also gave brochures to my mum to hand out when she vistis her clients. So far i am getting great feedback on them, and started to think well once these people read them, and if they want to make a difference where do they go from there? Then i thought about making my own webpage on this issue, but it is just finding the time. But so far things are going great.
Hey i went to my local Volunteer centre on the weekend, and have a found a great volunteering postion. I am becoming a mentor for kids that have lost their way at local highschools! I am so excited to help these kids reach their full potentials!
And for my ActNow vision i am in the process of creating pamphlets outlining Australian Inequality! So once they are done i will start handing them out!!
Didn't mean to write that i cant stand these people meaning the women from the previous blog. I can't stand guys who take advantage of young insecure women!
I hate it when a young woman, belives that no-one will ever want them as a girlfriend! And when that someone comes along, they hold onto him and give him everything he wants, even though he makes them unhappy! Wake up young women of Australia, we are worth so much more than that! Dont be with someone for the sake of having a partner! Be with someone cause they treat u with respect and want more from you then your body!
Don't you just hate people who don't believe in you! Like careers advisors at my university! They think you have to be Einstein to be at University, but dont belive in people who are determined to finish their degree! I'm sorry but those people suck! Instead of saying you cant do this or that, they should be saying you can do anything you put your mind to!
