I just love all the amazing different things you can do in Melbourne. You never run out of options, there are always choices galore. If you can think of something out there in the great wide world you want to do, whatever the activity, I promise you it either already goes on, or someone out there is think of a way to make it happen.

While I totally get that this can seem pretty overwhelming to some, for me it’s a blessing. I’m one of those people that always needs to be doing something, that always needs some new hobby under their sleeve, and I love that living here gives me the opportunity to dabble in pretty much everything. My latest obsession, I hear you ask? Makeup.

I know, I know, some out there among you may attach a stigma to this gendered art, but allow me to speak my piece. I don’t care what you say, painting someone else’s face is a heck of a lot of fun. It just is. In fact, I’m loving it so much at the moment that I am seriously considering doing a professional makeup course. Well, maybe not ‘seriously’ seriously, but I’m at least considering it as an option. Just a part of my quest to become the ultimate Jack of all trades, I guess. While doing something super fun at the same time. In that regard at least, I’d be killing two birds with one stone.

But at the same time, don’t take me even a little bit at my word. While I may not be signed up and ready for the semester to begin, I am considering it. I’ve had a bit of a look at the different makeup courses offered in Melbourne and have jotted down a couple of names. I’ve talked to a couple of different people about it. This is something I might really want to do, so why not pursue it?
