Early Years

Lets see where to start this blog...

On a cold wintry day, in July 1985 i was born into this crazy world, not knowing what was to come and yearning to explore and learn what this life was all about. I was born in the most isolated capital city in the world, the furtherest point from any other capital city in the world. The home town was Perth.

I always lived a dramatic life even from the early years, now i think about it. At the tender age of 8 months old i decided to explore what was on the table while i was so hungry and waiting to be fed, i was in my high chair and stretched out onto the table and pulled the kettle that had just boiled onto myself and burnt most of my upper body, some places to the 3rd degree and i still have a patch under my chin that will not grow any facial hair.

I spent the next few weeks in hospital and would scream the place down every time they tried to do anything with me, i think this has led to my aversion of anything to do with doctors or hospitals unless i have to go.

As i continued to grow, i also had sicknesses that would cause me to have to spend more time in hospital. I had problems with my ears and i guess balance, although i dont remember much of that as i was to little and havent really asked about that part of my life. This led to me having more time in hospital probably another reason for not likeing doctors.

By the time i got into school age, although it felt longer i probably only spent a couple of months all up in hospitals. Once i got into school life, i seemed to become much healthier but i encountered other things that i would say were setbacks now that i look upon that time of my life.

I was a shy kid and didnt really like to try to much new and was always cautious about who i decided to spend time around. This led to me being quite an isolated kid, i forgot to mention earlier that I was an only child to and still am. Because of my isolation that i put myself into, i became a bit of a target for school yard bullies and had little or no friends. I used to try to act up in class to seek some attention and i would often end up in class detention or on some other kind of punishment from teachers.

So this is the start of my testimony, i feel i have so much more in me and this is only the tip of the iceberg in my journey, I will wrote more as I feel led, hope that you will continue to read in the future as i add more to this.
