Step in to the galaxy of the unknown, the galaxy inside my mind.

Double lives and hidden agendas... 


A creative ploy in to a more interesting life or a tangled web of lies and deceit?
If you had the chance, to live a double life - would you?
Let me clarify - throughout life we are constantly learning new things and decifering our likes and dislikes to eventually shape up to be this person we have created.. We are entirely in control of the process of creating our lives.
Some, chose the path of self desire. Tailoring their life in a way that gives them maximum enjoyment and fulfillment - neglecting how others in society view them. I like to think of myself as one of those people, but lets face it - we are always going to care what other people think of us. But the next step is deciding on how you are going to let that affect you.
I find myself quite often being judged by others, such is life but I always try to take a mental stand and think "who are they to judge me, I'm having fun and that is all that matters". Unfortunately, this is not always easy though.
Swinging back on topic - what if you had the option to change who you are at will. For example - today I could be "Tessa - the clumsy and slightly ditsy girl with the crazy and sometimes intense charismatic attitude who laughs at irrelevant things" but then tonight I could be "Claire - the promiscuous bitch with an attitude, breaking hearts across the city (ie. the anti-Tessa).
I hold the power, yet, never would I take on the responsibility of making a dramatic 180 flip of my life, even if only for a short amount of time.

There are people that do find some sense of excitement similar to adrenalin by doing things like this though. What sparks my curiosity though is - are these people shameless liars?
How far is to far? People are meeting and associating with society as someone that they are not.

This confuses me immensely.. and then arises the question - if I could be a different person, would I?
No. Not a chance.
It took me a while to come to this conclusion .. living in a modern society fueled by greed and always having that lingering vision of a better life, sure it would be nice to live in luxury or even be able to buy wine that doesn't contain the shitty left over grapes and sells at $2 a bottle, but I chose this life. I took a risk, moving my entire life from one end of Australia to the other and you know what - I am living a regret free life.
To conclude this subject - we should embrace the freedom to be whoever we want to be. Don't let social status or sometimes even common life practice keep you down. 
Take risks! We only live once.

On a lighter note, my career as a free-lance journalist took another step today. I like saying that, its makes me feel a little spesh when in reality I am a student working in a call center that writes blog entries and news articles in my spare time. Anyways! I had my first hands on experience in radio presentation today! My fellow classmates and I headed to the radio studio to suss it all out and record some demos.
Might I say - It was a blast! It has really sparked my enthusiasm towards this industry. I know this is my life calling, I just have to get through this dodgy waiting period before my career takes flight. Patience is key, not to mention I am still young! I am trying to embrace my chance to have fun while I can because shit will get SERIOUS before I know it! So, in regards to my demo - I have attatched the link to the podcast bellow. My ramble is in the approx 3 mins in, touching on the subject of awkward public transport encounters!
For those who don't know me - Hi, I am Tessa and you will hear my annoying voice say things such as "that last song was gypsy and the cat with piper song, you are listening to Tessa and Ayla on SYN"
After you hear that, you will be able to pick up when its me talking. I have one of those voices that you can hear from a mile away and never forget. I often get told I have a big mouth, I assume this isn't referring to the physical size of my mouth.


DEMO 1 - Screen and Media Class. "How Awkward!"

"I highly recommend you take a look!" - This Asian Man

Okie doke ladies and gents! Before I bid you a kind farewell, I wish to insert my thoughts in to your brains. What do ya'll have to look forward to?! 

• A review of the play "Boy Girl Wall" - google it!
• Possibly an audio interview with local Melbourne based comedian. 
• More audio demos - more excuses for me to talk! 
• & Other amazing things that I can't think of right now!

I wish you all the best with your life endeavors or crazy antics, and remember - don't touch pigeons or you will get a disease. 

Love always,

The amazing Tessa Rose <3
