Some boyfriends get their girlfriends jewellery, chocolates and any other cookie-cutter gifts for their birthdays. Sure they mean well, but it’s not really thoughtful to me. I told my own boyfriend this and instead of arguing and contesting this idea, like all of my past boyfriends, he said “I’ll get you the most original, thoughtful gift in the world.” And

I’m a strong, proud, independent, hard-working career woman. I’m the CEO of one of the biggest companies in Australia. I’m admired, intimidated, feared. I love my job.

Stockings! Why the hell do we women need them? They get runs in them, they tear, they smell after a long day of running around the office, they’re extremely tight, especially if you’re like me who forgot to read the size because I was in a hurry buying them to replace a pair that tore when I got dressed!
