When Are Ya Comin’ Home?

A question I get asked at least twice a week. I’ve been living here in the Netherlands for the best part of 9 months now, still loving it albeit a little homesick from time to time. Aren’t I lucky to live in the age of technology where ringing home can be done while I’m out

Macra. The Who, What, Where and Why?

Anyone who knows me well knows i’m mad about Macra. Who? Macra Na Feirme started in Kildare in 1944. Taken from the Macra Website: “It incorporates the overall purpose of the organisation, it identifies the key work which it undertakes and it refers to its key target groups which are designated as ‘young people who

Good intentions

I started this year off with good intentions. Last year was shite. 1 star out of 5, Would not recommend. I made a promise to myself that “2020 would be the year of Shauna Convery” a promise I fully intend to keep. Unfortunately life doesn’t just reset itself at the beginning of a new year.

It’s Mad How Quickly Things Can Change

Music Makes Me Happy

Thing’s Change but Music will always be deadly. My last blog post my about My Mental Health was well received by my friends and family. It was a serious one, not that I want all my blog posts to be super serious but the whole point in having a blog is to have a place

My Mental Health

Mental Health is mental isn’t it? It’s something I have been very vocal about on my social media. Everyone has had their own struggles and experiences with mental health problems. The Lord Jaysus above in the sky sure as hell knows I’ve had mine! Mental health problems have followed me round for most of my

Who is Shauna Convery?

Shauna is me, I’m Shauna. I’m and im not 100% sure who I am, I feel like i’m at a crossroads in my life. I think some pretty big decisions need to be made, some pretty big changes need to happen. I always said ill give myself til 25 then ill start worrying, well its

Everything Hurts

Everything HurtsI’m Turning 25 in a few days. I know i said the exact same thing at the exact same time last year, but i have never been so angry about a birthday in all my life! 25… Quarter of a CENTURY old! I’m not going to lie I have never seen myself making it

Whoa

Whoa.. That’s all I really have to say at the moment. Amsterdam nearly killed me but it was worth every dang second! In other news I had to get 2 biopsies on my leg last week. Doctors think I might have HSP. It’s a form of vasculitis that was caused by a bacterial throat infection
