Melbourne.
Last time I wrote I declared my awful realisation that I was
a city girl… I’ve realised since, true – maybe, not so true – possibly…BUT I’ve
figured out we’re all just a different kind of city which makes a different
spectrum of HIP…sters…
I’m a hipster…but who isn’t…you know doing hipster things…so
easily done when you’re living in the most liveable city in the world – enter MELBOURNE
#i<3melbourne o:p="">
So I’m sure we’ve established that there really is NO
definition of what a hipster is. Simply defined, I’ll say – hipster, hip-stir:
one who lives in Melbourne.
Every barista is a hipster, the barman the front office guy,
the previously defined ‘emo-kid’ behind the Coles register is a hipster… the
old homeless guy wearing the Salvos, funky boots and corduroy pants is hipster,
and that chick that wears glasses #geekischic is a hipster, but especially the
one who wears glasses and has 20/20 vision…the one without the lenses?…Pretty
much what I am saying is, NONE of us ARE hipster, but we ALL are actually...if
you got a touch o style, but still your own style… if you love the city life,
but love the uniqueness of doing your own thing, you love the ‘boutique’
things, you go to the markets, buy your food from the vegetable shop as opposed
to Coles… or you have your little coffee joint that’s NOT a Gloria Jeans or a Coffee
Club…you’re so NOT mainstream, and…well…you LIVE in Melbourne…#SOhipster
So in the past week in Melbourne, I’ve been free as a lark
(hipsters stay fresh by saying cool things like LARK and not bird)! And I’ve
well, been living the life of a Hipster… except, NOT making any money (I’m
pretty sure that is a category for a HARD CORE-Hipster). I’ve been on a
whirlwind food wine, beverages, and socialite gatherings, one could say I was
BINGING on the GOODLIFE….rooftops bars #nakedinthesky , beer gardens
#collegelawn #$3beers #ilovejamessquire . Trying out the latest coffee stops,
as they open every day on every corner there’s a new one here #2lostboys and an
old favourite there #tusk #2birdsonestone, all serving different coffees
#5seeds #stAli #dukes in different ways, #piccolos, #machiatto, #babycino, Magic coffees…#ristrettomeetspiccolomeetstulipcup.
Meeting fellow hipsters barmen that
are baristas that are working 3 jobs, waiter barista barman, (probably part of
a band, or owns a guitar?!) hanging out with those in the industry, meeting new
people #ESPRESSOMartinis, #espressomartinisAREmelbourne. Cheap happy hour beers at #HolyGrail, Vietnamese cuisine down the road, anyplace with
a good beat and even better vibe #HanoiHannah, going to new places with old
faces #touchwood #<3hospitality font="">
I’m so hipster I wake up in the morning and drink my green
juice #juicingisfun #ilovejuicing #greenjuicesforever #healthnut.
Eggs poached here bene there – can we please go back to
normal bene?! #hamhockisoverrated
#ham #hollandaise #softpoached #englishbreakfastmuffin

I guess what I’m trying to say is…there is so much going on in my head, as a new found hipster, I just want people to UNDERSTAND me…(enter the HASHTAG) I think hipsters are so misunderstood…. (not easily defined) the hipster generation, might be compared to the HASHTAG generations, we all saw the Justin Timberlake and Jimmy Fallon hashtag mockery, which I thought was GREAT… because now people can know your AFTER thoughts, when we are at a loss for sentences but not for words… so we’ve shortened all our words in the dictionary luv, lol, u, ur, etc…now we get to talking non-full sentences and just with thoughts or sarcasm? #iLOVEsarcasm
I reckon a good hipster…is whatever you want it to be #everyoneinmelbourneisahipster Melbourne IS hipster.
Hashtagging…makes my mind SPIN #toomanythoughtsinmyhead. Now our own thoughts really needn’t just be our own. #nowyouTOOcanhearmethink! :p

#imsooverhashtagging
Essentially My goal with this blog was to write… for fun and 'get amongst' the hashtagging... HASHTAG as much as I could #icouldhavetaggedALOTmore
