Unhinged with Phoebe Parsons

Thou shalt remember, that being an adult, is mostly just googling how to do stuff. There comes a time in everyones life, when you'll find yourself looking for an adult... but then you realise, you are an adult. So you look for an older adult, someone successfully adulting, you know... an adultier adult.

When it comes to advice... I'm no Yoda... Which is why it always comes as a surprise to me when you guys slide into my DM's and ask for my advice. Up until now, the only advice people have ever come to me for, is when they want to know what NOT to do... But lately, I've been absolutely inundated with questions from you guys, so this week I've decided to mix things up a little bit and answer them r...

Thou shalt remember that jumping to conclusions, burns relationships... not calories  If jumping to conclusions was an olympic sport, I'd be a gold medalist. I don't know whether it's my creatively wired brain, my overtly dramatic predisposition or the simple fact that I'm a female, that makes my habitual response to any and every uncertainty, a melodramatic one.

Thou shalt remember, the best things in life, are not free. There are two kinds of people in the world... those who stick to a budget... and those who suck at a budget. No second guessing which category I fall into...

Thou shalt remember, that even though February 14 is a date, it doesn't mean you'll get one. Whether you have a special someone, or a not so special someone, Valentine's Day gives you all the feelz... but unlike rom coms would have us believe, it's not always the stretchy heart feelz...

Thou Shalt remember, that there is no force equal, to that of a hormonal woman. If the Spice Girls left us anything (you know, aside from a string of timeless tunes), it was the legacy of girl power. They say pain turns into power, right? And for women, pain is a normal part of life. Period pain, menstrual cramps, pap smears, childbirth, waxing, bloating, PMS, stilettos, laser hair removal and g-s...

Thou shalt remember that if you didn't 'gram it, it didn't happen. Navigating your way through social media is a minefield. One minute, you're posting an innocent Flashback Friday from that girls trip you took to Bali, and the next, you've suddenly gone into battle with the slew of messages that have just aggressively slid right on into your DM's. Welcome to the #firstworldproblemsof2018 
&nbs...

Thou shalt remember that a new year, doesn't always mean a new you. And just like that, another year has come and gone, and at the risk of sounding like a total drama queen... thank.god. No - wait, that's not totally fair and if you're listening 2017, you weren't a complete bust. You just had really high highs, and really low lows. Wouldn't you agree girls?

It's Phoebe, your resident twenty something Train Wreck. Buckle up, because I'm back for season 3, and I'm bringing my girl squad with me... Coming Tuesday January 23.

Thou shalt remember, that there are ways you can outsmart the the silly season. This chick loves Christmas. I literally have zero shame in admitting that I live for December. Allegedly that's the only time it's socially acceptable to listen to Christmas Carols without setting your Spotify to private... But seriously though, nothing beats the feeling of finally being able to take your next level ch...

Thou Shalt remember that nothing worth having comes easy... especially when it comes to fitness. Being fit is pretty great. From the mood-boosting endorphins that leave you happier than a clam at high tide to the unwavering sense of accomplishment you get from totally slaying your sweat sesh, it's true when they say nothing feels as good as fit does. But you know what else is true? Fit Girl P...

Thou shalt remember, that sometimes you have to fake it to make it. The scariest part about becoming an adult, is realising that nobody actually knows what they're doing, and everyone is just winging it.

Thou shalt remember, that google is not a real doctor. The true mark of adulthood, isn't getting married or buying a house... it's scheduling your own medical appointments. Whether it's medical, dental, optical or chiropractal (I made that last one up), there'll come a time in your life, when your parents will wash their hands of the responsibility, leaving you to fend for yourself for your sick l...

So, I think it's only fair that I'm completely honest with you. I had big plans for this weeks episode. But something happened......

Thou shalt remember, that good things don't come to those who wait.. they come to those who work their asses off. My life is kinda like that Rhianna song... you know the one... work work work work work work... and the rest I don't understand. But I'm not complaining about it. I love my job... I'm proud of my job... and you know what, I worked bloody hard for my job! But I'm not even going to try a...

Thou shalt remember that beauty is pain... literally. Ahhhh, that old adage we all tell ourselves every time we waddle away from a waxing appointment... a little red, a little raw and a little sore. When it comes to beauty, there are few things that require as much time, money, effort or sacrifice as hair maintenance.

Thou shalt remember, that what happens overseas, doesn't always stay overseas. They say there's no better way to change your perception of the world than to travel... and I 100 per cent agree. But in saying that, sometimes the enlightening moment isn't as soul shaking as the one Julia Roberts had in Eat Pray Love... and if you're anything like me, it's simply discovering that your Train Wreck tend...

Thou shalt remember, that every decision has a consequence. According to the Dictionary, a decision is a conclusion or resolution reached after consideration. I mean - I can only speak for myself here, but I'd personally use the term "consideration", lightly. Whether it's exhaustion, alcohol, lack of technical depth or just a complete lack of interest - there's usually some kind of impairment, tha...

Thou Shalt remember that what happens in the kitchen, doesn't always stay in the kitchen. When it comes to cooking, I'm no Nigella... and my culinary capabilities are pretty much capped at boiling eggs.

Thou Shalt remember, you are what you eat... or, what you don't eat! Dieting is easy... it's just like riding a bike. But the bike is on fire. And the ground is on fire. And everything is on fire because you're in hell. Yet for reasons that will never be known, we keep on going back for more...

In Season 1, Phoebe confessed what made her a Twenty Something Train Wreck. From dating, horror housemates, fiscal failures, breakdowns and her trouble with cars....she revealed a lot! Season 2 is out October 3 with more confessions. #trainwrecktuesday

Thou Shalt be afraid to catch feels...Dating in your twenties is a tough gig. One minute you’re ordering the guy you’ve been ‘seeing’ for a year and a half a t-shirt from the place you went on your very first date for his birthday, and the next, you're returning it after things have come to an abrupt and unexplained end, leaving you wondering if the last 15-months were all in your head? Welcome to...

Thou shalt remember that ignorance is not always bliss. And this is especially true when it comes to automotive matters. Something I've learnt the hard way, over and over and over and over again.

Thou Shalt remember that home is where the crazies are…and sometimes you’re one of them. Among the many trials and tribulations we face in our twenties, one of the toughest and trickiest things to navigate your way through is the holy mess of housemates. Seriously, why don't they teach you how to cohabit in school? It would have been a learning far more valuable than algebra – my life already has...

Thou shalt not live beyond one’s means. Like most twenty-somethings, I too have a credit card – well, if I’m getting technical… credit cardS – plural. An acquisition that turned out to be a weapon of mass destruction. Honestly, how can one little piece of plastic cause so much pandemonium?
