Why I Like Biographies

-
Hello,

I love to read. I have a large collection of books and have read a lot of them two or three times. My favourite books to read are biographies. Here I will tell you why.

Everyday I am surrounded by people who inspire me - family, friends, co-workers and people I meet. I have a big interest in people's life stories and draw inspiration from them. That is why I love to read biographies.

I like to read about how celebrities and people who are in the public eye came to be where they are today. Reading about what their childhood was like, how they grew up and things they have done and experienced interests me.

I especially love reading about people who have had tough lives and been through many obstacles but have come out on top and are now very successful in their careers and are leading happy lives. Those stories really inspire and motivate me to work hard to achieve what I want to and never give up.

Below is a list of my favourite autobiographies and biographies. Maybe you would like to check them out some time.

Grace, Gold & Glory - Gabrielle Douglas


Waiting To Be Heard - Amanda Knox



Kris Jenner and All Things Kardashian


A Stolen Life - Jaycee Dugard


Born To Be King - Prince William


Have a great weekend everyone!

Vishi xoxo

                                           Photo credit to @Justicecrewofficial Instagram Justice Crew are a dance and music group who won Australia's Got Talent in 2010 and went on to release many amazing songs including number one hits Boom Boom and Que Sera . After their tour in 2019, they took a long break and now they are back!  I have been a huge fan of them since the beginning and have been to a lot of their shows, so when they announced they were performing a show in February, of course I was excited and attended with my friend. There was a huge crowd there to see them, which surprised a few people, including maybe the guys themselves. After six years, they probably felt rusty, but they were actually amazing as always. It was so cool to see them on stage again and here all the hit songs the number ones and  Everybody. It's so crazy how even now, after six year...

Time To Break Away

In 2018, I introduced you all to an incredible singer from St Lucia, D.B.L, who I found while scrolling through Instagram. I have quietly kept up with all his news, he has done so many amazing things. In October 2025, D.B.L released a single called Time To Break Away and, in this post, I am going to share my thoughts on the song and video with you.  Time To Break Away by D.B.L Image from Genius Time To Break Away explores the themes of rebellion, overcoming struggle and escaping negativity and talks about serious conflict we see happening in the world. Listening to the lyrics makes me feel emotional, and I think everyone who listens to it will feel something.  "You have to go to sleep with one eye open The rebel’s on the prowl to search for victim You got to know the rules or else it’s the end Now look at what’s around you all the bloodshed The propaganda spread the lies that dem spread The bigotry deceit to hide the problem Hypocrisy me me can’t understand I think about the c...

Reflective Essay - Michael

I’ve been a huge fan of the Jackson Five, Michael Jackson, and the entire Jackson family for as long as I can remember. Their music has been woven through my childhood, my teens, and my adult life. I was twenty when Michael passed in 2009, and like so many others, I still remember exactly where I was when the news broke. I watched every tribute, interview, documentary, and the public memorial. I’ve listened to their music, watched their reality shows, and read their books. So walking into the cinema to watch Michael wasn’t just going to see a movie. It felt like returning to a story I’ve carried with me almost my whole life. I saw the film on the Saturday of the ANZAC Day long weekend. The shopping centre wasclosed except for the cinema, which gave the whole morning a calm, almost sacred feeling. I was the first person to walk into VMax Cinema 1. Originally, I had booked my usual back‑row seat, but while waiting outside, something made me change my mind. I wanted to be closer. I ...
