Last week I didn’t write in my blog at all. I meant to – I just didn’t. I’m a bit disappointed with myself. You see, I was doing my best to commit to writing two posts a week, and for the first time since I began this blog earlier in the year, I didn’t. I [...]

I moved into two share houses on and around uni over the next year-and-a-half where I cooked two minute noodles or – when I wanted to get really fancy – some pasta for dinner.

Image sourced from ivorymix.com Hello all, Today’s post is going to be a short one. For the second time in two weeks, I’ve fallen sick. My head hurts, my throat aches and all I want to do is sleep. It’s not a lot of fun – though I’m sure that’s a rather obvious statement. Although [...]

In a post I wrote a few weeks ago, I gave some tips on how to deal with people who think they know everything. However, in the process [...]
Picture sourced from Ivory Mix. Many people assume that participation awards cause a sense of entitlement and a poor work ethic – but what if this isn't true? The generation I belong to is constantly being criticised. We’ve been called entitled, lazy, self-absorbed – and those are the amongst the nicer terms I’ve heard. We [...]
