I used to believe that if I were to take things slowly and work my way through every single problem in my mind before putting it into practice. I would come up with all the possible outcomes and prepare contingencies for every obstacle that I would potentially face. Even in

It’s overwhelming coming back after a break. I’ve only had one day but it was enough to be flooded with a couple of ideas that I want to tackle. While having multiple ideas is fine, the problem is that most of them are still underdeveloped and I’m

Motivation sounds like a made-up word right? A term parents and teachers made-up to make kids feel guilty when they aren’t bothered to complete a task that you’ve given them. Even as an adult I feel the sting of it daily. An infinite resource that one is able

I watched the live-action adaptation of Initial D in the cinema recently. I came away with mixed feelings. I’m not the biggest Initial D fan out there but I have watched the anime in its entirety and I’m slowly making my way through the manga right now. One

A business trend that I’ve noticed F&B establishments using lately has been the concept of gambling. Perhaps the word “gambling” is a tad extreme? Gambling-like? I’m not sure. It’s the way that they skirt the grey-area of the definition that makes it hard to pin

I wonder how many of you, after reading the title of this piece of writing, started thinking that it would be about the show Wednesday? Unfortunately, or fortunately depending on how you feel about the show, I have yet to finish the second season but seeing the reception so far

Where Ordinary Becomes Remarkable.
It’s the month of October and for most of the internet the month of October is synonymous with the spooky season. Whether or not you celebrate Halloween or are a casual observer of the macabre, it’s difficult to avoid seeing the spooky season being celebrated through popular media.
I’ve had a driving license since Form 6. My parents wanted me to be independent and drive myself to school. What this means is that at this point — minus a couple of weeks when I’ve been on holiday — I’ve been driving daily for more than two decades.
I had a crisis of faith a couple of weeks ago. I was having a casual conversation with a fellow writer and I had the pleasure of learning that as a writer, I was severely inadequate. This person was younger than me and was expounding the fact that regardless of
Time is said to be the great equalizer. Cold and unbiased. Unfeeling to the plight of man as it marches on. Immutable, unflinching, fair. Everyone gets the same allotment of hours per day. To use as they see fit. A finite resource. More valuable than money or power. Once it’
Growing up as a millennial, I think one of the things that I was assured of was a straight path to success. Go to school, get good grades, coast for life. Who wouldn’t be seduced by the idea of having a stable, consistent job for 40 to 50 years
September was a rough month for me. I’m currently in between jobs and trying to figure out what to do next. When you’ve spent your life funneled from one situation to the next, you get comfortable with others making decisions for you. It feels safe and you absolve
Are you a writer? Why aren't you using Markdown yet?
“Why bother?” As an aspiring writer, it’s something I say to myself more often than I’d like as I sit at my desk each morning with a freshly brewed cup of coffee in my hand trying to figure out what to write for the day. Besides the obvious
