So in the midst of the chaos that’s going on right now, I’m a few days late with my March resolution which is quite simply to exercise for 30 minutes, 4 times a week. So far I’m at 3x this week and it’s only Thursday so I think I’m gonna make it for the month.
February’s [...]

January’s resolution was awesome. I read a total of 4 books and 17 graphic novels over the month and that’s pretty damn high. I’m considering making reading 30 pages a day a year-long affair because I feel like the habit has been put in place!
Moving on to February – yes I’m going to cook once [...]

Super bad day at work, probably the worst of my oh so short career.
Thanks iammyy for being there for me.

I decided December’s resolution was way too passive and I’m going with a resolution to read more for January. The break during the last couple of weeks re-kindled my hunger for reading and I really want to maintain that steam this month.
So in January: 30 pages of something (books, graphic novels, e-books, whatever) a day [...]

I am an ardent PC fan but I use an iPhone (instead of Windows mobile)
I love my iPhone but I”ll never use a Mac
I love [...]

We can choose what to expose ourselves to.
We can choose what to be influenced by.
We can choose who we want to be (as opposed to it being pre-determined for us).
Do we?

I was in the car the other day when this song started playing on the radio. It’s exactly 10 years old (it was released in 1999), but I think it’s still as relevant as it was back then. Ah to think I was 15 in 1999.

I realise it’s 28 weeks in (just over half a year) that I’ve been blogging these Music Mondays segments, and I haven’t shared my favourite song of all time, by my favourite band of all time.
I referenced Something Corporate in Music Mondays IX (the one with Jack’s Mannequin), and I just thought I’d share this [...]
