Life in general is throwing around all kinds of mixed emotions. Hang in there, some wonderful news coming soon for the true fans in our tribe. Despite a rollercoaster of a week (and the best hasn't even started yet), I managed to knock out a post each day. I won't let a day slip, I [...]
It's probably one of the only times I've ever lied, and really stuck to my story. Inspite of being questioned over and over, and the plausibility of my story being so far fetched, I still didn't waiver. If I could make a guess, I'd say there were around 5 - 6 cubicals in that toilet, [...]
Dear Journal (and blogtober readers), It's appears, to my surprise, that people enjoy reading these occasional short journal entries. I mean, I like reading about other people's lives, so I guess it makes sense people might enjoy reading about mine. There is something interesting about seeing how and what other people do. It's the curiousity [...]
Dear Journal (and blogtober readers), After months of burnout, after months of waiting till tomorrow, it's finally the day, the last day of the work week in just 12hrs and then it's a whopping month off. I plan to spend time with the new baby coming soon, with family, time for reading/writing, and of course, [...]
Every year it was the same handful of kids, on rotation, that would get that award, the big one, in front of the entire school. It wasn't a particularly fancy looking thing either, printed portrait on white A3 80gsm paper, as if it had just come from a photocopier. The stickers on it jazzed it [...]
Dear Journal (and blogtober readers), Today marks a victorious day. It's taken only ten years to do it (sarcasm intended), but my student loan is paid off! What. A . Relief. It sure does feel like atleast Wednesday. I don't like wishing away time but the end of this work week couldn't come quick enough. [...]
I guess there will always be that one person that will take advantage of your kindness, or even mistaken it for weakness. But for the most part, no, I don't think you can be too empathetic, at least not in the long term. Looking back, I find it hard to believe I was once so [...]
Who can believe that we are at the end of week two of #blogtober already? In fact, almost half way through October! Again, I'm thrilled to have connected with so many unbelievable bloggers, from all walks of life. I recently stumbled across a tweet that asked about the backgrounds of different bloggers, and to my [...]
Dear Journal (and #blogtober readers), I hesitated at the thought of getting up too early to do it, but after a fair sleep I awoke, had breakfast, checked social and ventured out the front yard. I cut the lawns after all of this rain and fixed up some of the garden. Meditation has been enjoyable [...]
Being naive, it's easy for us to think that growing fast is the right way, most likely through fear of missing out, that if we don't get to the throne first, that another content creator will beat us to it instead. It couldn't be so further from the truth. I'm so fortunate, so fortunate... to [...]
