I don’t believe in new years resolutions. By my thinking, if you want to do something, why not just do it? What difference does it make if it’s the first of January or the 20th of September? Approximately none, that’s how much. The only difference is that you and a million other people will likely … Continue reading
I wrote a post a while back about work and life falling out of balance, about how the scales had tipped sharply in the favour of work and time for myself was almost non-existant. I also wrote about addressing the problem next week. But guess what? I didn’t. Surprise, surprise. Not only was I working … Continue reading
There was a time in my life when I thought that I would never stop studying. Any spare moment was spent buried in textbooks, or feeling guilty because I was preoccupied with procrastinating instead. I can assure you that my room/house had never been so clean. I finished high school and went straight into three … Continue reading

Today’s guest post is from Tanny, an Aussie who just happened to end up in Arctic Greenland. Being in a long-distance international relationship can suck, simple as that.

Information is constantly at our finger tips. Having a heated debate at a dinner party? No longer do we have to agree to disagree, we just … Continue reading
Buying property is always a hot topic at dinner parties. As humans, we can’t help but measure our progress compared to others, just to see if we are keeping up with the Joneses. So the latest news in Sydney’s expensive property market for parents to buy a million-dollar property for their children has the city … Continue reading
According to the Oxford Dictionary the definition of quit is “to leave a place, usually permanently”. In the real world, we tend to use the term “quit” a little more liberally. You can quit smoking (positive), quit whining (also positive), and quit your job (could go either way). Why is it then, that we so … Continue reading
As I was riding my bike through the streets of Paris one night a few weeks ago, my path was interrupted by a large group of people spilling out onto the street. Further inspection revealed metal barriers and paparazzi style cameras. Ah, must be a celebrity. The first time I saw a group of people … Continue reading
