5 Days of Meditation: Day 2 – Self Love
Today left me feeling worse than yesterday, in terms of health at least. I didn’t sleep that well last night and am definitely not feeling 100 percent. I just took a fat cat nap, which almost persuaded me to remain on my couch and miss work. There are worse things that could happen… On the […]
Learning to See Potential in the Unknown
It’s strange, looking back on a life you had every intention of returning to. It almost feels like someone else’s now. A 9-5 job, full suit (most likely), long commutes, 10 year plans. Some people find comfort in those things, and so did a part of me. It’s kind of like a question stuck on […]
Escaping Reality in the Daintree Rainforest

The ‘G’ Word
As much as I hate to talk about it, graduation is upon us (the olden seniors) and I’m not entirely sure how I feel about it. For some people it’s the end, and for others it’s just the beginning. Ending undergrad and starting another four years somewhere else. Entering the workforce. Saying goodbye to the […]
