Timeless

Time just keeps going on. For a long time. Possibly forever? Who knows? If there’s so much of it, why does it feel like there isn’t enough of it? The universe is timeless, but I am time-less, out of time, time poor, and without time.

Meet the Bloggers: Sascha

Here it is. A new post. My first post, in fact. I’ve been sitting here contemplating how best to introduce myself, which of course prompted nothing but silence in my mind. Truthfully, do any of us actually like introductions? For me, the word ‘introduction’ reminds me of those uncomfortable experiences: the first day of class […]

Broken Things

I recently invested in a road bike. I was allured by the fact that it would be cheaper than public transport, faster than walking, and healthier than driving my car. I’m not a super serious cyclist or anything, but the bike was getting me where I needed to go. I was riding on my nice […]

Brief Answers to the Big Questions – Book Review

Stephen Hawking is a huge role model of mine. Brief Answers to the Big Questions is the last book he wrote before he died, and while it certainly isn’t for everyone, it highlighted his brilliance and got me excited and hopeful for the future.

Winter is wonderful!

Winter is Coming, and I could not be happier. I love being able to snuggle up in a good blanket with a hot cup of tea, playing a game or reading a book (even if it is a textbook).

3- Sleep

I should be sleeping now, but I’m not. The reason is procrastination. More regularly than I’d like, I don’t get to sleep because I’ve put something off too long and have to get it done. I procrastinate on assignments a lot. I also do exactly the same thing for sleep itself. My thoughts go something like […]

There are tonnes of websites telling you how to be more organised. ‘Colour code your binders’, ‘use a whiteboard’, ‘take time just for YOU’. This stuff has never worked for me.
