Into the wild – Book Review

[Warning; does contain description of the story] Into the wild by Jon Krakauer I think most people have at least heard of, and probably seen, the movie based on the same story. I myself watched the movie some 8-10 years ago with my friend Emma. I recently chatted with a California based friend, Ivy, who […]

The reason

And no, this isn’t meant to be a trip down memory lane with Hoobastank’s song (even though I have a perfectly clear memory of a Sing star competition years and years ago, when the grand finale was with this song). This morning I woke up, feeling rather not so normal, with a headache and just […]

Coffee addition

For the past 6 years, give or take, I’ve had a cup of coffee at least once a day. Usually in the morning. But as a nurse working 3 shifts, the general rule is within 1 hours from waking up. General rule; the sooner after waking up, the better. I prefer mornings, because then “it’s […]

Writing Challenges

It’s plain to see, but, I haven’t been doing very well with writing. I believe it’s because I have too high standards on myself. It needs to be this good text, nice edited pictures and triple checked for spelling and grammar mistakes. High standards are good to have, but at this point, it’s keeping me […]
