Closing Out 2015.

I had originally thought that I wanted to cover a variety of topics for this year’s blog posts… but the more I thought about it, the more I figured I should keep things concise. If there is one thing that I have learned this year – it’s that sometimes less is more. Don’t get me […]

Nate.

So, this isn’t a topic that I have delved too much into this year but I felt it was long overdue. Here goes. Who was Nate? There are a ton of words you could use to describe him. I don’t think it does justice to try and use just a few adjectives though, so I […]

Another Year.

2015 – The year I had hoped would be radically different from 2014. In some ways it was, in some ways it wasn’t. As I approach my 26th spin around the sun (as my good friend Nate used to say), I wanted to take a look back and discuss a few things that I haven’t […]

Tupac Shakur.

I was trying to think of an appropriate title for this post, but it seems only fitting that the name of Tupac Shakur should imply enough importance as it is. 19 years ago today, the world lost a soul who was wise beyond his years. Tupac was not only at the top of the rap game in […]

Broadening Your Horizons

So the title may be pretty vague… what am I referring to exactly? What should you be broadening? In short – anything and everything that you have the chance to. I have to admit that I have lived a pretty sheltered life, and as a result that has made me somewhat narrow sighted. At one […]

A Tricky Concept Called Independence

So I was going to start this post off with the definition of Independence… but it keeps redirecting me back to the word Independent. Let’s go with that then, according to Merriam-Webster: Independent – not requiring or relying on something else adjective – in·de·pen·dent For a long time, I thought I was pretty independent due to the nature […]

A letter to my younger self

Let’s just get this out of the way now: things don’t get easier. You currently spend your days going to school, eating junk food, and then coming home to watch Pokemon. Sometimes you make things interesting by adding in some gaming to your TV sessions. You don’t have a care in the world and your biggest […]

The Theory of Everything

So I honestly wasn’t sure if I was going to write on this blog anymore… but I’ve just been inspired so here it goes. If you haven’t heard of The Theory of Everything yet – it’s a biography about the famous physicist Stephen Hawking and his rise to prominence in the world of science and […]

Concluding 2014

I did have a third category of discussing things that I’ve learned from being in an advertising career for the last three years, but as I am currently an active job seeker – I will refrain from any comments that could be misconstrued at the moment. I will definitely touch on this topic eventually! In […]

Friendship

What a year it has been for friendships… let’s start with the harsh fact that I realized this year: life happens. Well that’s quite a generic statement, what do you mean Tyrell? What I mean is a few things. This year I had two of my closest friends move to other countries where a “short” flight […]
