On (my) personality
As I have been aging, maturing, etcetera, I have always noticed people tend towards certain things they enjoy, often my left alone as I do or am interested in almost anything. I think the science of psychology defines these differences as “personality”, why people differ. Sometimes I’ve had to resort to defining what I don’t…

I haven’t had this problem since first year, I geuss Engineering Physics was more stringent with attendance.

I wrote this
I wrote this for the Time Project: “It’s raining sideways.”“Why did you bring me here?”“This is where I am going to live from now on.”“I would hate it if this weather wouldn’t stop.”“You don’t have to visit.” This is a 5-line part of a 7-scene mini play we constructed. I feel proud of it as…

UberMedia
I just found out about dose.ca today when I was walking by it outside a Union Station news stand. Ironic that I first saw it in print form. Also, I just saw EPIC 2015 because a friend sent it to me. This is what mostly spearheaded this line of thought. There is so much information…
