Life would be so much easier if I chose to drive places. I just had a two-hour round trip that was a mix of public transport and walking on foot, and it would’ve taken me less than half the time if I had chosen to drive. Don’t get me wrong, I can drive and I …
I saw the weirdest thing when I was getting my car serviced in Underwood the other day. The day had been very stock-standard for me, with the only difference being that I had to pick my car up from the mechanic on my way home from work. This was no big deal as the train …
I’m adopting a puppy from a breeder in Hobart. The puppy was just born which means I’ll be able to take it home in eight weeks. I’ve begun the puppy-proofing process so that my home and belongings won’t be any sort of hazard to the young pup. I’ve spoken to a lot of people who …
As a secondary school student in Hobart, there’s a lot of pressure to have the best of everything. I just turned sixteen and my parents bought me my first car so that I can learn to drive in it. I’m really excited that I’ve got a new car, but the issue is that it’s not …
I have this insufferable friend that thinks that she’s better than all of us because she got a great job straight out of university and bought a new car with her salary. Initially I was really happy for her, just like any good friend would be. But she just turned into this person that was …

I traveled through South Australia and along the coast of Western Australia to hit the halfway point of my adventure. In two weeks …
Sometimes I like to get philosophical and think deeply about the world. I think about the mechanics of our society (pun intended), and what we need to do to be able to live cooperatively. I consider the inner workings of how we function, and which jobs are necessary for our survival versus to the jobs …
Green is not a creative colour. Can confirm; I’ve spent my entire life at an academy for the arts and philosophical sciences, since both of my parents are professors here, and one thing I know for certain is that green- the colour- is not creative. It has its uses, but it’s not nearly as creative …
Until I hit fifteen, I had ZERO interest in cars. My parents just drove me everywhere, I took the bus to school, and I was old enough to appreciate the idea of sitting there and not having to do anything while people exert some degree of effort to get me places. And then my friends …
Unlike many of the naysayers, I’m fully pumped for the spin-offs of Fantasy. Those simpletons just didn’t understand why John Crow had to do what he did, and why Kyrion the Giant became the king of the little folk, and why Sandra Snark chose to become Empress of the South. Obviously it was a ploy …
