Can you really achieve perfect timekeeping?
What is your timekeeping like? Mine has always been off. When I was younger it was off in the way of me always being stupidly early for everything. I'm not kidding, I would be the person with an appointment at 10am who would turn up at 9.20am and feel foolish hanging around. I worried though,… Continue reading Can you really achieve perfect timekeeping?
When does being honest tip over into being rude?

A book review: The Handmaid’s Tale
The Handmaid's Tale is a book that I received as a gift a long time ago, found a spot on my bookshelf for and then forgot about. That was, until the beginning of this year when I was looking through my books and making a list of the main ones that were on my unread list… Continue reading A book review: The Handmaid’s Tale
Are you a morning person or a night owl?
I'm really intrigued. What makes somebody a morning person or a night owl? I'm not really either. I work shift work and as a result my body clock is pretty much all over the place. Sure, there are down sides to this but the positive is that I can now literally sleep anywhere and at… Continue reading Are you a morning person or a night owl?
