Are You An Introvert Or Are You Actually Anti-Social?
Just to be clear: none of those two are actually the same. You aren’t necessarily anti-social if you’re an introvert. The same could be said for vice versa. There are a lot of reasons why these two couldn’t be more farther apart and one of them is the fact that introverted people can ACTUALLY socialise really well while anti-social ones aren’t capable.

The Signs You’re Ready to Propose to Her
The idea of being able to ask the big question to the love of your life is often an overwhelming one. After all, there are so many different aspects that you need to think about. You need to think about how you will bring up the question, if you want to go anywhere special to ask the question, and if you’re even ready to ask. For many people, the idea of not being ready for a relationship is one of the biggest fears. This is one of the many reasons why you might be afraid to ask her to take the relationship to the next level. With that being said,…

Things You Should Stop Doing As A Writer
As writers, we all have some habits when we write. Those habits give readers clues that we sometimes don’t know what we’re doing. Or that we just aren’t as good as we make it out to be. They can be pet peeves or they can simply be an oversight. Then there are those habits that make our progress and productivity go down. These are the kinds of habits that we mostly face every day. We need to stop doing them if we ever want to keep our productivity up. Read moreMy Modern Rustic Dream HouseWhat are these bad habits that writers have? Running away Can you honestly say that you…

How Can You Drive a Quad Bike Safely During Bad Weather?
It can usually go without saying that trying to drive when the weather is bad is not always the best idea. Whether the roads are iced over and there is black ice all over the place, or the rain is coming down in sheets so thick you can’t see more than a few metres ahead of you, there are always risks to driving in inclement weather. More often than not, cars have features implemented to help combat some of these troubles. Sadly, many quad bikes do not have as extensive features, which can make it somewhat difficult to drive safely when the weather turns sour on your way back home.…

Is The Pen Mightier Than The Keyboard?
Typing is faster and more convenient. You only get to use one object rather than two when you handwrite something. But anything that comes easy is just another way for us be lazier and lazier. Just like with everything else, the moment you stop using something, you lose the skills and talent to do that thing if you ever try to go back into it. Like my best friend. She used to love writing back when we were still teenagers. But when she got a new computer and then had internet connection way earlier than the rest of us, she slowly stopped writing and relied on typing a lot. When…

Story Writing Tips: Clichés, Tropes And Ideas
Writing, funnily enough, can make you feel like a god. No joke, it can. Because when you think about it, you are creating something out of nothing. You use words to make something that didn’t exist before. You give them life and you meld them into something that would one day become a different world different from ours. Read moreMy Modern Rustic Dream HouseWriting stories is the definite way for you to create a god complex too, by the way. Okay, that was a joke. But not really. As someone who has been imagining and writing stories since she was thirteen (albeit really bad ones but come on), it can…

How Do You Keep a Loving Relationship Going?
After spending months, even years working on growing and nurturing a tender and loving relationship with someone close to you, you might feel at a loss as to how you can make the distance between you and your loved one grow even smaller. For some people, an intimate retreat might be in order. For other people, a sit down and a heavy talk might be the better way to talk about where you want to take things in the relationship. However, something that many people can appreciate is a gift that shows just how much love and effort you want to put into keeping the relationship loving and going. For…

The Fairy Flower Garden Of My Dreams
Now what would a fairy garden look like to a kid? Something that would be surrounded with colours, right? With many beautiful flowers surrounding the area that would glow in either the sunlight or under the moon. How about to an adult? What does a “fairy flower garden” actually look like to an adult? To me, since I’m not a gardener and have zero talents for landscaping, as long as there are beautiful flowers all over the place then it’s good enough for me. Read moreMy Modern Rustic Dream HouseJust imagine there being Cherry Blossom Trees dotting the yard. Those beautiful white and pink flowers that would then fall during…

Childhood Dreams That Never Came True For A Good Reason
I had this dream when I was a kid that I was going to be one of those awesome rock-star girls that carried an electric guitar all the time. I would be making millions of dollars after I made my debut up on Mt. Everest, where it was tall enough to make the whole world watch and listen to me. Even the gods would applaud my performance since I was high enough to reach them. What? Don’t look at me like that. I bet you had an even more ridiculous childhood dream. (Disclaimer: I dreamt of achieving all of that when I was 16 – still a kid) Read moreMy…

My Nightly Routine That Could Also be Yours
Reading has always been something I do when I have down time. Whenever I have a break or every night that I go to bed, I have something to read that helps me relax or to encourage my mind to have good dreams so I work well when I wake up in the morning. Books, my friends. Whether you read real ones that are made of ink and paper, or the digital ones you purchase online and read through a screen, it wouldn’t matter. Reading is still reading and it is engaging and entertaining as it is calming. And I don’t just end my day with just reading a good…
