Imagine this: you’re walking to a local bank branch when you come across a fifty dollar bill on the ground. There is no one around you and no clear indication as to whom the rightful owner of the bill is. What would you do? A show called What Would You Do actually did an experiment…
Chocolate has to be one of the greatest foods in the world. Chocolate makes up the majority of a child’s bag on Halloween, takes its place inside a cute heart-shaped box on Valentine’s Day, hides around the yard wrapped in shiny aluminum on Easter, and sits under a tree at Christmas time. But although chocolate…
There are some movies that thrive on the hype of the moment. And once that moment passes, the film slips as a passing fad. But there are movies out there that still attract our interest even decades after their release. So what makes a classic? Whether it’s fast paced action, original plotlines, chilling after-effects, or…
Alright guys, I know Valentine’s Day had long since passed. But, it’s never too late for a little romance. As you can probably tell (from my past posts), I’m a big fan of short films. I find them to be simple but efficient for conveying ideas. I recently came across this film from my YouTube…
My friend had recently introduced to me how to make cold porcelain. She showed me many of the trinkets she has made using this recipe and, being artistically challenged, I could only admire them. Cold porcelain is a cheap alternative to clay or fimo and is super easy to make. I would like to share…
Here’s a short video to shine some light on your Valentine’s day.
Have you ever woken up from a full night of sleep only to crawl through the day feeling tired and spent? What happened to all that energy eight hours of rest had promise? If you’ve ever felt this way, then you should probably look to your daily routine, there’s more to feeling rested then getting…
It has been scientifically proven that an hour of gaming a day does wonders for the brain. Video games can help build your lateral thinking skills, an essential part of IQ testing. Gaming can also improve one’s ability to strategize and perceive a situation, helping us grasp the whole picture and find the quickest route…
I really like videos like this, how they send memorable messages through such simple ideas. There are no twists, no flowery plot lines to distract the audience from the main idea, and no wasted moments. This is a video that can change your day, and maybe even more.
Living less than 15 minutes away from an elementary school, my daily afternoon jog usually takes me within earshot of conversations of children in the playground. I remember one particular little girl, red in the face, angrily ranting to her friends about her parents’ failure to purchase an iPhone for her as a Christmas present.…
I think it’s a widely known fact by now, that everyone loves talking but nobody likes to listen. We’ve all got areas of interests, and once a conversation begins to direct towards that particular field, the rambling begins. I’m definitely guilty of this, and I know most people are, but nevertheless, our love of speaking…
Guess what everyone? I’m in Vegas! For the past week and a half, I’ve been staying in the Bellagio hotel on main street. This is the first time I’ve ever visited sin city and I have to say that the idea of leaving anytime soon does not appeal to me. Between the beautiful chocolate fountains…
I can relate to the saying ‘out with the old and in with the new’, but not when it comes to music. Don’t get me wrong, there are so many really talented new artists out there (Ed Sheeran forever~), but I think we’re starting to forget about the beautiful music of the past few decades.…
“Inside every cynical individual is a disappointed idealist.” —George Carlin It really is disappointing when you can’t trust those around you. But the truth is, people lie. Whether it serves self-interest or just erupts from impulse, it’s difficult to take back a lie once it has been spoken. Although lying might not always be a…
It takes around an hour for a c-train from Dalhousie to arrive at Chinook, and when you’re really rushing to get some Christmas shopping done, time stretches. It was 10am on a no school Friday and I was cranky, tired, and impatient to get things over with. I sat at the very end of the…
