I always told myself I wanted to start practicing yoga, but I never thought I had the patience for it. Fortunately, this year I’m taking a yoga class at school, and while I didn’t initially choose this option, I’m super grateful I get to experience it. Because it is a class in my timetable I…

“Good books don’t give up all their secrets at once.”-Stephen King. Never the wiser, I’d say. Mystery is one of the best yet most complicated genres out there in terms of novels. A good one can keep you so absorbed that you don’t notice three hours have flown by. A bad one, on the other…
During my free time last Saturday, a movie on Netflix caught my eye. I wasn’t in the mood of hesitating so I just decided to take a look at it. Just before the ending song came on, I started to realize how astonished I was by the plots and conclusion. It was so brilliantly made…

Yesterday, one of my hockey fanatic friends invited me to see the Calgary Flames home opener at the Saddledome. Oddly enough, in my ten years of living in Calgary I’d never been to see a game before. Further, I possess very limited hockey knowledge (having only seen a few practices from when I was a…
Saturday: a notepad sat on my desk. The paper’s slick surface reflected a curious yellow hue from a lamp. A clear resin pen, filled halfway with a dark grey ink, lay atop the notepad, a conspicuous accessory. I was up late at night, but the late-night writing did little to help with my insomnia. Rather,…
