It’s that time of year of again; the time when everyone runs around the house to adjust all their time pieces accordingly to the new hours of the day. Yes, it’s day light savings. As some may have realized, this past Sunday in Canada — except in Saskatchewan — the time for the day fell…
I am known to be quite a pessimistic person (I’m a pessimistic realist, thank you very much). And I have decided to compile a few things that i can’t stand about humans. 1.

The night was calm; however, through the serenity of night, there I lay dreaming an erratic dream. My dream was unintentionally inspired by The Walking Dead and my yearning to see The Shining. I was the heroine of an isolated hotel, rescuing the inhabitants from man-eating zombies. Then suddenly, Superman appeared in his signature ostentatious…
