Hate shopping for furniture? Hate going to big blue buildings labelled “IKEA” because they remind you of the hours upon hours of mindlessly viewing bed frames? Well Sydney, Australia is the place for you! Recently, an IKEA in Sydney recognized the predominately male hate for furniture shopping, and responded by creating MÄNLAND, a playground for…
I find a rare depth and infinite wisdom in the words J.K. Rowling channels through her character: Professor Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore in the globally renowned Harry Potter series. For those of you perhaps less familiar with the Harry Potter books, Dumbledore is the headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. He is…
*Quick disclaimer before you watch this video: It may be considered offensive to some people. The issue of reckless driving IS marginalized in this video, and neither I nor YAA endorse reckless driving by any means. With that said, this PSA does have a bit of an interesting twist at the end.
This might just be one of the coolest videos I’ve ever seen. A modern day samurai displays superhuman accuracy and reaction time by cutting a pellet fired from a gun in half. [youtube Qzhs1Z8Rwnk]
The issue of equality, or rather, inequality, between men and women has been long debated, questioned and criticized. I’m here to point out some arguments from hopefully what all of you will view as conciliatory. 1) Creation of woman from man. Let’s go back to the origins from a religious point of view. Long story short:…
Who can resist the cuteness of kittens?! I want to snuggle them ALL!!! (…And yes, I do waste my time surfing the internet for adorable cat photos.)
It’s the back-to-school season once again! Want to impress your peers, teachers, and even family with your knowledge of the world? Here are some interesting and, well… rather unusual facts from National Geographic: “It takes 713 gallons (2,700 L) of water to make one cotton T-shirt.” It’s hard to imagine how much water that is,…

Here is a cool picture I found on StumbleUpon; have fun trying to find Wall-E, took me a while! 🙂
1. Canada Day: As July 1 dawns every year, I get to experience overzealous and extremely patriotic Canadians, fun parades in Canmore and Banff, fireworks and having insults aimed at me by those who have found a little too much comfort at the bottom of the bottle on this annual holiday. 2. The Heat:…
Okay, so I wish there was a sticker for this (it’s not the healthiest thing to eat y’know!) ‘cuz I think this meal is more frightening than a donut burger! The other day, I was quite famished and found myself standing at the KFC booth. My friend and I decided to try the Double Down…’cause…
Here is just one of the countless adorable (but mischievous) macaque monkeys found at the Batu Caves located in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. These little primates are not scared of humans in the least. If tourists are not careful, these furry creatures will steal just about anything from them. I even spotted one cheeky monkey with an ice cream cone!
I want to execute this dance flawlessly and completely every time I win rock paper scissors. Rock.. paper… SCISSORS. HAH I WIN! *three minutes later* Friend: Are you done dancing? Me: NOPE *continues to dance*
Dragons are mythical creatures that have appeared in legends for many generations. They typically take on the form of a giant reptilian creature with sharp teeth and claws, wings, and of course the ability to breath fire. In some tales dragons are seen as the villain in which a knight or other brave hero is…
Hmmm… if you say it really slow, it almost sounds like the word naïve. Try it: P-R-O-C-R-A-S-T-I-N-A-T-I-O-N. Procrastination itself is most peoples’ vice, from adults to children. Oh and did I mention STUDENTS? Honestly, the youth of today are especially subject to it and I myself can admit to viewing procrastination as an impending doom.…
