Seeing Real Life Fantasy
As a child one of my favorite animals was always the seahorse. Ever since I laid eyes on this creature through books and media such as cartoons, they've always been in a special place to my heart. Yes, though they're not on the top of the food chain, unlike the orca, seahorses have always been oddly unique if not mesmerizing.

Being Your Number One Fan
I’ve been on the internet for several years — when my parents allowed me to play more than just the original Rollercoaster Tycoon with its pixelated NPCs wandering around the map before I flung them to their dooms, I was given the liberal useage to browse the endless slew of websites and social media outlets. I was a child unhinged and ready to strike my way into the world as the next digitized form of sliced bread— however that manifested itself, no matter how it did so. I was also (slightly) disillusioned with the notion of popularity and gaining a cult following.

Thank You, Troll. Now Scurry Back To Your Bridge
A few months ago I wrote a piece about the need for men to speak up about their struggles with mental health. The majority of what I write is undiluted garbage, and after writing for a few hours my apartment needs both a deep clean and an exorcism to rid it of the stench of my latest attempt at literary immortality.

Can You Eat A Fried PB&J for Breakfast?
Can you eat a fried Pb&J for breakfast? Nutritionally, it seems like a good idea. Peanut butter is full of iron and protein, and if you use preserves instead of jelly then you get a serving of fruit and fiber. And then, of course, you have the bread to consider: whole wheat, white, multigrain, tortilla wrap, etc...

What it Was Like to be a Supermarket Cashier During the Pandemic
It's a never-ending line of food coming down the conveyer belt. Bodies of people lined up, eagerly and impatiently awaiting it to be their turn. Headcount... time to call for my second cashier. I hear sighs of relief and a stray grumble "finally" as I direct the next customer to lane three to start unloading. Reassuring the crowd that someone is on their way. The line shuffles half its bodies over to lane 3, an angry mob has been averted.

Three Funniest Stories Of 2021
In 2021, A Catholic Bishop Resigned After He Fell In Love With A Satanic Erotica Novelist. The youngest bishop in all of Spain at the time, Xavier Novell, 41, was ordained as a Catholic bishop in 2010. Devout worshipers saw him as the perfect embodiment of their faith for the modern day, which is why they were so shocked when, in August 2021, he resigned from his office after falling in love with a writer of Satanic erotica.

The School Picnic
I was educated in a Christian Brother (an Irish congregation) missionary school called Goethals Memorial situated in my hometown, Kurseong. Every year during autumn time, GMS had this tradition of organising picnics for all its students and staff. At the time, the school had students from grades 3 to 10 and each class has two sections A and B. The class teachers (the ones in charge of the entire class) were responsible for organising picnics for their respective classes. So each class (both sections) would be heading to different locations and destinations.

5 Things That Truly Happy People Never Do
Happiness is not one of these things you can put off until later. It’s something you have to create in the present if you want to be completely satisfied in the future. We often sense that we have to do many matters to be certainly happy. But some comfortable humans have realized that we frequently don’t have to do certain things if we favor being truly happy.
