I normally post blog posts for my series ‘operation gtfo’ which are all aimed around me trying to finish my PhD. But the truth is, I am not always productive and ticking things off my to do list. So this is this first post in the NON ‘operation gtfo’ series- my favourite ways to procrastinate…. Gardening– My non-green thumbs love […]
** In Collaboration** Teeth are incredibly strong. They can withstand immense pressure from our jaw muscles. In fact the human bite can be around 275 lbs. That is a lot of force going into your teeth. Everyday they go through various challenges of ripping and crushing food. They also have to withstand the degenerative effects of sugar and decay. However […]
When I started my PhD I never even considered that it might make me ‘over-qualified’. I mean you can never be overdressed and overeducated right? Apparently while that is true for Oscar Wilde, it may not be true for PhD students. I read an article on LinkedIn about this very issue the other day, and when I had a networking […]
** In Collaboration** Our homes are not something that we need to conform to and make similar. After all, we all work hard to afford our homes, be that renting or buying one, and so create a space inside those four walls that is unique to us and make us happy is essential.

** In collaboration** Every now and then something comes along to remind us that we’re not as young as we used to be. It can be when we make a cultural reference that falls on the deaf ears of a co-worker. It can be our relative exhaustion after completing physical feats that we would have accomplished without breaking a sweat 10 years ago. Or it can be the way in which we feel so utterly debilitated after an injury like a trip, slip or fall. When we’re growing up we seem to take tumbles on a daily basis. We fall off our bikes, tumble down stairs, get into playground scuffles and seem to shrug it all off with the aplomb of a Hollywood stunt performer. Nonetheless, when we get older, our injuries can become more severe than the kind that we encounter as kids… And they can take a much heavier toll. They can cause us to lose time at work (and potentially lose income as well). They can disrupt our healthy lifestyle and make us less active than we are used to being. They can make us unable to do the essential duties around the house that keep the home clean and serene… And they can rob us of our sense of self-worth. Here are some steps that will help you to completely and comprehensively recover from your injuries… Get up and get moving as soon as you can, […]
** In Collaboration** Life is always busy and hectic, and it’s easy to get into the habit of going with the flow so that you can save yourself any added stress or pressure. However, often life can become pretty overwhelming, and your responsibilities and commitments can begin to snowball. All too often, it can become too much, and you can […]
