  Primate Culture began, like a lot of things begin, as a result of boredom. Primate Cu lture is what you get when you put a slightly crazy person with a lot of free time in a room with a lot of free Internet for long periods of time. Primate Culture started as a way […]

Day 2 wasn’t as hard to do as I thought it was going to be. A part of me thought I would forget but I didn’t. I guess I am more committed to this challenge than even I realize. The distractions today were more though. Had to leave my den of thought (the toilet seat) for five […]

So the first day of this thinking challenge made me realize one thing, fantasizing about something and experiencing that thing is a lot different. Before I started this challenge I kept thinking how easy it would be to think for thirty minutes straight because in my head I’m kind of a thinker, but alas, to my surprise, the […]

Now I realize that from this title you might be expecting a story about a nightmare about drowning or a rant about how my haters are ‘chewing-gumming’ me and not giving me space to live my awesome life but that’s not what is happening here. In fact, the original and extra long title of this […]

Black. The slippery winding road after the heavy rains. Wet from all the water. Water flowing off into the gutters. Gutters that separate the road from the Green. The rolling landscape. Lush grass. Ever-evergreen trees with the most colourful flowers. Pink and purple and Yellow. The sun at its brightest. Hot and angry. Angry at being interrupted […]

I think that we should all be writers. Some of you are already giving me that eye of “but-I-am-not-creative” or “I-was-a-science-student” or “I-don’t know-how-to-even-write” but if you give me just a bit I can tell you why I think we, that is, every single person in the world  should be writers. *takes deep breath* Ok.

The other day I was voraciously surfing the web, hopping from one site to the other, you know, ‘as the spirit led’ and picking bits of information along the way (you see what I did there?) and somehow I ended at the wiki page of Douglas Adams. The first two sentences of the first paragraph […]

Ok. So it’s like this. The humans have been going around acting all busy (lazy bunch) and I’m here to tidy up. I would much prefer to be on vacation right now but my fear of flying has been increased greatly because of the recent happenings in… well let’s just say I would rather stay […]
