Everyone loves a good beauty blogger. The perfect lighting, the appetizing meals, the white supremacy. I’ve recently had to get in touch with several of these internet barbies and have a growing list of questions/concerns and overall curiosity of who these women really are. We may follow them, but do we even know them? I’ve …
Podcasts were never my thing. I mean, if I can watch something instead of just listening, then what’s the point, right? I thought podcasts were for a specific brand of people with a much better attention span than I would ever be capable of. Or, super-millennials who were soo new age that they were too …
Within the last year, universities all across Canada have been refusing the sale of water bottles on their campuses. University officials have deemed this as a way to eliminate plastic waste, and push forward a more ‘green’ campus. They believe that the availability of water fountains, combined with the banning of plastic water bottles, … Continue reading
Who really cares about our health? More specifically, who cares about your pain? Is it the doctors and nurses on call at the hospital, or is it government regulating how you should be treated? For the last two decades, opiates (think of them as heavy-duty pain relievers) such as codeine, oxycodone, and fentanyl have been … Continue reading
What do women want? Women want inexpensive, good-quality dresses that are trendy but not too trendy. You want a dress that is popular-page worthy on Instagram, but that won’t make you go ‘SMH’ a year later when you’re scrolling through your own Facebook timeline. Trust me- I know the struggle. That’s why I was more … Continue reading
If you take one look at me you would not think I would dedicate so much time to reading and listening to science news. I mean, I used to spend hours lathering myself up with fake tan, hundreds of dollars (actually, probably thousands by now) on dying my hair an unnatural shade of blonde, and … Continue reading
Because everybody just looooveess the Christmas tree. Nothing breaks my heart more than seeing rows of pumpkins lining the neighbors curb, awaiting the impending doom that is garbage day. I can’t help but believe these tossed-aside pumpkins are not only dying on the outside, but dying on the inside too. Like middle-child syndrome, our spherical orange friends … Continue reading
Everyone should watch all 11 seasons of It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia, but if you need a place to start than look no further than the seven best episodes of the series. All the fans of Big Bang Theory and Modern Family should really convert. Sorry not sorry. Sweet Dee’s Dating a Retarded Person One … Continue reading
Familiar things are comforting- that’s just how it is. A smell that makes you feel safe, or a sound that can always lull you to sleep; repetition is comfort, even if you hate the cycle. Doing the same things, eating the same food, and seeing the same buildings just make us content. At ease, even. … Continue reading
At this exact point in time, I’ve been officially graduated for 4 months, 3 days, 3 hours and maybe like 40 minutes. Which, means I’m qualified to say pretty much anything I want about life after university. Of course, I’m sure more will change as I drift further and further away from my peri-university life. … Continue reading
I tend to live a life of peril for the most part. My past experiences have lead me to believe that there is always something bad waiting to happen. I wouldn’t say that I always think the sky is falling down, but there’s probably a 70% chance it could if we don’t start separating the … Continue reading
Let me begin by telling you what this article is not. This is not an article that would appease Karl Marx by any means (get it? means? ha). I’m not here trying to outline what marketing and capitalism does to us, or how kids are molded into consumers at a very young age. This isn’t … Continue reading
