It’s raining outside, and the sound of it creates melodies on the roof. I’m sitting next to my window, looking outside. Drops are falling into the canals, the tree leaves are shaking, clouds are moving slowly but relentlessly and my breath is at a slow pace. How many times do you stop yourself for a […]
Decluttering social media

For a long time, I had in mind deleting and decluttering all my social media accounts, but, to be honest, I didn’t seem capable of doing that. I’m still too weirdly attached and addicted to some social media accounts, so I couldn’t gather enough courage to just delete them. So I took baby steps. I […]
The environment and its influence

Most animals have some sort of relationship with their surroundings. Which makes sense right? Their survival depends on it. Some mammals will hoard food to survive the winter, while others will try to eat as much as they can so they are able to hibernate. The environment influences their behaviour. Why should that be different […]
Meeting more with my friends

For a long time, my social interactions were at a minimum. I was too busy and mentally cluttered to handle social events or simply meet my friends. But since I have more time, and I have detoxed myself from social media, I’ve been meeting more friends and hanging out with them. And you know what? […]
Social media detox

It has been a week since I decided to do some sort of ‘social media detox’. And it has been a blast. Since I stopped reading the news so often and practically stopped checking social media my mood has improved to such an extent that I’m back to being productive and cheerful. I had time […]
At last, I am graduating from my studies

After so many years of working full-time and studying part-time, I’ve finally made it. I’m graduating and officially becoming a Computer Scientist with a major in Software engineering. Sounds good right? The thing is, that I was expecting some kind of big relive, nirvana, over excitement. But no, at least not all of a sudden. […]
Finding out what adds value to my life

Today I had an idea, about how to find out what adds value to my life. Those things that you do in your daily life, that adds the most value to it. Because I live sometimes with this autopilot mode, I don’t realize when I’m doing something that it’s adding 0 value, and once I’ve […]
Drunk notes: Back from Amsterdam.

Well, this is something new, me writing notes when I’m a bit drunk. It has been a while since I drunk a bit too much. And it’s weird for me to admit it, but it feels good. My thoughts, usually scattered all over the place, chaotic, like a summer storm, become quiet, organized, and more […]
Old habits are coming back after a short vacation

It has been a while since I wrote for the last time. Unfortunately, that seems a pattern that starts to repeat. And I should not allow that to happen so often. But here I am again after my vacation. It was getting dark and foggy in my mind, so I took my iPad, had a […]
