“Incremental games, also known as clicker games, clicking games or tap games, are video games whose gameplay consists of the player performing simple tasks such as clicking on the screen repeatedly.” (Wikipedia) I recently got sucked into the browser game Cookie Clicker again. It’s a simple game. There’s a big cookie on screen and you … Continue reading Incremental Games

(Bonus) Learning to say no.
I’ve been working as a mail delivery person for well over 6 years at this point. I still remember when I first started out. I worked about 9 or 10 hours a week, I can’t remember the exact amount in my contract but it was around that much. The person in charge of our weekly … Continue reading (Bonus) Learning to say no.
Covid’s toll on mental health
It’s been almost two years since the Coronavirus started. The last time I went to my university building was more than 23 months ago. I’m still enlisted at university and I’m still paying for it every month, but it doesn’t quite feel the same. Progress at getting my degree seems to have come to a … Continue reading Covid’s toll on mental health
Sensory Overload
Loud noises, bright lights, flashy colors, busy streets, long train rides, large squares, crowded restaurants, cold weather, warm weather, shouting, car alarms, fireworks, and busy classrooms. I could continue making a list for hours and I’d still not get close to writing about all the things that can cause sensory overload. And I’m still one … Continue reading Sensory Overload
Content Marketing
Almost 2 years ago, I started a minor at my university. I don’t know how common this is in other countries so just to be safe I’ll explain it real quick. A minor here is when you take a semester off from your major (English teacher, in my case) and do something else. This can … Continue reading Content Marketing
New Year Resolutions
Like a lot of people, I have a habit of making lofty and ambitious New Year resolutions every single year and rarely ever keeping those promises. 2021 was a little bit different in that regard for me. I started eating healthier, drinking less soda than before and later on in the year I even started … Continue reading New Year Resolutions
Looking Back on 2021
2021 was not great. I think I can speak for many that on a global scale we’ve had issues. Our country was without a proper government for most of this year and the one that finally formed is not one I’m particularly happy with. Covid is still rampant and is doing a very good job … Continue reading Looking Back on 2021
NaNoWriMo was a success!
I did it. I wrote a total of 50.009 words over the span of 30 days! Out of those 30 days, there were only 2 days where I did not hit the daily goal of 1667 words. That’s how strict this challenge felt. Once I missed the goal once I was pretty much going to … Continue reading NaNoWriMo was a success!
NaNoWriMo 2021 Update #2
We’re now 2 weeks into this challenge and through some unexplainable magic I’m still on schedule. I’m even a little bit ahead, assuming I manage to write enough words today. I’ve written 24499 words so far, and after 15 days I should be at 25000. So if I write a couple hundred today I’ll be … Continue reading NaNoWriMo 2021 Update #2
NaNoWriMo 2021 – Update #1
I’m going to keep these updates short, a lot shorter than a vast majority of my posts here. I’m doing this primarily for the rather obvious reason that I’m already having to write way too many words this month. On the topic of writing many words, the first week of my NaNoWriMo challenge has been … Continue reading NaNoWriMo 2021 – Update #1
