I believe that life is a game, that life is a cruel joke, and that life is what happens when you’re alive and that you might as well lie back and enjoy it.”

Don’t build your home on other people’s Land
I’ve been combing through Ian Smith’s autobiography. It offers a new and refreshing historical picture of Zimbabwe through the eyes of the white man.

I’ve been a fan of Aziz Ansari’s work since reading the book on Modern Romance. His work is fucking relatable in a funny way. So when I heard about his new show on Netflix I immediately pounced lol and I wasn’t disappointed at all. Someone said this about the show : ‘It sees the world not as a series of conflicts to be overcome, but…
Best Shows Of 2016
It’s been a pretty laid back year for me, I wasn’t too out going because I devoted most of my time to building a new business so naturally I binged on a lot of shows in between. So here’s my top ten and what I thought of them in order of preference starting from the best. The Walking Dead Talk about living under a rock…
What 2016 meant to me..
What 2016 meant to me? Let’s see, I guess this has been a really unsavoury year for most people but as always I like to take the good with the bad. The beginning of my year was anything but ideal, weeks earlier I knew someone really close to me had a few weeks to live. It was devastating and when doom’s day finally came I…

The next card you flip over may be a two or a five or a ten or a QUEEN! You take it as it comes at you, dealing with what you have the…
The Dark Horse
No one despises the innocent Nice Guy who happily takes orders. But everyone envies the one who knows what he wants and takes it, the guy who won’t be played, and the guy who manages to unite dream and day. Most people remain static all their lives. They do not change and cannot change. They are basically the same now as they were five years…
Loyalty
Came across this little passage the other day. “They say one sees who one’s friends in times of trouble. But I say one sees them in good times. If a man really is your friend, he will be pleased by your good fortune without reservations. But if he is not really your friend, every step forward will be for him a reproach or even an…
Evolution of Dating
From time to time I stumble upon a good book that keeps me away from the monotony of Television and gaming. Earlier this week I started reading a book called Morden Romance which basically discusses the evolution of dating with modern technology. Social media and services like WhatsApp have revolutionised the way people interact. Love in the 21st century has totally been rewritten. This…
