This one here is an easy one. One technique that many teenagers/young adults (with and before me) have mastered through years of experience and leaving things as messy as possible. Often this was out of pure spite towards their mother's constant nagging telling them to “Clean your room! You live under my roof and I … Continue reading How NOT to Clean your Room

How NOT to Blog (a few days in my dysfunctional life)
In this post I will try to give you an idea of how sincere my dysfunctionality is. I will, therefore, give you a snapshot of my week from Tuesday to Friday. Monday was relatively calm, after taking an exam my boyfriend came over and I was very tired so cuddled up and slept most of … Continue reading How NOT to Blog (a few days in my dysfunctional life)
How NOT to drink responsibly
Now, before writing this post I would like to say two things, the first being that I live in a country where the legal drinking age is 18 and therefore being 19 I can now legally do so.

How NOT to be in a Fandom
The sense of belonging you feel when you're in a community which adores the same books/movies/videogames as you do is something I have always loved and since I learnt to read I was quick to obsess over every little detail of a new potential fandom.

Especially if you're me, such an accomplished procrastinator that (ignoring the constant reminders by my mother) I manage to always find myself packing no sooner than the day before departure. I have … Continue reading How NOT to Pack

I however am as … Continue reading How NOT to Study
Night-Time Wanderings
Follow-up post of "How NOT to contemplate your life". We are all particles in an ever-expanding universe. I know what you’re thinking, I’ve heard this phrase before. Well, that’s not what I mean, so let me explain. First, the concept I’m trying to express is a lot simpler than whatever you think I meant. We … Continue reading Night-Time Wanderings
How NOT to Contemplate Life
Everyone has lost countless time contemplating things which are fundamentally and so basically obviously useless. The human race even created two whole branches of study for it: philosophy and religion. Some answers have been proposed but none convincing or complete enough and the people who wallow in these questions frustratingly get underpaid (at least the … Continue reading How NOT to Contemplate Life
