Here are the experiences, products, and applications that affected me in 2022. I've done my best not to include anything from previous years, but needless to say, the things on those lists (for the most part) carry over for this year as well.
I finally understand why Rapunzel wanted freedom from her tower.
It has been nearly a month since the entire world has begun to take the global pandemic of COVID19 seriously and it's been a single week since I've been confined in my room.
I went from social distancing to isolation and the difference is staggering.
There were several ups and downs when it comes to 2019. When I first think of 2019, i think of loss, but when I reflect on all I did this year, there were also several accomplishments as well. I’ll be using my vision board as a guide for this adventure of a blog post.
On October, 30th, I made the difficult decision to put my nineteen year old cat down due to a cocktail of health issues that she had little to no chance from recovering from.
While I am glad I let her rest in peace, my heart and soul still feels the pain and loss that comes from no longer having my feline companion in my life.
I will cover a list of recommendations of experiences, products, and applications that affected my 2018 journey. These cover a broad range and spectrum of items, but I have done my best to categorize them for your leisure. I look forward to finding out what your Top 5 life-changers are.
In late November of 2018, Riot (League of Legends), released an amazing music video titled “K/DA – POP/STARS”. This video encouraged me to give the popular League of Legends game a try.
Initially I played with my MacBook’s multi-touch trackpad, but I was awful till I got my SteelSeries Sensei Gaming Mouse. Now I’m just mediocre.
In today’s The Things I Carry post, we’ll discuss how I obtained this mouse and what my thoughts are about it.
Have you played collectible trading card games? How about matching games?
When I attended New York Comic Con this year, I went to a booth where they were promoting Magic the Gathering Puzzle Quest. This is an app game that is available on Google play and the App Store to play.
I have been playing for a few days and here are my two cents on this digital game that is technically free-to-play, but is play-to-win.
This simple fact means that no matter how hard I work, and I work hard, I still haven't fulfilled the financial goals that I've been putting on my vision board year after year.
While the easy solution would be to get a raise or a higher paying job, the fact that I do not know how to properly manage my finances is still a problem. It's the reason why I have a financial advisor, it's why I opened up to my significant other who has taken the challenge of educating me. It's partially why the highly recommended book, "Rich Dad Poor Dad" caught my attention.
One of the biggest lessons I learned is to focus on investing in my 'asset' column.
I have been playing PostKnight three weeks
PostKnight, is a free to play RPG available on mobile devices. You play as a mail carrier who happens to be a knight, a PostKnight if you will. You make deliveries while charging forward with your weapon, defending with your shield, or healing with your potions. It’s a game that has two main ‘game modes’ that I’ll delve into shortly.
While I am currently blessed with youth, I know that beauty isn’t eternal.
This is why I have begun to work diligently on figuring out my ideal skincare routine. This includes a cleanser, toner, moisturizer, and the occasional mask.
Let’s talk about the Bamboo Charcoal Detoxifying Toner
My home, my room, and my office are a mess
This results in my mind and my thoughts reflecting the mess that surrounds me on a daily basis.
Whenever I go to work, the clutter on my desk stresses me out even before my day ‘officially’ begins. When I come home from a long day from work, the last thing I want to do is clean, but the clothes scattered about combined with the pieces of unidentified paper compels me to spend at least 15 minutes tidying up my space.
Decluttering and tidying the KonMari method may be my only hope for my problem.
There are many options out in the market for headphones and earbuds to enjoy music, phone calls, and YouTube. So why do I carry air pods with me everywhere I go? They are expensive and can easily be lost, yet I love them.
I used to make fun of Apple AirPod users until I became one.
In today’s The Things I Carry post, we’ll discuss how I met and fell in love with my Apple AirPods.
Do you ever feel overwhelmed? You feel like you are fighting a hydra and no matter how many heads you slice, two more keep growing in its place?
This is what life feels like. Whenever you complete a task at work, you get three more in its place. If you complete something for a relative, suddenly two more ask for favors. After going to a hangout with friends, you are suddenly involved in another project. Your to-do list is growing and you cannot keep up.
