spotlight on: one king north
Unlike most of my spotlight series on cafes and public spaces, One King North is actually a new coworking space in Uptown Waterloo at King/Erb. When they first opened they only had a takeaway coffee shop that was open to the public but they’re also experimenting with other combinations of their coworking space and the… Read More spotlight on: one king north

Distinct and reliable signs of fall: trees changing colours people bringing out their long sleeves and sweaters the insane lengths of the bookstore/Tims/Dollarama lines After being gone from campus for yet another 8-month stint for my last two co-op terms, coming back to KW was a weird experience.

As I write this I’m taking a break (one of many from today) from writing my papers. I don’t really deserve a break but I’m taking one anyways.

on the quest for motivation
It’s exam season and I’m sick. I thought at first my throat was just blown from going way too hard at The Killers’ set at Wayhome. But now it’s been more than a week and I’m still feeling under the weather (read: coughing fits, phantom smells??, headaches, sore throat) so I don’t think I can blame… Read More on the quest for motivation
