My Pet Peeve

I’ve never really liked the phrase ‘pet peeve’, but it is what it is. You know what I really just can’t stand?

Microwaves.

Hear me out. (That’s right, a bit of a personal article for a change, but don’t get too comfy). Continue reading “My Pet Peeve”

Why Bother?

Blog 43 – Speaking Normally – Why Bother?

shockwm

What the actual fuck goes on here?

Certain people have this habit. The habit of whispering instead of talking.

Whaaat? Why would you even do such a thing?

As it is, We’re in a noisy environment. These people then decide to go on and actually WHISPER (or near about) as a means of communication.

As if I haven’t had a tiring day and want to just kick back. Now I have to put in all that extra brain-power to solely focus on the bullshit coming outta their collective mouths.

Blog 41 – The Human Jolt (Awkward Sidesteps in Public)

Leicester_City_Centre

I haven’t posted in a while. Which is good news for society because that usually means that nothing is annoying me enough to sit down write about it.

Anyway, today I experienced the human jolt. You heard… The human jolt… – That sidestep thingy we’re forced to do in public.

You know… When two people are walking in opposite directions to each other and you try to judge the other person’s movement and steps to see which side of the narrow pavement they are going to walk on. In movies, It’s a great scene, sure… Some would say it’s ‘cute’, even. But real life tells a whole different story. Believe me… Continue reading “Blog 41 – The Human Jolt (Awkward Sidesteps in Public)”

A Quick Overview

coverpicwithedge

Over the past day or two, I have hyped up that I have a few good posts coming up on this blog. I do have the ideas written down, but nothing has been put on WordPress as of yet… I’m holding fire to space out my posts a bit more. Do expect some half decent, well thought out articles in this week and the next.

Not to say that they’ll be the best articles to come from my strange mind… But It’ll be good for a final push to get me about 5 more followers (you’ll soon see why).

Shit… I hope I haven’t upped your expectations too much. Oh, Urm…. Continue reading “A Quick Overview”

Blog 30 – Evolution of The EssWhyDee Blog

Official Esswhydeeblog Logo

So… It all started as a mere idea.

I was on a gap year and I had a desire to express my views… In particular, I wanted to share a story.

The first hurdle for me, was choosing the right blogging platform for myself. Blogger seemed like the obvious option, but immediately I was put off… Same situation with Tumblr, but decided I wasn’t going to be a micro-blogger. Finally, I found WordPress, downloaded the Android app and stuck with it… And boy am I glad that I did.

So I finally typed up the story I had to tell. It was called My Bizarre Experience. I split it into two parts because initially, I wanted the very first readers of my blog to return a few days later. I had chosen a very bad, dark theme at the time and everything was all very… Urm… Amateur.

Blog 27 – Have you Ever…? ( A Tearjerker )

tennant

What you’ll read below was written out of boredom and has been sitting in my drafts for a very long time.

Usually, If a post goes into my drafts folder, it doesn’t end up getting published…Ever. What goes in, doesn’t necessarily come back out. (Cue evil laughter)

I’ve published it because it had the highest votes in the poll, within this article. However, I don’t expect it to gather many views or likes as it was written very quickly. (Wait, have I just put you off reading the rest of this article?)

But anyway, Get your tissues ready, because you are about to enter the emotional roller-coaster! (Height restrictions apply)

Have you ever…

Blog 16 – Opinions

Discussing new wheat variety for Ecuador
“This is rubbish!” – “But I don’t think so”

Opinions are formed around us on a constant basis. Everyone has them. Some of them are stupid and uneducated whilst others are valid and helpful.

It is a key part of life…we form opinions in our minds to decide on what we believe, whether we vocalise them or not.

You can have opinions on people, certain issues such as current events or even on a product and whether you like it or not. It creates love, hate, peace, war, conflict etc

But there is something about your POV that differs from anything else.

It’s YOURS…Therefore, it matters. Regardless of facts/figures or the what anybody else thinks, you will still hold a connection with your opinion because it defines your character.
