This is the 130th post I will be publishing on Zoewiezoe.com since I’ve started annoying you folks from this nook on the internet on the 1st of August (aka, 123 days ago). And just in case numbers aren’t your forte (spoken by the person with a fear for anything math related): That’s a LOT ofContinue reading “Personal Blogging – Art of repetition”

Tinder Tales – the curious case of the neck-beard
You can spend ages making generalizations that can fit the entire online dating community. It’s hilarious. I do it all the time. I mean, if we’re on the shallow meat market, might as well make the most of it, right? You can bet they’re doing the same for you, anyway (I always wonder how IContinue reading “Tinder Tales – the curious case of the neck-beard”
Stranded
In the midst of all this water In the lake of tears I cried I sit here on my island Trying nothing but to hide From what’s falling down around me And the ruins left inside Constantly wishing, hoping, praying That my pain will finally subside. – But as the sky around me darkens AndContinue reading “Stranded”
Silly Goose
There’s lots of things one might aspire to be in life – but one thing not many people put on that list is: SILLY. Which is…a….damn…. Shame (yes. With a capital S). There’s a certain demanded seriousness to life that’s always kind of rubbed me the wrong way. Sure. I can be focused, and allContinue reading “Silly Goose”
Focus – The Spotlight effect
Earlier this week , while I was burying myself in the sugary haze of a marzipan cake (better than booze, I’m arguing), I literally broke the knife while attempting to carve through the crust of this thing. As in – I actually broke the blade away from the handle completely. SNAP. CRACK. My flair forContinue reading “Focus – The Spotlight effect”

Same mistakes
I had a talk with my manager today about my progress and learning curve in my new job. It was a good talk. Way more positive than I’d pictured it beforehand (damn impostor syndrome) and a great clarification on my results these past few months. You see – when it comes to my new endeavorsContinue reading “Same mistakes”
Personal Blogging – Patterns
As someone with a strong focus on efficiency and a goal-oriented mindset, I’m used to analyzing the things I’m doing (or have done) in order to discern the patterns that will allow me to bend the rules of the game as much to my favor as humanly possible. The simple fact of life is, afterContinue reading “Personal Blogging – Patterns”
Damn ‘Rona
A little sparrow flew into my living room French doors today. Not because they’re so impeccably clean that you think they might be open, mind you, because I am a lot of things in life, but not a frequent window-cleaner. The dull thud when it hit the glass distracted me from something I was editingContinue reading “Damn ‘Rona”
Guilty
Who locked the door on me, Who took away my sun. Who found a way to steal… All that I thought I had become? Who made my world go dark Who holds that smoking gun Who is the one to blame… Wait. I guess I’m the only one.
