Last Saturday of the year, while driving through the leafy suburbs of North London on my weekend morning routine, I noticed a dead squirrel in the middle of the road. I slowed down to navigate round it and through my peripheral observed its head was smashed with blood dripping onto the asphalt; must have been […]
Trying again…
So I was taking a shower in the gym yesterday when it dawned on me that I’ve been working out here for about a year now. I remember my first time and the not so pleasant experience I had with one of the gym personnel at the front desk. I felt it was unprofessional, to […]

Care…
The other night, I rushed to meet my girlfriend in the Accident and Emergency ward of a hospital in North London as she had been suffering from stomach pains all day. We spent about three hours patiently waiting with others. The room was full of discontentment, agony and despair; it was a humbling experience I […]

Time Spent…
A lady cleaner at my workplace has gotten real fond of me. I see her every now and again and we always share good conversations. Of course, in this process I learn about her because she loves to talk! So she’s from Portugal, came to London as a teenager and began working immediately. She’s currently […]

Pain…
One afternoon, my head began throbbing and my vision grew blurry. I knew something was different and decided to leave work early. I threw up immediately I got home. Now I’m a rather healthy young man and rarely get sick; I say this based on the number of visits I pay to the hospital every […]

The Journey…
It’s been ages since I last performed a DIY exercise. I recently bought some furniture so I had a chance to get back at it. It was a most interesting Saturday afternoon I have to say. I realized I didn’t have any tools so I had to buy a screwdriver set and hammer from a […]

This process usually takes time and is an interesting journey for those who choose to participate in it. Many of us don’t […]

Imperfections…
I’ve always had a keen interest in the Financial Markets. Graduating with a 2.1 in Economics and starting my career with a Global Bank was exciting; it exposed me to great minds, strong systems and complex products. I have 6 years of Institutional Financial Services experience under my belt at the moment and I have […]

In need of change…
En route home from work the other day, there was a man on the Northern line begging for change. He spoke of his ill fortune and his desire for financial assistance. He went through the carriages with his hand outstretched expectant; I guess he believed in the good of mankind. A man who sat opposite […]

A question of Free Will…
Do you believe that our lives are predestined or do you believe everyone has free will and is completely responsible of where they end up in life? Yes, this is why they say life is what you make it. The only twist is how many of us know this? And I mean that from a […]

The Journey to Victory…
I recently got my driving license! That’s really good news for me and I believe anyone who has given themselves to accomplishing anything will understand. I grew up not really having to drive, I thoroughly enjoy being driven. As such, my time in the driver’s seat has been rather short lived and very random. Getting […]
