The Stoic Texts

Photo by Jonathan Pielmayer on Unsplash

While other Hellenistic philosophical schools have had their writings and teachings survive the test of time and history, Stoicism is estimated to only have about 1% of the original writings survive to this day.

Stoicism as we know it today is strongly derived from Late Stoa, the time period when Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, and Epictetus lived. Their works have helped form the foundation of what we read today and categorize as Stoicism.

The works from Early and Middle Stoa do not survive in their entirety today and are mostly fragmented writings.

Meditations by Marcus Aurelius

Marcus Aurelius Meditations is known as one of the great books of all time. In Medieval Greek, the translation means “Things to One’s Self.”

Meditations is comprised of 12 books, each with different passages Marcus wrote to himself. The passages range in length from one sentence all the way to multiple pages, each providing a glimpse into the Roman Emperor’s mind during the time of the writings.

It is believed that these were written between 170 and 180 AD.

Unpredictable.

As an unpredictable fifteen year old life threw a lot at me for my years. I wished people didn’t expect so much from me to receive so little. And that is where my story begins I am here to share with you my thoughts, ideas, and anything my mind comes with.
Entry one.
Tags: First Post, First Story, Introduction

Hi.

I am not sure how to start my very first entry off. probably no one will read these but someday in the future I might come back and read them. I want to clarify that I want to keep myself anonymous, I will be talking about things that will be very personal to me, things I don’t want anyone in my life to ever find out. I’m going to be using this as a way to vent. It’s the end of 2020 and I feel like I don’t have a lot of people to talk too.

Here are some things you should know about me :)

I am going to study next year

I adore films, books, gaming, animals, true crime

I suffer from GAD and Depression

I am in a relationship, I have been in one for 3 years

I am currently 19 years old but I’m turning 20 in March.

I’m a female, I’m bisexual and I am mixed but I am more white passing

So yeah. I know I sound boring but I just don’t have that much to say right now for my intro. You’ll learn a lot about me later on with the more entries i write.

I’m scared about writing stuff on here. I dunno why. I’ve never really done this before. I guess it’s just a new thing that’s pushing me out of my comfort box a little.

But yeah I am not to sure how frequently I’ll keep these entries up. Again, this is just for me to vent or just talk about random stuff. Whoever is reading these it’ll be sorta like I am talking to you. I just feel so lonely, I only have 2 close friends but even then I feel like I can’t open up to as much shit as i feel or have been through.

Have you ever felt more comfortable telling strangers your secrets and opening up to them over people you personally know? I do.

Well, I’m going to sign off, I may write another entry in a minute about something who knows. I don’t really have a schedule and this is all free to read. You can jump out of your mind space and jump into mines, see from my issues and perspectives on life, people, situations etc.

Time to love and leave ya,

Are You Telling Me?? I Can Write?? Here?? And Someone May Read??
By: Maria Pires
Tags: Introduction, I Am New Here

Ooof, that’s unbelievable. The way I hadn’t even heard of this, this is awesome, Obama’s on this, woww! What, should this be an introduction? To me, as a writer/person (writer and only then person, how about that)? It might as well, I guess.

As anyone can figure out, I must warn ya I have a lot of ideas and thoughts and they all come out at once. I write right about everything that comes to my mind, and it ranges from the driest to the somewhat-dramatic, at best. English is not my first language, but Imma go ahead and consider myself fluent, at least in whatever level of American this is. I’m very random, I make the weirdest comparisons, and if you feel I just sort of forgot what I was talking about and went in a completely different direction: warn me. I truly do not know. I don’t control any of this, it just flows out of me, or something.

Yes, I’ll probably assassinate your language with these horrendous abbreviations and figures of speech. Grammarly is currently having a stroke seeing this. But in any case, here je suis. Don’t mind the other languages thrown in, I like to sound intellectual, y’know.

I’ll probably do another thing about my passion for writing, but yeah. Nice to meet you, weird random website I only now discovered. This will be a fun journey.

Sincerely,

Me, who’s way too excited about this brand new possibility :))
Intro to my life
Tags: London, My Life, Introduction

So , you might be wondering what im doing with a username like that and quite frankly its self explanatory . I dont like my name . My appelation doesn’t define me . Nothing defines me , there is not a single thing that i have stuck to. Even instruments , i have played 6 different instruments in my life and there is not one i played for over a year. I change my mind too often which is probably why i dont think i know myself. Starting from my aesthetic to my relationship with different people. One day i love you the next i hate you. Who knows maybe tomorrow i’ll love my name and reveal it . Even my relationship with myself is unstable , i do love myself but sometimes i highly doubt it .

I treat everyone like shit and naively think im not going to have any backlash on my actions. I think of myself so prestige that i can wiggle myself out of any situation. Me being a hypocrite will highly critise anyone who does the same.I compare myself to others a lot and am highly insecure about my body which is why I dump oversized clothes on myself.

I also treat myself like shit , i set up a lot of goals in my life and shut most of them down as i dont believe in myself. Im very ungrateful too. I sound so pessimistic but i promise i am also full of surprises.

Oh wait I forgot to mention the basics, im a french teenager living in london .

So , Voila thats me in a 2 min resume ..
INTRODUCTION TO ANGULAR

Tags: Introduction, Angularjs, Google, Programming, Angular

Angular, supported by Google, is a platform and framework for building single-page client applications using HTML and TypeScript. Angular implements core and optional functionality as a set of TypeScript libraries that you import into your apps.

Features of Angular:

Develop across all platforms - build applications and reuse your code and can be deployed as a web app, mobile app, etc. Speed and Performance - (a)maximum speed possible via Web Workers and server-side rendering. (b)Scalable. Incredible Tooling - build features quickly with simple, declarative templates.

Pros of Angular:

Offer clean code development.

Higher performance.

Material Design-like Interface.

An Angular framework takes care of Routing (moving from one view to another is easy).

Seamless Updates using Angular CLI.

Cons of Angular:

There is no clean manual and extensive, all-inclusive documentation.

Scopes are hard to debug Limited Routing.

Angular sometimes becomes slow with pages embedding interactive elements.

Third-party integration is very difficult (Switching from the older versions to the newer ones).

NOTE: I want to suggest a Step by Step Guide: Angular for Beginners course by Nishu Goel ma’am. She is an expert in Angular and her teaching is beginners friendly. So, anyone can start a journey to Angular with this course. Please check this link: https://ouo.io/jfQJua
Welcome to my Life
Tags: Introduction, Dreams, Myself, Poetry, Writing

Have you ever had a dream so big you couldn’t help but think of it 24/7. That’s how I feel about writing. I’m still learning the ins and outs of being a ‘good’ writer (per say), for I’ve only found my love for it in the past 3 years. One thing I’ve learned is that you’ll never stop learning how to write. There is endless possibilities.

Take my story for example; I would always be more excited for the creative writing portion of my tests. Not because I thought I was good at writing, because I was really quiet bad at it, more because it was always the most fun to me. I mean, come on, creating your own world? What’s better than that. You can literally do anything with the power of words.

Once I got to Year 11, my teacher asked us to write a poetic response to a famous poem, so I did that. We had 10 minutes to create a 1 stanza poem. This was mine…

“To My Persuasive Suiter…

For I am much taken aback,

Politeness you so clearly lack.

We do have time, years on years,

So death is not for you to fear.

To have and to hold,

Forgive and forget,

Til’ death do us part,

But not for years yet.

Please be kind and treat me right,

We shall not make love tonight.

That is no way and act of a man,

For I am a lady, not a tramp.”

This was the first poem I had ever seriously written. I was proud of it. I am still proud of it.

Something that you must know about me is that I am a very shy person. I would never volunteer my voice in class. However, when I had written this, I put my hand up confidently and said,

“Miss, can I go first? I’m actually really happy with how mine turned out.”

I read it out and my class clapped for me, and for the first time, I could tell they were genuine. My anxiety wouldn’t allow me to believe any type of applause to be genuine unless it came to my poetry.

From then on, I have been writing poems, short stories and more recently, scripts (or planning them). My heart is spilled on the pages. It’s my therapy. I would love for people to see my work. I would love to be recognised for my passion.

If you have read this far, please be constructive, I will only get worse or stay the same without feedback. I can’t change what I don’t know is broken. However, also note that I am learning everyday off of websites and videos, and hopefully changing my university course to a writing study.

Thank you for reading and happy reading and writing all,

xoxo- B

Hello There

Tags: Introduction

I can’t describe how badly I want to be the main character. Ever since I watched Lord of the Rings, Cinderella and Pirates of the Caribbean I simply can't stop thinking about it. I get that I’m being a narcissist. I know that it’s the people in this world who aren't the main characters that are of real importance: the truckers, the nurses, the construction workers, the people who farm our food that we don't think about twice. But still, I’m writing this in hopes that some poor soul will find my thoughts interesting enough to give them attention and fulfill my need to be the main character in this world. I hope others have felt the same and overcome it. So please, join me on my journey to unlearn this terrible habit of thinking I'm the main character. Help me form habits of selflessness and contentment within my own small, but equally meaningful, life.
A Short Introduction.
By: Will R Howard
Tags: Introduction, Littering, Climate Crisis, Welcome, Hello

I forthwith condemn any inconcise introduction to advertisements fiendishly disguised as internet blog posts, and instead will inform the reader that I am quite usually, apart from some exceptional occasions, entitled by most as the simple, single-sylable name: Will.

The reader may wish to know that my title has a somewhat germanic orgin, and was first introduced to England by none other than “William” the Conquerer himself, after the Norman Conquest of 1066.

I am humbled to be able to be part of this spectacular platform, where writers, thinkers and artists are free as a bird to share their opinions, stories and ideas, to an audience rich with the noble spirit of humanity.

If the readers interests are so, they might also desire to be informed of my style of writing. I like to think that I do like to keep my works as succinct as is possible and, as you may see below and above, in easy, bitesize chunks so that the reader may stop to smell to the air or tinker with their fingernails, without losing their place. You’re welcome.

Tis’ quite possibly also within the surface questions of the reader’s mind as to what genre they will have ladled into their media-thirsty, twenty-first century minds. Well I can tell you this much friends: if the pen (or in this case the keyboard) is indeed mightier than the sword, then what better place to march an army of typography through the fortresses of those who percieve this Earth and their spieces as a place and as people for them to carelessly destroy, than this- the Garden-of-Eden, for the righteous, for the noble, for the people.

Those who find it not in the slightest bit disgusting to toss aside wrappers, paper cups, plastic cups, bottles, bags, boxes, packaging, lottery tickets, cigarette cards, fast-food containers, rubbish, trash, bags full of rubbish, boxes full to with trash, great, gaping vats overflowing with the ghastly, putrid waste that our people will leave like footprints in the snow- a trail, dawdling behind them as they too, dawdle through life, consuming media, eating, sleeping, drinking, disgarding, reproducing and then, finally, dying. You, inhabitants, are the people I write to. If it is in your best interest, the reader may like to know that, though no one will be able to change how you live your lives, writers in this ‘medium’ of creativity: we can change the way you think.

Think about it.

Hello readers,

This is the first time writing on this platform for me, in fact this is the first time I write without pressure from someone else. That was not meant negative. I would like to improve my writing skills in English, learning by doing is what I have been told. My idea is to write two stories per week on this platform. I will write about different topics but most of them will be real life things that I have witnessed or experienced that week. I have a Dutch nationality which I am proud of, currently I do my grocerie shopping in Vienna. It is lovely here to be honest, it looks cold and dry when I peek out my 3rd floor window. The supermarket is around the corner and since a few weeks I recognise faces that live in the same block as me, sounds normal but it took my five months. In the town where I grew up this was different, with 6000 inhabitants you will run into your schoolteacher several times a week, that will not happen here. I have the feeling that this is the end of my first writing, I do not know if somebody is actually going to read this but if you do I hope you liked it. I will publish this now and will figure out more about this platform, ciao.
Entry One: The Beginning
By: Kendall Frobig
Tags: Hello, Introduction, Meettheartist

hey. my name is kendall, i am seventeen years old and i have a lot to say.

a lot of people assume that younger generations are not focused on every day simplicities and moments. but i find myself breaking that stereotype often. i go through life thinking about the many great wonders it has to offer, looking at it through a cinematic view, often hyper analyzing the smallest moments- thus making them out to be something much larger than what they tend to be.

i saw an advertisement for this site on my for you page on tiktok, like i do most things these days. but, regardless, i thought to myself:

“hmm, i write, i don’t have a ton of interesting things to say, but i write. and maybe someone, anyone can find comfort in the things i experience knowing that they are not the only ones experiencing them. what’s the harm?”

and in that moment i decided that i would write. even if no one would read it, even if i was just another cloudy minded teenager amongst a sea of talented writers, even if what i had to say was stupid; that didn’t matter to me because i enjoy writing. i enjoy sitting alone and thinking cinematically, wondering if there is someone out there experiencing the very same feeling that i am. i wonder what they’re thinking, and sometimes i wonder if i am thinking the very same thing.

sometimes i do not understand why i write. maybe it’s because it helps me understand. perhaps so i do not forget anything. but really, i think i write because it helps me get out of my head. with writing i can go anywhere, but often times it’s always the same place.

a window sill, preferably with a mountain range view and some sort of delicate flower and vine combination dancing across the brick outside the window. birds would be singing and fluttering through the sky, the wind would brush my cheek as i glance to my lap. my journal is open, ready for whatever words i thought to put down. on the table next to me would be one of two things: A) a steaming glass of hot chocolate, or B) a freezing glass of coke. next to whatever drink i had chosen that day would be a wide array of pens and pencils just in case i wanted to sketch anything to pair with my writing for the day, and next to that would be my camera.

my camera is something that i hold very dear to my heart. it isn’t too much, but it is my favorite possession. for me, photography is a form of time travel. any experience you have, any moment you share, you can forever still it with a single photograph and that is something of beauty to me.

this image of me is something that i picture often, i like to think of it as my dream reality. somewhere i can only go through writing.

and you know, like i said, writing can really take you anywhere. i suppose my writing has a long list of places it would like to take me.

perhaps, this is only the beginning.
Now Announcing: The Pub Pub.
By: Victoria A. Fraser
Tags: Introduction, Publication, Medium, Announcements, Writing

Oh sorry for the confusion. It’s not that kind of pub, it’s the publication kind! I just wanted to make a pun by including a beer in the logo. It’s hard to find good pubs to follow or to write for, so I decided to start pub to solve that problem after some encouragement from my writing group (shout out to Dr. Marina Harris who was overwhelmingly supportive).

So welcome to the pub pub (heh). It’s got a silly name, sure, but we will be writing very serious articles about pubs you should check out. Kidding. I can’t be serious. We’ll make pub lists and announcements, but it will be chill.

Tell us about all your pubs!

We are open to all writers. If you’re announcing a new pub then reach out! If you follow awesome pubs you think more people should follow, write a list of them and send it! If you just like to say the word pub then SAY IT AS LOUD AS YOU CAN!

The pub pub is the pub for your pubs.

Oh, you’re still here? Um, well let’s grab a beer then and talk about pubs.

Introduction

If you came across my page I am more than excited for you to have a peek into my life. I would like to give some warning a head of time, that there are going to be some sensitive topics being mentioned, I will be stating in the beginning of my story or journal or whatever I may be writing about to either prepare yourself or for you to click away. As you read my work, I would greatly appreciate some feedback on anything including, what do you want me to write about next, or even grammatical errors that might be driving you crazy. I also want to say that everything I write about will bring out a side of me that either people see all the time or they have never seen it before, if you are one of those people, I’m sorry. You may see the bright, out-going, energetic me. I feel as though I can bring my true self out through my writing.

Background on me

I am a typical 18 year old girl that just needs to write her feelings out, I have been bottling upon bottling how I feel, now it is to the point that I’m just going to burst into flames. I have been through a lot through out my life-time as an 18 year old. My pieces I want people to relate and know that they are not alone, although you may not know me just know you are never alone. You can always contact me through any social media platform.

Thank you ahead of time for reading my pieces.

My first story
By: Kyra Hogan
Tags: Introduction, My First Story, Myself

I don’t usually write stories. Unless it’s for a grade in english class. Other than that, I would never voluntarily write down words upon words for fun. In this case, I figured, I have every platform of social media, with all my friends on them. This is the only place where I can write down my thoughts and not get judged by my friends for it. Every person wants to express their thoughts but some feel the judgement before even daring to say/write them. This is going to be my safe space.

I’ll start by introducing myself. Hello, my name is Kyra Hogan. I found this site off of a girl on TikTok and it seemed like a great idea. Now i’m testing that out. I’m not exactly sure how this works, if someone could give me some pointers, that would be great. I live in New York, the snow here is INSANE! My crappy Ford Fusion slid three times yesterday on my way to work. Crazy. I work at a pizza shop. I’m fairly new so, I don’t know many people there, i barely talk unless it’s with a customer. Outside of work on the other hand, I don’t stop talking. I guess my anxiety just hits me most at work, thinking i’m going to say the wrong thing and my coworker isn’t going to like me. But isn’t silence even worse? Ugh. Theirs not really much to say to someone while you’re folding pizza boxes with them. I stand there, watching the clock, waiting to go home and watch Netflix. I’m currently watching The 100 as of right now, it’s GREAT! I guess i’m into more un-realistic tv shows since my other favorites include The Walking Dead and Stranger Things. I think that’s enough about me for right now, heck, i don’t even know if i’m doing this site correctly. If I am and decide not to delete this though, now you know about me:) I’d love for others to introduce themselves, ILOVE making new friends. See you soon. -Kyra
FINALLY LAST MONTH OF 2020 CAME
Tags: My Fist Story, Introduction, Blogging

MY FIRST BLOG — Here I will share some memories of 2020 and about myself.

Hello everyone ! I hope you all are fine? It’s my first blog I hope you like it. So finally last month of 2020 came. I wish you all enjoy a last month.

So moving forward today I am going to share some memories of 2020 so as we all know that this year definitely brought some problems in life of all of us due to this corona virus. Because of this corona many people lost their life. Some people died because of not getting food due to lack of money and some people died due to virus. Because of corona every country announced a LOCKDOWN in country. Due to lockdown every people who living in different cities wanted to go their home back but to lockdown they can’t go anywhere. In this critical condition our doctors and police did not stop working. We were all at home with our family but our doctor kept fighting against corona without caring for their own life. This year we lost many of our celebrity this year gives us many problems 😰. May I hope that the coming new year brings lots of happiness in the life of all of us. May all your wishes be fulfilled.

SO NOW I WILL SAY ABOUT MYSELF

SO FIRST WHO I AM?

My name is satyam tiwari and I am 20 year old filmaking student and trying to learn the lessons of life

WHERE AM I FROM?

I am from India and in India I am leaving in Mumbai ( city of dreams), born in varashi ( known for peace, culture and it’s also called MOKSHA DHAM )

WHAT I DO?

I am currently in my second year of college and I’m doing a course in ( BAFTNMP) — Bacelors of arts in film, tv and new media production.

WHY I START BLOG?

how i found my way here
Tags: Introduction, Money, Hi, Me, Lonely

I saw a tiktok saying that you can make money on here. I found it really strange that there’s a website where you can share all of your ideas and somehow make money off of it. Still not sure how that works but I will test it out. I don’t like when people are like “oh I need money” “aw man I’m poor” “oh shoot my life is sad, poor me.” But yeah I am also a hypocrite, so here it goes. Right now I need money. I just bought my first car and I am going to college soon. My mom is also lowkey kicking me out, but that story is going to be a separate post. So in conclusion, if this can make me a little dinero IM ALL IN. Hopefully my prompts don’t bore you, and hopefully I don’t become famous on here because I am probably going to spill all my guts and secrets. Enjoy.

I’m Hannah, I’m doing this for fun and hopefully a bit of cash. I plan on writing about things I enjoy such as language learning, cooking, and art! I think in the beginning my blogs/writings probably won’t be the best because I’m not super used to writing for an audience.

Hope you enjoy your stay, and my writing!

Honestly I find writing to be quite the tedious task however usually it’s a skill most people want my therapist wants me to have a more creative outlook on things and to “document my feelings” most of my writings will have poor grammar and punctuation however this will not stop

me from documenting my feelings and enjoying whatever I want to write because sometimes it’s fun and other times not so much.
Me
By: Allison Harvey
Tags: Introduction, Intro

Hey everyone! My name is Allison Harvey. I played softball at Princeton and graduated in 2020 with an degree in Pubic and International Affairs. I’m from Orange County, CA and I love coffee (just black, go ahead and call me crazy), sports (diehard 49er fan here), and the beach (who doesn’t?). I’m currently taking a gap year and planning to attend law school in the fall of 2021.

I’ve been checking out Medium for a while now, but I’m not much of a writer myself. I love reading various articles from writers of all different experience levels and backgrounds, so I figured I’d give this a shot.

I didn’t have a plan when I got kicked off campus mid-March, except that I would have to take the LSAT and apply to schools. Luckily, I connected with an alumna and joined this super cool startup. Working for a startup has been such an experience. I’ve probably already learned more in the past few months than I would have doing anything else. Every day is a learning experience. I feel like I get way more responsibility than a 22-year-old would get at any other company. It’s been nice (and often a challenge) working at home, which has given me a lot of free time and material to write about.

Hit that follow button if you want to read about some of my experiences at a startup and working during a pandemic as a recent grad. I’ll also probably sprinkle in some quarantine musings, sports, coffee, and (socially distanced for the time being) adventures with friends.

Happy reading!

I Watch Television
By: Caroline Allen
Tags: Radical Self Acceptance, Introduction, Television, Intentions, What To Watch

When I was born, the very late 70s (October 79), the television was on an upward trajectory. It was changing from black and white to color, network to cable, one size, to all sizes, even hand-held, and it was all trash, a waste of time and space, a drain on the brain of the future of the world. Despite this, the television as a medium of entertainment has continued to evolve, invent, and reinvent itself.

Now, trapped in my apartment, with little but a dog, a kitchen, a computer, and a large television set, I have embarked on a journey of radical self-acceptance. I have embraced the reality that I watch a lot of television, and that’s…okay. I read A LOT in undergraduate and graduate school, especially non-fiction. Now, I read non-fiction constantly. Now, I watch television, a lot. I call it literature, text.

I took a class in graduate school called “Cultural Theories.” I made a ‘B’ because I took it out of order and did not get it. Then, I took the class on literary theory (criticism), and it all made perfect sense. How do I use literary criticism to explain the world around me (culture)? I look at the world around me as literary text (cultural theory). Yes. I look at television as literature in an effort to avoid beating myself up for my new lifestyle because I believe television is currently responsible for forcing a paradigm shift that has been a long time coming. Television is changing our culture, whether we like it or not and fueling conversations that we need to be having anyway.

I like telling people what to watch and why to watch it. I have good taste, and I’m funny. A close friend told me to write about what I watched so that I felt, you know, like a capable member of society. Despite the fact that I teach English and composition to ages 5–40 and literally AM a capable member of society, I feel I need this. It brings me joy. So, enjoy.

Hello and thank you for stumbling across my blog!

My name is Alec Scully, I am 25 at the time of writing this, and I am now a graduate of the Flatiron Software Engineering program! I am going to be using this blog to help convey thoughts and explain through some concepts that I may have struggled with understanding during my studies with Flatiron and beyond. Also note that some posts may not be directly code related, but will have concepts that in practice could make you more productive all around.

I have a bachelors degree in computer science from West Chester University, but through some poor life choices, and a general distaste of coding from my schooling, I haven’t broken through into the career field yet. I want to use this blog to track my progress and understanding and continue to grow into a successful software developer.

Happy coding, and thanks for coming along with me on this journey.

Hi, all! My name is Cait and I recently started working as an editor at Towards Data Science. As I don’t have an active presence on Medium besides my role at TDS, I thought I’d introduce myself and my background here.

I’m currently finishing up my degree in English at McGill University, and I am a journalist and editor by training. While my academic and professional experience lies in print and digital journalism, I am especially passionate about Digital Humanities and bridging the gap between technical knowledge and social/cultural issues. I believe that making complex concepts accessible and easily digestible is extremely important, and I’m excited to help further that mission at TDS. Everyone should have accessible Data Science education and I think TDS plays a very valuable role in that effort.

In my first few months at TDS I learned a lot about data science (and really expanded my technical vocabulary)! While editing, I am especially drawn to pieces that apply a technical approach to a social or cultural phenomenon and provide a humanities-centred analysis to them.

I’m looking forward to helping grow TDS as a publication and resource for the general public, and hope that I will grow and learn along with it.

Please feel free to reach out to me via Twitter, LinkedIn, or email me at cait@towardsdatascience.com if you have any questions :)
ABOUT ME- Godsoe 🧿

Tags: Introduction, Ｍedium, Writers On Medium

Greetings, Earthlings! My Mother named me Ethan Godsoe. I’m a Medium Writer

From Saint John, New Brunswick; Canada.

A wee Ghetto city on the East Coast where Lowlifes and Lobsters are your

friends/main draw to the Area. Yes, people

Think of Canada as this open-mind utopia where the Tiddies swing freely in the breeze and everyone’s a major pot-head but, it’s sure Never been that way here.

I’ve always been fond of Words and language. My Mom read to Me while I

Was still in the womb and; my Dad has a large Vocabulary. He’d speak in crazy rhymes and phrases to set my still-developing Mind a jumble. I have to give them credit where it’s Due.

Besides early childhood experiences my most important influences are Sylvia (Plath), Anne Sexton, Kafka, Kerouac,

Bukowski and Henry Darger. Along with some hints of Trilochan, Kabir Ji And Sai Baba From The East.

I’m interested in expanding my own Consciousness and that of Others. In making complacent people aware, weep, laugh, shudder, and Above all- QUESTION

The functional parts of their Existence.

In the future I’ll be Writing more Letters. Publishing many more articles. Shooting photographs of the reality I know. Expect a Poetry Collection called “Motorcycles In The Walls” in 2021.
Introductory post or Why I write.

Tags: First Post, Introduction, Blog, Study, Learning

What will the aim of this blog be?

Well, I am not here to indoctrinate. An idea should be sacred, as it is one product of our mind. I am here to learn maybe as you are and I am not here to teach I am here to show. I am embarking on a journey of study, and I hope that the thing that will stop me from growing to be my end. You, my reader, are not to be taught but to be guided as you are not my student, but my partner and I would love to have you as my companion in this journey.

I think that we have to mention first some things about myself. I have 20 years and I am an young man. My country of birth is Romania and I am happy to study law in it. I am interested in many fields of study and these interests will come in the spotlight. I will write about international law, literature, economics, international politics and maybe more, but through these writings I will try to learn as you do.

The first that will be undertaken through a series of posts is how to write or as I like to call it, METAWRITING. Through the series, I will present the lessons that I’ve learned and use each of them in my writing as the series advances by applying them and using examples. But this should not be just a summary of the courses, videos and books that I use and should also contain some of my own thoughts and ideas.

-Introduction-

Hello there! Welcome! My name is Fernanda and I am a 15 year old Mexican girl. I go by the pronouns she/her. I am a huge fan of One Direction (specially Harry Styles haha). I love to play tennis and am a passionate feminist. I consider myslef addicted to my phone, I can’t live without it. On average, I spend about 5 hours a day on it. Writting isn’t really my thing but it has helped me through some dark points in my life. Quarantine has been difficult for everyone. I am grateful for my house, my Family, my food, my clothes, my bed, I am grateful I am sane. This doesn’t mean I can’ t sometimes be unhappy with my life. Because of the pandemic, I haven’t been able to hug my friends for nine months, I haven’t gone to aparte, a restaurant, or any pubic space. The problem is my friends have. They go to parties, they meet new people, they make new friends, they hug each other, they do teenager stuff. I know I am doing the right thing staying home and caring about the pandemic but sometimes it’s just hard to see someone living the life you want to be living. It’s hard to think that you are wasting your valuable teenage years locked in your house. Enough about the pandemic. I know I am the only one who is going to read this but in case it gets to anyone, I would love to know. If this blog gets to you, please let me know. Just reply, let me know. Thank you for Reading, you are loved. — Fer:)
My 8 Second Introduction

My 8 Second Introduction

8 seconds. This is the average human’s attention span, according to Microsoft’s 2015 study. Not long at all really, is it? I can feel these seconds slipping, so now that I’ve got your attention, I’ll dive right in.

Hi, I’m Ellie! Just another girl who has always wanted to create a blog and tick it off my bucket list. I’m excited to get stuck in, as I’ve always been intrigued to explore journalism in greater depth. If 2020 wasn’t the year for a blog, then when would be?

The fact that I’m a final year student studying English at Bournemouth University has certainly pushed me to create this blog. One of my units is ‘News and Journalism’ and our next assignment is to write six blog posts on journalism itself. My blog posts will surround the legal challenges facing journalists, microblogging and multimodality through social media itself.

Those 8 seconds have now evaporated, and it’s pretty mad that you will never get them back. One piece of wisdom that I’ve learnt from my past experience is that you have to stop thinking “I’ll leave this until later” or “I’ll do this tomorrow”. It’s ridiculously easy to fall into this harmful cycle (trust me, I would know!) but “tomorrow” is not guaranteed, neither is “later”, no matter how hard you pine over it. Do it now. Time is the most valuable essence, which is why journalism relies on the now and the present. This is is all we have.

“You think you’ve got time, that’s where you’re going wrong.” Jack Kornfield.

Introduction to the Virtual Hostel, “The Wander Years”

The Wander Years is a publication for all ages, ethnicities, genders, and personality types. Recollections can be recent or dug up from a distant past. They can be funny, sad, insightful, or inspiring. They can express fear, love, transformation, self-discovery, or education, as long as there’s a takeaway. What did you learn? How did you change? These questions should drive your narrative.

Traveling doesn’t always mean flying overseas. Maybe something crazy happened to you on your commute to work one day. In my eyes, that counts. We don’t all have the opportunity to travel long distances, especially right now. So don’t be afraid to get a little creative.

I’m not looking for research-based, how-to articles, or even advice pieces. These stories should read like a journal entry. I’m looking for first-hand, true events. Stories can be of any length, but I’d prefer them to be at least three minutes of reading time each.

Here are a few examples from the publication:
An Introduction…
By: Eric B. Jones
Tags: Introduction, Greetings, Welcome

Greetings! My name is Eric B. Jones and I have come to Medium to carve out a new space for my writing. I am a self-proclaimed (my family would proclaim me as well) film buff. As far back as I can remember, I have always been enamored with the art of cinema as well as cinema history. I believe my cinematic diet evolved from multiple sources. One was my grandmother, who I would watch older films with and developed an appreciation for the stylings of classical Hollywood cinema. My mother was also an influence. She loves films based in history and through that, I learned to understand the stories behind the stories of films. The last is my father, who loves science fiction and that opened my eyes to a genre that is capable of connecting to many other genres.

I love watching films and reading into them. Over the years I’ve felt my knowledge and capabilities in analyzing films increase and I want to share that and hopefully connect with other cinephiles as well. I began writing years ago with my first blog DeaconsDen. This space was my first foray in providing content. The blog is still very important to me, but I would like to expand and really show the world what I have to say on this art form I’ve loved since childhood. I hope my perspective is one people look to uncover.
Greetings!

Hello everyone! It’s been a while for me to (actually) write blogs…sort of. You can say that I have some hiatus from doing anything since I graduated from my master's study in July. However, I will give writing on Medium a try by moving all my (notably….done well) assignment writings during my previous study to give you some insights (also asking for comments and feedback as well!). As you can see, probably this page will be my writings portfolio ;) (and will be connected with my side-project: @popculturenut on Instagram!)

Enjoy!
