Summer update
Hi there, It took a bit longer than usual to get back to the blog after my last post. As many of you probably assumed, my final exam and thesis got intense in the past month and I didn’t even have time to give you […]
A Promise
The months since January began have been trying. Combining and balancing research, thesis writing and all my regular course work has been hard. Really hard. I do love my research topic and enjoy discovering more and more about it. It is just that the […]

Hello folks! A week ago Alela Diane played a gig in the city in which I live! I coudn’t believe it when I saw it on her touring schedule! As older readers might remember, Alela is my favourite singer. I’ve been into her music ever […]
