The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild - The "Sweet Spot" of Action-Adventure Video Games

It has been over a year in the making, but I finally purchased a Nintendo Switch. As for my first Switch game purchase, it was a difficult choice, but I purchased Breath of the Wild over Super Mario Odyssey. I wanted my first Switch game-playing experience to be an enriching, rewarding one. What better than to start with the latest installment of one of the classic action-adventure video game series.

Borderlands 2: My Stress-Relief Game

en.wikipedia.org

I have fond memories of playing Borderlands 2 on the PS3 years ago. So, when Sony announced that Borderlands: The Handsome Collection will be the free PS Plus game for the month of June, I was quick to download the game as I was excited to play Borderlands 2 again after so many years. In addition, I have not played all the Borderlands 2 DLC, as well as Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, so this was a nice bonus. I am just going to focus on Borderlands 2 for this post.

Why A Logic Concert Has Me Thinking About My Current Situation

I went to a rap concert not too long ago, where YBN Cordae, J.I.D., and Logic (the headliner) performed on stage. This was my first arena concert and my first concert since university (where I tried to make friends by going to see Metric at a makeshift stage on the university grounds). The concert was entertaining, and the rappers were constantly interacting with the crowd in unique ways. I was particularly impressed with the creation of the lighting effects at the concert.

I try not to go to these kinds of restaurants because they are incredibly expensive, but I have made an exception to this rule and decided to check this steakhouse out. If you have the funds, it does not hurt to go to a fine dining restaurant once in a while. Here are my thoughts.

The Subtle Art Of Reading Modern Self-Help Books


I have been on a binge on reading 'self-help' books recently. Whenever I feel down for an extended period, I would see what the best-selling modern self-help books are, and hope that my local library would have a copy to borrow. The modern self-help books I have read have given me a more positive outlook on life and a more positive attitude (in the short-term). When I talk about modern self-help books, my definition of a modern self-help book is that the language and communication of a book appeals to a younger audience. Younger audiences may not have the attention span to read a self-help book of a medical or psychological nature.
