Entry 11 - Mental Health

Mental health isn’t just about avoiding illness — it’s about how we think, feel, and navigate daily life. Just like physical health, our mental well-being affects everything: relationships, work, decision-making, and how we handle stress.

Yet for many, mental health still feels like a taboo topic. We’re often taught to “tough it out” or keep our feelings to ourselves. But ignoring mental health can lead to burnout, anxiety, depression, and a host of other issues.

It’s time to change that, because taking care of your mind is just as important as taking care of your body.

Join me, as the next series of blog posts will talk about different aspects of mental health, and we talk about some real hard topics, with some extra research (yay!)

Anyways, until then, take care!

Entry #1 - Writing What You Know

So this is my first time writing a blog. I’ve read blogs before, and I’ve dabbled in a bit of creative writing before, but this is the first time I’m making a blog. This blog will contain some personal lessons to creative writing that I’ve learnt along the way, or perhaps something interesting that piqued my interest. That being said, I should perhaps start with an introduction. My name is Hans Morris, I’m from India and I’m turning 21 this December. I love to read books, listen to music and play video games. I can play the drums and I enjoy playing football and badminton. Now, onto the topic for today, Writing What You Know . I know this seems like something obvious, after all, how can you write about something you don’t know? But I have come to the realisation that this also applies to more than just a plot. For example, let’s take one of the activities we had to do. For the said activity, we had to borrow 2 books from the library, find a few key points from skimming, and wri...

Short Story: The Dream-Walker

 The Dream-Walker Art generated by AI Was written while listening to music from:   Lo-Fi Music In the ethereal realm of dreams, where reality blurs and imagination reigns supreme, there are those who have the ability to traverse between dreams. They are known as Dream-Walkers. Waking up within a dream is not the way I’d have liked to find out I am one. My name is Alex, and I’m an 18-year-old from Australia. This is how I joined the most dangerous occupation in the world.   Slowly awakening, my senses immediately immerse me in a surreal landscape within the confines of my own mind. The scenery is tinged with delicate shades of pink, casting an ethereal glow over the surroundings. In the air, countless particles float about, swirling and dancing within a mesmerising display. Winding pathways and towering structures stretch out before me, creating a fantastical cityscape of neural highways and majestic towers. Whispers of memories and dreams fill the air, adding to the surr...

Short Story: Melodia

 Melodia Art generated by AI Was written while listening to music from:   Lo-Fi Music In the heart of the bustling city, amidst the cacophony of everyday life, there exists a hidden alley, where the walls whisper secrets and the shadows dance to unheard melodies. It is here that a young musician, Ava, stumbles upon a dusty old pawnshop, with its sign barely visible through the layers of grime. As Ava pushes open the creaky door, she is enveloped by the musty scent of old books and the faint aroma of antique wood. The interior of the pawnshop was dimly lit, with shelves lined haphazardly with various oddities and treasures of years gone by. The air was heavy with a sense of mystery, and Ava felt a thrill of excitement as she browsed through the eclectic collection of items. Amidst the clutter, her eyes land on a peculiar item tucked away in a corner—a small instrument, unlike any she had seen before. It is about the size of her hand, with intricate carvings adorning its smooth ...
