How I Became More Eco-Friendly
When I really started hitting this "produce as little waste as possible and make environmentally friendly choices" journey, I got a lot of strange looks. Since I was young I was "weird" about the earth, as my mother would say. I would make minor environmentally friendly choices, such as recycling when I could and not using plastic bags, but I was so young I thought I couldn't do much more. This thought stuck with me for a while.

Izzy SomervillePublished 6 years ago in LongevityVegan: What, Why
These days, we hear a lot about vegetarian and vegan food. These two things are really different and I consider that a lot of people don’t really know the difference.

We’ve all been there: stressed, depressed, tired, low on motivation. It seems like a never ending cycle, right?

Or is it?

Victoria LimPublished 6 years ago in LongevityMy First Story...Going Vegan!
So I decided to go vegan back in 2017; I believe it was about September I started making some slow changes. I decided to go vegan for health benefits because most food I was eating was making me bloat and feel sluggish! So after hearing some people say going vegan was great and not just for the animals I decided "why not?!" so I did some research and have been slowly changing! Rome wasn't built in a day!
Koala SkreamsPublished 6 years ago in LongevityMinimalism
Recently I've been looking into minimalism, I've watched a couple of TedTalks about it, some YouTube videos here and there and I realised, I've sort of already been doing it without thinking. See, my mother is a hoarder. She keeps everything, from an awful drawing I made at 8 years old to a folded piece of A4 paper I once wrote "I love you, Ma" on. I, however, never understood why it mattered. Whats the point?

The alarm goes off at precisely 4:30 AM. I hear the familiar melody screaming at me from the hallway. Groaning, I force my bleary eyes open, one after the other. My hand reaches out for the light switch, scrambling in the dark. Bright light invades my bed and pulls my legs over the edge. All the while, the alarm continues to beat itself into my skull. I quickly stumble toward the hallway to relieve myself of this assault on my tranquility. By 4:31, I have successfully beaten both the alarm and my own propensity to stay snuggled up in a warm bed. I head to the kitchen to begin my day...
