          3 weeks in a row, I had Friday to Sunday off. The first 2 times I just wasted it. But, this time, I decided to do something productive. I decided to challenge myself into reading 3 books in those 3 days. I had been...

         I came across this amazing author, Robert M. Drake via his Instagram account. I’m a romantic for words. You know those images where there’s distinct text on it? I can’t not look at those when they appear on my timeline. And just like that once I saw...
