Mirage

Darkness engulfs me, Heart screaming with pain, Frantic head looking for a coup d'oeil of hope, When I realised, wasn't I always chained in this maze?

DEEP CUTS: POPULAR ARTISTS' SONGS YOU HAVEN'T HEARD

Let's get this out of the way first: what do you mean by a deep cut? A deep cut usually refers to non-radio singles by an artist (which tend to be often underplayed), and older songs. Usually fans who are really into the artist will know the tracks but not most casual listeners.

Meander

We set letters on fire, Paper catching flame like melting volcanoes; Watch the blue as it bleeds dry, Holding onto roses that expire.

One heirloom, many wolves

There are books that you read just for the sake of reading. There are books that make you skip a bundle of pages to avoid the dullness. And then there are books that don't allow you to skip even a single page. Rich People Problems is one such book.

The Abandoned Ship

I sail on this abandoned ship, Which sails no more, The wind stops its howling, And the ship already left the shore.

The hair tonic that changed my life

Keeping up with the trends, I used to frequently dye my hair, which had resulted in the brittle and drab hair that you can find in my old #badhairday selfies on Instagram. Despite the tons of products that I had used to repair my hair, nothing seemed to reverse the damage that the dyes had caused.

Thoughts of a Hilsha

You know they're coming for you. By now, they've taken most of your siblings. Last time, you managed to slip out somehow. It was pure luck, really. But the big day is getting closer and they are desperate. They need to round up as many of you as they can.

People according to Earth-shapes

I apologise for the muffled noise in the closet; I had to tie up every scientist in the world before embarking on this article. Anyway, let's pretend we've all lost our sense of logic and basic knowledge of EVERYTHING for a while, and talk about what your Earth-shape preference says about you.

The best Far Cry game in a while

When we think about Ubisoft titles, a few preconceived notions pop up. Some people refer to them as “tower climbing simulators.” Some people think the vast open worlds are just filled up with mundane activities. Well, suffice to say, Far Cry 5 not only puts those concerns to rest, but it also serves up some of the most organic emergent gameplay ever found in a sandbox shooter.

Which Kardashian are you?

You regularly post about how difficult it is living with social anxiety and routinely get into fights with the others for normalising having anxiety. You like showing off your trophies and bragging about all the things you have achieved at such a young age and ending that sentence with “But, I really don't like to show off”. You can be a bit extra sometimes and everyone knows that it isn't home-made face mask that makes your skin glow like you claim it to be. It's high time you admit that you're wearing highlighters.

In the world of Tsundoku

I came across the word “Tsundoku” in the Facebook group Litmosphere. I've recently formed a habit of buying new books, leaving them unread, and then buying some more. From my regular encounter with them (me starting at them on the shelf and them staring back at me hard) the piled up books seem old after a while.

FOREVER

I woke up with a start. It seemed to me that I was drifting between the past and the future, interspersed with fleeting glances of the present. Through my blurry vision, I could see a ceiling fan droning on with its blades, as if it was trying to suck in all the air in this little room along with the smallest wind of life that was still left within me.

Are you not entertained?

Domina is a gladiatorial management sim where you train and house a bunch of gladiators to fight for you in The Pits or the Colosseum. That's pretty much it. Oh and your gladiators have permadeath of course, so don't get attached to the 650HP Thraex that's going to die to a 400HP Murillo.

A day in the life of a gamepad

Dawn arrives with first light—no wait it's the middle of the day, what gives? The answer is soon revealed as I realise I was at the bottom of a pile of dirty laundry. Banished to the corner, never to be seen again until the hour of need arrives, my suspicions prove to be true as I am swiftly plugged into the computer. It's time to get ready for the ordeal all over again.

How to get out of a reading slump

People used to frown at me whenever they saw me slipping a book into my bag wherever I went, be it a journey or a party. My friends and family knew me well enough to buy my favourite books and bookmarks on my birthday and help me by not letting me go broke trying to buy originals. I could talk about books all day and judge people who thought the movie was better than the book it was based on. But that's all in the past.
