Vegan: 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. I want to inform you more about veganism because I think it is important for people to understand how beautiful vegans's vision of life is.

Rise & Grind
We’ve all been there: stressed, depressed, tired, low on motivation. It seems like a never ending cycle, right? We all want to be happy as much as the next person, yet it seems like no matter how hard we try, we just can’t seem to make it work which in turn, seems to make us more stressed and depressed — truly a never ending cycle! Or is it?

It is Time for a Fresh Start: How to Become Health Aficionado in 2018
The modern age has made it difficult for a person to maintain health and energy. Today we are sleeping less, we do not have time to do sports, we are constantly sitting behind the screen, and we are exposed to a greater amount of stress, which has even become one of the modern chronic diseases.

My 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!

Minimalism
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?

How to Wake up Before 5 AM
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...

What I've Learned About My Body: 2nd Day of Veganism (It Isn't Great)
I started my journey of veganism a few days ago, March 11 to be exact. Before I get into telling you about how my body is now, let me give you some background about what my body typically is like. I am an out-of-shape college student and I eat ramen and junk food basically everyday. My digestion system is terrible; I maybe use the bathroom (number two) three times a week. My skin is oily and acne prone however, I do drink a ton of water. Before I started eating plant-based, I typically ate meat and dairy every day and multiple times throughout the day. Breakfast usually consisted of a sugary cereal with cow milk, lunch would be fast food (Chick Fil A, Chipotle) and dinner was usually skipped due to my busy schedule and studying.
