Welcome to my personal encyclopedia of different types of boys you can encounter in the wild. I describe the three most common types of men with a major amount of stereotyping, so don´t call me out on that. The main purpose of this post is pure fun, okay? I offer three different perspectives: who I believe they are, who women typically think they are (often romanticising them), and who they are in most cases. Don´t quote me on it, take it with humour, take a seat, and enjoy!

Living alone is a blast and a blessing for all the distracted, chaotic people like me. The adjective "chaotic" is probably not how my family would describe me. Especially not after coming into my apartment, where everything is put away and has a designated spot, and God forbid I find it elsewhere. Or after choosing a meal the day before from the restaurant´s online menu. But my mind is a hot mess. Imagine the scene from The Pirates of the Caribbean 3 , where The Black Pearl a

If you remember my post, I met myself for a coffee , this is a sequel I wrote at the end of August. Enjoy! It was a Friday morning, and I was sitting in a tram. I sipped a cup of coffee I made myself at work, and I was on my way to my apartment. Then I saw her. It was the teenage me, sitting a few rows before me, eyeing the cup of coffee in my hand. She didn´t drink coffee, and never thought she would. I waved at her to come over. When she asked, why am I drinking it, I said

Jestli počítáš s rovnicemi na papíře nebo s lidmi v realitě je vlastně docela podobné. Jednoduše se snažíš, aby ti vyšlo něco, u čeho nevíš pár neznámých. Člověk to vidí okolo sebe a říká si, všem to vychází, proč by to nemohlo vyjít i mně? Jenže zrada! Někdy příklady ostatních mají méně neznámých než ty tvoje. Moje vztahy jsou jako rovnice bez zadání, které na mě vyzývavě koukají na prázdném papíře a já nevím, čeho mám vlastně docílit. Vím, čeho chci docílit JÁ, ale pak zjis

What do you mean, I have to make an effort to see my parents? I went from bumping into them in the kitchen to scheduling coffee dates to catch up. I don´t know whether they have plans for the weekend, unless I call them. Moving out on your own brings many changes, and most of them you see coming, but sometimes they arrive in a slightly different package. For example, the change in the relationship with your parents. I didn´t expect my presence to actually be missed. This soun

I swear to the gods there´s nothing more humiliating and frustrating than waiting for an invite to an interview or a date. In an ideal world, you would be presented at the beginning of your life with a nice starter pack. Hi, Viki, welcome to life! Here is your brochure. You are to be a publicist for a lifestyle magazine, and we also added a few other options in case you get bored. As our holiday special, you can try a year living on an Icelandic farm! Oh, and your boyfriend´s

With September slowly bringing colder weather, it seems like a perfect opportunity to look back on my summer. I was mostly working, preparing to move out, and spending some lovely time with my family and friends. On the other hand, I also lost my job, felt overwhelmed about all the choices I had to make regarding my apartment, got dumped, and had to put in extra work to submit a corrected version of my bachelor's thesis. As you can see, I definitely wasn´t bored. But let´s ta

Sometimes it feels like life is screening a movie just for the sight of our eyes. The misty mornings with rays of sunshine, the birds singing in the forest, or the smell of grass when you open a window in the countryside. These are the moments that feel like a secret between life and you. In a book called Women Living Deliciously by Florence Given, the author presents the idea that if you look for it, love actually is all around. Wait. My bad. That is from the movie Love, Ac

When I get a degree, I will be happy. When I get a job, I will value myself. When I move out, I will pat myself on the back. These big...

I admit, I do like to mock typical men's behaviour, toxic masculinity traits and patriarchy in general. History has been and still is fucked up for women in so many ways. But let´s not keep it black and white. There is a reason women share a certain amount of hatred towards men. 80% of persons arrested for violent crimes are male. When a poll asked what would you do if men disappeared for 24 hours , most women said they would go for a walk or a run at night. Nothing crazy, j

A sentence that shaped my childhood and teenage years. Let´s get rid of it in the womanhood! There is a lot of pressure on us girls to get along with the crowd but stand out enough to be noticed. I´m sure it also concerns boys, but you don´t hear that much;  you´re not like other boys . So, let´s stay focused on women. There´s so much negativity linked to girls that it´s no wonder we try to differentiate ourselves from them. You run like a girl, you throw like a girl, you whi
