Super excited to announce that I’ve moved to the capital city of Norway, Oslo. It’s been busy getting everything prepared for this move hence why I’m only revealing this after I have already arrived. This whole move was probably the most stressful, worrying but serendipitous trip especially having travelled during a pandemic. Either way, I’m…
A Day in the life of a quarantined Energy Analyst
This is my working space in my room. Don’t judge my ghetto lamp it fell down a few weeks ago and the lampshade broke off 😂. I usually start the day listening to some music or interesting podcasts on Youtube. I have a Rubik’s cube on my desk as I’m trying to solve one on…
Describe yourself?
“Tell me more about yourself?”; “Who are you?”; “Describe yourself in three words?” Whenever someone asks me any of these questions, my palms get sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy… haha no, but on a serious note though my mind always goes blank and I never know what to say because I don’t think I…

Energy Analyst reacts: The Devil wears Prada (Miranda Priestly)
Ok, I know, this movie is about a fashion magazine and therefore technically has got NOTHING to do with the energy industry. Or does it? Today I’ve decided to break down and analyze “The Devil Wears Prada” directed by David Frankel, which I admit I have lost count just how many times I’ve rewatched this…

Energy Analyst reacts: The Cloverfield Paradox horror movie
I have a background in sustainable energy engineering and experience working as an Energy Trader and Analyst.

Stoic Bites: Seneca the Younger (#02)
The whole future lies in uncertainty: live immediately. Lucius Annaeus Seneca (c. 4 BC – AD 65) Seneca was a Roman stoic philosopher, statesman, and dramatist.
