JAKOB'S QUEST FOR SANITY

My name is Jakob Shanks, I live in Queensland, Australia. In my life, I've worked as a removalist, a programmer, a security officer, a dog trainer, and a general handyman. I am currently studying for my Bachelor of Psychology. I also have Persistent Depressive Disorder. And, I am naturally curious about most topics... I've tried to start this blog a few times over the last two years. The premise behind the blog has evolved from being a simple collection of my creative works to hopefully, also including my academic writing, and now I hope to add commentary about news and current events.
