So…apparently my prefrontal cortex is fully developed.
To be quite honest, I am not even entirely sure of what the above means biologically speaking and also it might actually be a myth. All I am fully aware of is that I am 25 and well, I am not a fan and loadshedding still exists! Where did the ten years vanish to and…
