I’ll admit it, lockdown has been boring. With not being able to work, it’s hard to find things to keep myself entertained each day as I wait for my visa approval letter. One thing that I have managed to do is write letters to friends. Does anyone write letters anymore? I know I’m not thatContinue reading “Letter Writing”

February
Is it just me or did January fly by really fast? When I turned over the calendars today, it didn’t feel right. My January wasn’t particularly busy. I was mostly stuck at home trying to fill my days with something constructive (besides starting this blog). It is just hard for me to wrap my mindContinue reading “February”
Winterwatch
Has your winter been a little dreary lately? Has the work day at home been bland? Starting yesterday and continuing on today, my husband and I have been watching the live cameras for Winterwatch. These cameras focus on different parts of the UK and the wildlife during these cold winter days. I had heard aboutContinue reading “Winterwatch”
Missing The Cinema
This past weekend, my husband and I watched Wonder Woman 1984 on Amazon Prime. When I was watching it, it didn’t feel any different compared to watching any normal movie on a streaming platform. Then it hit me – It was one of the movies we were planning on seeing in the cinema over theContinue reading “Missing The Cinema”
Sorority Story
When trying to tell my non-American friends about being in a sorority, they automatically think of the movies. The more I try explaining what it is really like, the more I realize it is actually a weird concept for those outside of American culture. My story about being in a sorority is a little differentContinue reading “Sorority Story”
Hope for the Future
Yesterday, a historic moment happened in Washington D.C. – the first Black, Asian, female vice president was sworn into office. I couldn’t help feel my heart swell with joy. I still can’t believe how long it has taken for a woman to get into this position of power in the United States. I really doContinue reading “Hope for the Future”
My Pandemic Wedding
This morning, I was going through the cards Peter and I were sent for our wedding. I was taking each card and “scrapbooking” them into our wedding photo album we had made. It has now been just a month and a day since we married. It’s crazy to think that’s how little time has passedContinue reading “My Pandemic Wedding”
5 Years From Now..
I think it’s safe to say that all of us did not expect the world to be where it is right now five years ago. The question “where do you see yourself in five years?” is a question I LOATHE with a passion. I’ve had this for countless interviews and it seems to get repetitive.Continue reading “5 Years From Now..”
Knowing Me, Knowing You
It’s a rainy day here in London (big surprise, I know). Rainy days make me want to just lay in bed and nap all day. That being said, I had been struggling on what was really speaking to me for a topic to write. After perusing around Pinterest, I found some question prompts that wereContinue reading “Knowing Me, Knowing You”
Extrovert/Introvert/Ambivert? Why These Personality Labels Should Be Removed
I wake up in the middle of the night, going over in my head the job interview. “Did I sound confident enough?” “Did I present my personality in the right way?” These thoughts keep spinning in my head as I try to focus myself back to sleep. Will someone like me for this personality? IContinue reading “Extrovert/Introvert/Ambivert? Why These Personality Labels Should Be Removed”
