Sometimes I feel desensitized from the news & events occurring around the world, and at other times it's impossible to ignore how messed up things still are even though it's 2021. It can be frustrating to feel powerless and to understand that m
This is a nonsensical episode comprised of me rambling on about "Love Alarm," a Korean drama about an app that enables its users to be notified when someone within a 10-meter radius has romantic feelings for them. Along with what I discuss in t
Think of the last time you felt jealous about something. What about a time when you felt envious? Don't know the difference between jealous vs. envious? I certainly thought the two terms were interchangeable. And to an extent, they kind of are
If you've never worried about someone referring to you by the wrong gender pronoun, you might not be aware of the privilege that you hold. We can't assume someone's gender just by the way they look, and people are often referred to by the wrong
May is Asian Pacific American Heritage Month in addition to being Mental Health Awareness Month. After posting last week's episode, I realized that one topic we could dive deeper into is the framework of self-care and mental health from the Asi
Self-care seems like a simple concept, but it's easy to muddle things up as adults often do. Time constraints, pressure to be productive, and our own personal issues can get in the way. In this week's episode I ponder the classic question: why
This one goes out to anyone who has a non-English/American name, like me! There's another level of awareness that you acquire when growing up in America with a name that other people have difficulty pronouncing. For example, I've had to anticip
This episode is best listened to if you're having a hard time falling asleep. Why? Because I spend most of it just reading, haha. We're taking it easy this week as I take a personality quiz and find out 'which Yu Yu Hakusho character is my twin
I've seen several headlines throughout this past month marking the one-year anniversary of when the pandemic went into overdrive, lockdowns started happening, and our lives were universally altered. I mostly just ignored paying attention to the
Grab a snack and join me & Ann as we discuss a few scenarios pulled from the subreddit r/AmItheAsshole. AITA is an online forum where users can post about their conflicting situations, and other users will vote and discuss whether OP (Original
The Asian American community has been hit hard by hate crimes and violent attacks on what feels like a daily basis. Regrettably, this week is yet another instance of xenophobic, racist, and misogynistic behavior, acted out through a white gunma
I'm an overthinker. And one thing that I've 'overthought' about in the past has been who to keep as my friends and followers on social media. During high school and college, the more people I could add on Facebook, the better. But with a combin
I'm on my way to completing another trip around the sun. Turning another year older is certainly worth celebrating, but at the same time it can be hard to shake the feelings of anxiousness as I think about the clock ticking and time passing me
SHINee's back y'all and they don't want you calling them. This week I'm providing commentary on a few Kpop updates - I plan on recording more episodes like this every now and then! I'm a longtime Kpop listener and it's something I get enjoyment
"It wasn't raining when Noah built the ark." You get the gist of this quote... be prepared! It's sometimes harder than it sounds though. Over the weekend, Oregon experienced a windy snowstorm, followed by icy conditions, followed by widespread
Lunar New Year is upon us as we now enter the Year of the Ox. I don't normally do much to celebrate and this year there are no events being held anyways, so I'm basically doing nothing but eating bánh tét (savory sticky rice cake). Today's shor
This past year of social distancing has forced many of us to come up with creative ways to stay connected to those we care about. It is logical to want to maintain your relationships with close friends and family. However, one segment of friend
We got our first dusting of snow this week and though it melted away quickly, the cold weather inspired me to think about things that make me feel warm and happy inside. I kept the list short and included things I think anyone can identify with
This week I'm reflecting on my own self-esteem and discussing the concept of imposter syndrome. As human beings, we're (arguably) lucky to be self-aware and know how to analyze our own thoughts and emotions. Yet sometimes these thoughts can tur
This week I'm joined by my friend Ann as we answer some "Would You Rather" questions. As you listen along, I hope you think about what your response would be and let me know what we might have overlooked in our reasoning! Feel free to share you
Having access to multiple social media platforms is a fun way of staying in touch with friends and family. At what point does being constantly connected and inundated with updates become harmful to our mental health though? Sometimes I find it
2020 was a rough year, but I'm thankful for a few of the positive things that it brought forth for me. In this episode, I review some of my favorite things from this year and briefly go over what I'm looking forward to in the year ahead. What b
