Self Awareness for a Stronger society
Today I watched the Congress testimonies and trials of President Gay, the president of Harvard University. She, along with two other Ivy League Presidents, were being asked to step down from their positions in light of their inability to address antisemitism on their campuses. This came as quite a shock to me. President Gay was […]
Read MoreIf we’re being real here, everyone has something they’d change about themselves. Maybe you want to change your personality– like anxiety-levels or pet-peeves. Or a behavior– like negative self-talk or gossiping. Or maybe you simply want to change your bank account balance (don’t we all LOL). When I was reading through other bloggers’ responses about […]
Read MoreToday I spent most of my day studying and focusing on school work. However, it felt like the more I studied, the less I knew. “If only I had more time,” I thought. Fast forward to dinner today to the conversation I had with my partner for a class project. Jokingly, we were talking about […]
Read MoreI saw this prompt earlier this morning while I was trying to mentally escape a boring lecture. It worked somewhat because for the rest of class all I could think about was what everyone should know. As my thoughts drifted, my first idea was the obvious, semantic information.

Here’s what […]
Read MoreToday I had an enlightening discussion with my family friend. He and I, sitting on the floor at the temple together, got to discussing the generation’s differences. What started off as light banter of comparing slang words eventually became a discussion on how to parent a generation you’re unable to understand or connect with. My […]
Read MoreHey everyone! I’ve finally returned from Boston! These last few weeks have been pretty hectic, so I apologize for not updating on here during that time. I’m really excited for this prompt though because I was just thinking about making a blog post about why I’ve rebranded this website and where I plan to go […]
Read MoreManuel Santos, the guy playing the guitar on the night streets of Boston, is the one who helped me finally think of an answer for today’s prompt. At first, I couldn’t think of what gets better with age. Of course, wisdom was the first one that came to mind. But I couldn’t bring myself to […]
Read MoreI’m going to be honest… when I first saw this prompt, I was a bit confused. Why would anyone want to write about their sleep schedule? Of all things about ourselves that we should reflect on, I didn’t see why the time I went to bed was important to journal about. However, the more I […]
