What’s the point of blogging

4 October 2016

Okay, I really need calm down with all these consecutive blog posts but now I’m thinking even more.

I just need to stop thinking.

What’s the point of blogging knowing that nobody is reading. Like I ask these questions knowing I’m never going to get an answer…

Enduring

19 August 2016

I find it often that in Asian culture, children don’t talk about their problems to their parents. I can’t speak for everyone, but this is true in my family. I always find it funny when teachers or counselors at school tell us to explain to our parents our stress, issues…

Happy things

27 June 2016

I think almost everyone already knows about the phenomenon in which we talk about bad things more than the good things. My Biology teacher told us that we should write three things that we are looking forward to/happy about every morning because it would really improve our lives in the long…

How does society evolve

10 August 2015

So I was thinking: how does society evolve and, in our eyes, improve? Back in the day, and still now, many people were/are against homosexuality, gender fluidity, different races, different genders, abortion, etc. etc. At what point did someone…

A Teacher’s Personal Life

11 May 2015

So recently (and apparently last year as well, but it never really spread I guess), some people found one of the 9th grade Biology teacher’s Facebook and Twitter. He is this like 27–28 year old teacher that a lot of the girls think is attractive. He’s only okay, but…

Some Moral Questions

1 May 2015

Stuff I’ve Been Thinking About

16 March 2015

So my mom was yelling at me about random bullshit again. I’m literally just done with her shit. I don’t even care anymore ’cause she’s crazy (but obviously I actually still do because I’m human and she’s my mom).

A few days ago I was reading El Estoque (my…

Lord of the Flies: Philosopher Literary Analysis

In Lord of the Flies, William Golding asserts his view on humanity by placing his characters into what is known as a “Hobbesian trap” (which is the idea that, due to suspicion, two groups tend to both want the preemptive strike, when the better…

Two Sides of a Coin

14 September 2014

I find myself always second guessing my ideals. It’s not like I’m not sure of what I believe in, it’s just that I always wonder if it’s fair. I always think of what the other person’s perspective might be. But when I don’t see their reasoning, that’s that. Like I just don’t…
