Holidays = inability to function
I realise I haven’t posted in a while; my weekly updates obviously cease to count during the holiday season. I am currently back at home, which means I am unable to function properly on a mental level. So, what have I actually been doing that has made me stop posting? Longest day out that involves [...]
It’s rude to stare
That’s what your parents told you when you were a child, but decades on you still do it. Why do people stare? Do I have something on my face? Is my shirt buttoned up wrong? No. It’s because I’m not Caucasian. Yes I have black hair and yes I have brown eyes - which, of [...]

University Monies
Wow, just wow. I came across this video from a hilarious Asian American comedian called Eliot Chang who I absolutely adore: This is frickin’ hilarious!!! I say this as I’m currently revising through hell for my last exam, and some people may or may not be revising… I have heard some ridiculous stories whereby students [...]
