By Gena SysavathWeb Content Contributor I always see memes where someone is third-wheeling their friends. The photos where you see a happy couple and then there is just one friend there hanging out with them, alone. I always knew that I would never want to be in relationship, mostly because of the work I would have to put into it. Yet, I am forced to be surrounded and see couples […]
By Gena SysavathWeb Content Contributor The absolute worst thing that happens to people is quite literally aging. I mean it is for some people. I am a part of that group. I am absolutely terrified of getting older. I have been terrified the moment society dubbed me as an adult at the ripe age of 18. The moment you are legal, things start changing. First off, when you’re an adult, […]
By Gena SysavathWeb Content Contributor My parents are not from America, but my sister and I are. Both of my parents were born and raised in Laos. The very first language I ever learned was not English, therefore when I got into school, I was forced into ESL (English as a Second Language) despite being better at it than most kids my age. The reason? Since my parents could not […]
By Gena SysavathWeb Content Contributor I am weak. Everything physical about me is scrawny. My immune system? Barely thriving. I got to say, I blame all of my bodily defaults on my parents. How is it that everything hereditarily wrong with both my parents was passed down to me? Let me tell you guys, I am near legally blind at the age of twenty-two. My allergies make me puff up […]
By Gena SysavathWeb Content Contributor I generally do not like talking about anything serious because it dampens the mood. However, I believe there should be more awareness on this topic. I do not want to disregard racism towards any other races, there is racism everywhere and it just should not be the case. America is a melting pot; the United States has many cultures and traditions running through its vein, […]
By Gena SysavathWeb Content Contributor I do not have a life. I spend a lot of my free time watching random Asian dramas and getting way too emotional over the character’s relationships. Since quarantine began, I think I’ve watched over 20 different dramas, and some of the ones I watch are not very common. I figure I might as well share some of the ones I’ve watched the past year […]
By Gena SysavathWeb Content Contributor Sadly, schools have started back up. It’s a very grim time for almost everyone who goes to school… unless you like school because then this must be a dream for you. But if you are like me, school is the bane of our existence and there’s a wish that it goes away every day. I just can’t stand being in school. It’s a lot of work and I […]
By Gena SysavathWeb Content Contributor Cry Over Anime or Asian Dramas For some reason, every winter break since high school, I renew a sudden love for anime or Asian (Korean, Chinese, Thai, etc.) dramas and I get into it. I will get so entranced by my love for the characters and will obsessively talk about them to anyone willing to listen. It’s not okay. I definitely have a problem with […]
By Gena SysavathWeb Content Contributor Graduation is a time to celebrate. That’s what we have always been told. However, if you’re anything like my best friend, the ultimate introvert, then that’s probably not the case. Let’s go back just a couple of years, like 22-years ago. I was born. My best friend? She was at my birth. I mean she was only 9-months old, so I’m sure she doesn’t remember […]
