How to Live More Intentionally This Year
What does it mean to be your own person? We can’t ignore the mounting conclusion that we are summations of our past experiences, various environmental factors, and the genetic legacy we have inherited from our family trees. The good news is, if you are the kind of person who is looking to have more connection and joy, based on genuine feelings and honest experiences, you can influence those factors to a significant degree! I find this topic fascinating.

2020 Words
It is that time of the year where everyone is sharing their word for the year. As I grow older I find I am having a harder time committing to overly positive and ambiguous words.

Where can you go for a good taco these days? If I asked you to share with me your favorite taco joint, where would you send me? I hope you tell me about your favorites. But lately it seems that instead of sharing what we love and why we love it, we insist on telling people their experience is invalid. We tell them what they should like. We quickly put down other people’s preference and we shun those who don’t agree with us. I’m currently binging Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown. Season 9: Episode 1. In this episode Bourdain explores the Los Angeles area through the eyes of the Mexicans and…

Living In Between
Wong Fu Productions has put out a couple of interesting videos. I came across ‘In Between’ and I did a full stop. Oh my gosh! I’m actually lucky that I didn’t have friends make jokes about Asians like this. My friends accepted me as Christi and I saw them for who they were as well. But I suddenly became aware that I was Asian when I asked a boy out. He said it was because I wasn’t his type. *Burn* I went through a similar identity crisis. Only then did I hear the “jokes” and understand the racist comments. I stopped participating in these kind of jokes. It wasn’t funny…
