There's something that I have acknowledged for some time now, is the bad representation of women in our education. Of course, we all know about Albert Einstein or maybe Thomas Alva Edison, and I'm sure that you have heard about Shakespeare in one of your English classes. It just makes me so sad how…
Today Im going to talk about one of my best reads in 2021. And that is The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by American author Taylor Jenkins Reid. The novel tells the story of the fictional Old Hollywood star Evelyn Hugo, who at the age of 79 decides to give a final interview to an unknown journalist…
I remember when I was younger I use to say something like “im lucky that im a girl, I can wear both pants and skirts, but boys can’t wear skirts” Which is a very sexist thing to say but no one really told me at that age that fashion shouldn’t be gendered. The perception that fashion is gendered has…
Walau sudah berkembang dari tahun ke tahun, tapi sampai sekarang masih terdapat banyak stigma terhadap perempuan. Salah satunya adalah bahwa semua perempuan itu ingin menjadi pengurus rumah tangga, padahal nyatanya tidak semua perempuan ingin melakukan hal tersebut. Jika ada perempuan yang menikah,…

Lately, I’ve been thinking about my younger self, and I felt really bad for her. I disliked myself as a child, I thought I was so dramatic, annoying, and I didn’t see value in myself.

Some people call me crazy when I tell them that one of my favorite things to do is talk to myself. I think not enough people understand how talking to yourself is actually very beneficial. To me personally, talking to myself forms this personal space, a judgment-free zone where I can just talk abou…
The oldest daughter’s experience is something that I personally think is very heavy. I mean most of the time the pressure that is given to eldest daughters is just crazy, especially in an Asian household. This has something to do with the patriarchy and sexism because women are seen as caregivers a…
People, especially the adults that I meet they always that they think Im mature for my age. I personally take it as a compliment, but sometimes people don’t realize how being mature at a young age can be a nightmare sometimes. As much as I am grateful for my life and my state of mind, I have to adm…
I literally have no idea for today’s atomic essay so when I have no topic ideas, I usually just write something about Taylor Swift. Today I am going to talk about one of her songs in her album folklore and that is illicit affairs. Let’s get started. In the song, Taylor Swift talks about having a se…
I think my whole life no one has ever really though me what is boundaries, and most people I know don’t even have boundaries. I think helping people, giving people your time and attention is something that is wonderful. But sometimes you really need to know how far you can go with helping people. B…
Last night I was just about to sleep and I thought that I would scroll at TikTok for a little bit and this video of Taylor Swift. She was in an interview and she said “When I tell people how happy I am to be alone, and to be living my life on my own terms, and to be free and independent and empower…
