In honor and recognition of Women’s History Month, I wanted to write a post about my thoughts on women in the workplace. It’s not something I thought about too much, until my work placed me in a women’s leadership course. It made me think of a lot of things, actually. My sister, who is anContinue reading “Women in the Workplace”

My non-traditional traditional Asian parents
I’m going to preface this post by saying I LOVE my parents. We’ve definitely have rubbed each other the wrong way at different points in my life, but I’ve never doubted their love for me and the sacrifices they’ve made. I mean, they left their country to go to a place where they didn’t knowContinue reading “My non-traditional traditional Asian parents”
Women’s Health
Women’s health is always an interesting topic in my mind. I don’t want to go down the rabbit hole too much, but basically, not as much research has been done for women’s health as general (men’s) health. In fact, some research in the beginning used to just describe women as “men with pesky hormones” andContinue reading “Women’s Health”
Racism against Asians
So even though I knew this was happening through my various feeds, it’s still sad to see how much hate crimes against Asians has increased in the last year. Unlike other people, I wasn’t surprised to see how much racism still exists. This has always been a concern of mine for my son. I worryContinue reading “Racism against Asians”
When my man got mansplained
So being a woman, I’m used to sometimes being ignored or mansplained to. Especially when it comes to things that people stereotypically think is the man’s domain. But there was one time when it happened to my hubs! We were planning to redo the flooring on the first floor. It was originally a red woodContinue reading “When my man got mansplained”
Networking with Lunchclub
I recently started trying a new thing called Lunchclub. The idea is that an AI would match you based on topics you select and other information you provide to people that match those interests. As an introvert, I find networking a necessary evil. I know it’s important for my professional life, but the idea ofContinue reading “Networking with Lunchclub”
Fifty Shades of Blah
So, don’t hate me, but I can’t get the craze around Fifty Shades of Gray. I’m a bookworm, so I like to try to read the book before watching the movie (if I know ahead of time that a movie’s based on a book). Of course, I immediately got Fifty Shades to read it beforeContinue reading “Fifty Shades of Blah”
Baby’s first Lunar New Year!
Happy Lunar New Year to anybody who celebrates it! It’s a bit bittersweet this year, because this is a really important day in my (Vietnamese) culture, and it would’ve been even more special since it’s Goober’s (my baby) first new year. However, due to COVID, we’re not gathering. Being in a mixed race relationship, myContinue reading “Baby’s first Lunar New Year!”
No Gifting Relationship
So, I’ve talked before about how I think my hubs and I have an unconventional relationship. One of the best things, in my mind, is not giving each other gifts! I should clarify – we don’t usually get gifts for all the occasions that people would normally think – birthdays, Valentine’s day, Christmas, anniversaries, etc.Continue reading “No Gifting Relationship”
Relationships = Hard Work
Valentine’s day is next week, so obviously, relationships are on my mind. I’m not one to gush and cheese over my hubs (though he is the best!) or rave about my own relationship. Frankly, being in one takes a lot of work. I think it’s worth it, but you have to be with someone who’sContinue reading “Relationships = Hard Work”
