I’ve been contemplating writing this for a long, LONG time. But I didn’t have the courage – because I’m as coward af. I have been mentioning this to VJ a lot and he just shrugged (I think he knows I was going to do it anyway regardless of what he said). But I have been …

Let’s Save The World

To the REBEL in You

September 11, 2017

Today, while I was driving on the way to my workplace, I noticed a teenage girl and her mother fighting. I wondered why they were fighting on the road. Even though we were stuck in traffic, I could still hear their arguments quite clearly. She was grounded for rebelling against her parents. The two of …
