The world is broken I am not

Keywords: My Health and Wellness Journey , Self-care , Cerebral Palsy , Health , Self-Care , Wellness

I had an experience today where I no longer could just be firm with someone. Drawing a line in the sand had to be done. I do not regret it in the least. My boundaries are useless if not enforced. Today, I enforced them.

I do recommend hand writing this part because there is nothing like scratching up a page with a pen or pencil when you’re angry or upset or frustrated

It is important to recognize that clearing your mind is difficult. Owning up to that truth might feel pointless but the sooner it is acknowledged, the sooner you can work through it or around it. I have two strategies for this. If my head is too full of thoughts, anxieties, or feelings to jump straight into whatever I want to work on, I try to journal for a bit about what is bugging me, which helps me clear my mind. Usually I try to go for a page in the notebook I have dedicated to journaling. If I don’t want to or don’t have the time for that, I try to get a few sentences or words down.

You’re undeniably different in every way possible

Keywords: {0}

How you look at situations, your lens of the world has changed. How you interact with people, your relationships with others is fragmented and redesigned. But eventually, that way of living becomes familiar and doesn’t hurt so bad to wear it every day. You become desensitized to the itchy smock of grief, and at times can even joke about what an ugly number it is. This is me, until the next tragic life event occurs. Hopefully it’s a very long time from now. But when it does, I hope I don’t descend into a ball of gelatinous nothingness for a year and have to scramble to get my life back. I can’t worry about that now though.

The look on their sad faces as they walk away

Keywords: {0}

[…] my career was first and then my family. While my family was suffering, I was also sad to see how hard it was trying to maintain my work life, that I couldn’t keep it together at home. I’m sure this is the same for everyone. But it got to the point where it was awful for my health – mentally and physically. Working 80+ hours a week and the kids asking for mommy but she’s still on the computer screen.

Stories aren’t made from all good days and everything always working out in your favor

Keywords: {0}

All storms look different, A LOT different and that is OKAY! My story might seem like it has more but I promise you it does not. Mine is different because it is MINE. What is yours? What do you have to share? You are made for more, always. It doesn’t always have to look pretty, put together. Life is MESSY all on its own and you, NO ONE can change that. Life can get pretty ugly, it is meant to be at times. We just get used to managing it so much so that we forget to just be present in the messy and remember life is still so gorgeous. Even in the midst of messy and figuring things out.

Why would [Frances Haugen] remain silent about one of the most prominent propaganda machines’ profit motives while at the same time deploring another somewhat less prominent propaganda machine’s profit motives?

Keywords: freezine , brand , brand name , brand names , brands , censorship , language , mass media , publishing , rational media , submission

It is only a matter of time. Recently, Frances Haugen has started to campaign against a prominent propaganda machine (“Facebook” [or “Meta”]). Yet she is probably also aware of the situation among other propaganda machines … in particular: what is perhaps the most prominent propaganda machine of all (“Google” [or “Alphabet”]).

By filming my experience and sharing my knowledge, I can help ease their process towards studying in the United Kingdom

Keywords: branding

I decided to go into the ‘StudyTube’ and vlogging niches. “StudyTube is the community of YouTubers that upload videos revolving around the world of education” (Lockwood, 2019) which I consider the perfect niche to create content for as I am an international student in the UK. In Romania, going to study in another country is a controversial subject. More and more people get the opportunity to study abroad and each faces the experience of applying to university with barely any knowledge about the system. Once they arrive abroad they are overwhelmed by a list of to-dos from paperwork to moving in and making friends.

Popular culture can be defined as well-liked media, made by the people, for the people, and anything ‘leftover’ from the high-class culture such as classical music or theatre

Cultural proximity is the theory that claims people have “…the tendency to prefer media from one’s own culture or the most similar possible culture.” (Straubhaar, 2003, p. 85). This would explain why Australians such as myself engage with Netflix, which streams predominantly Western media. The popularity is explained by how closely our cultures are linked. It makes sense that America has such a large impact on Australia, both our cultures are western and have similar values, and our government tends to follow the decisions of America. Alas, the term ‘Americanisation’ could be used.

I am glad millions of people have shared their experiences online, I know it has helped me tremendously

Keywords: introducing me , tegan , blogging , blogging germany , tennager blogging , how to blog , why should i start a blog

I am ever so excited to start writing blogs and putting my thoughts on paper to clear my brain. It will be exciting to see my writing improve, as well as, my attitudes, dialect and interests. I am excited to read back on blogs and see my essence at that time captured in what I have written. I also hope to help others and provide value from what I have learned and my experiences. It feels so exciting to write this down so that I won’t forget any of it. I hope this blog gives me the opportunity to have a screenshot of the past and will also be enjoyable for others to read!
