Wasn’t fat enough to get bullied (some of my classmates did get made fun of for their size), but sometimes people would point out my weight or my chubbiness. When I entered secondary school, I think puberty along with my lazine...... 1 reply

Hello!
So I came across this question, and to be honest, it's something that bothers me a lot as a South Asian female.
Like, while it is also important to have biracial characters so as to represent the biracial experience, in the case of these Asian characters, I feel like that's not really the main goal.
From a sociological standpoint (and I h...... reply

I'm a very loud person and like to socialise, but I sometimes know others dislike me for that kind of personality and I get really bitchy towards them. I just can't seem to shake that habbit, no matter how much it annoys people around me. 2 reply
'Things' are your daily life experiences by which you get to know the world around you. Tell others about the things you did, may it be cool, sad, crazy or funny. You can also find things that you might want to do and a friend to do it with!
