November is unofficially known as National Blog Posting Month.

Normally, I’d probably research it and tell you things that you can already find on the internet, but the only thing you really need to know is this:

From experience and long reflection period, I take my thoughts and organize them coherently, and publish them on a blog. I write from the perspective of an Asian, 16-year-old girl that understands the multiple stereotypes going against me. I understand the pressures and expectations of college and academics.
