UNLV Strong . Content Warning.
You see the news and watch the devastation of active shooters on college campuses everywhere. I’m a graduate student at UNLV for a Masters of Social Work. I have a year and a half left for my program and this is my first semester with my internship. It was an ordinary day December 6th, 2023 when I arrived at UNLV Campus after being dropped off by my ride. I walked from the Student Union and Beam Hall towards my Office Building across from the campus by Thomas and Mack Center. I was exhausted and still recovering from a cold that I was battling for two weeks. I was finally feeling 100 percent symptom free to go into my office where I work with Veterans who help other veterans transitioning from being a soldier to Civilian life.

Overcoming my movie theater anxiety
The beginning after watching Doctor Strange 2 Multiverse of Madness. I used to love going to a movie theater as in I went once a week every weekend as soon as the movie theaters opened back up after lockdown but after watching Doctor Strange 2 Multiverse of Madness everything changed. As of now I have anxiety and fear every time I even think about going to a movie theater. And it makes it seem like my heart is beating so much faster than normal. When I watched the second Doctor Strange before I got on a medication for my heart. I was excited at first and then when scenes of Wanda being the antagonist began and traveling the multiverse.

Victoria Secret Period Panties Review
I just got some of the Period Panties from Victoria's Secret. I am honestly shocked at how amazing they are and I am going to do a review on them. Now before you say EW! Or Gross! Or you wear those without wearing a pad or tampon so gross! I am also going to do a little explanation of my routine on how I use them. I have a routine everyone has a routine so regardless of how you react it won’t affect my choices.

It's the Graveyard Smash!
Halloween is one of my all-time favorite holidays and as we get closer to Halloween, I think to myself what the music is I want to hear it’s not just a music that will make it seem like Halloween but also put me in that mindset of spookiness. As I thought of this challenge it made me think of the classic Halloween music and then the newer versions of those classics. The first thing that popped into my head when thinking of Halloween music is planning a Halloween party. I don’t know about you but when it comes to Halloween, I have a specific playlist that I can dance with and enjoy at a Halloween party and outside of it. So shall we begin at any Halloween party I want you to begin entering the venue as if it was a haunted house of some sort.

The Fate: Winx Saga An Honest Netflix Review **SPOILERS**
Warning: Spoilers of the show as you continue reading. I warned you please beware. In all honesty I was extremely skeptical about watching this show. I am a lover to the original Winx Club the colors and the story line and the proven message of girl power. I also knew I had to give this new show a chance even though my expectations are so high when it comes to the original Winx Club. Even though Netflix did well on choosing Bloom and Stella for their appearances. Flora from the original was my absolute favorite and they replaced her with outcast Terra who I thought was good to add a bit of diversity but instead of having the mature and loving personality of Flora she was to be a bit too perky but definitley strong.

She's Dating The Gangster Movie Review
She’s Dating The Gangster She’s Dating The Gangster is a heartfelt love story by Cathy Garcia Molina. It is filled with Laughter and Joy and Tears. Another beautiful performance by love team Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla. Even for me, I’m half Filipino and Half American I can only watch the movie with subtitles but each and every time. I laugh, I cry, and I learn to understand love more. This movie never disappoints me to make me cry like all Filipino movies they are emotional and have a beautiful heartfelt message. She's Dating The Gangster is on Netflix in America it is one of the many amazing filipino movies on Netflix!

The Third Date... #MeToo
My First Kiss Two weeks before High School Graduation I finally got the courage to talk to the first guy I ever felt feelings for. I was warned by friends that I should be careful. I said I would take it slow and I did take it slow. After High School Graduation we discussed our first date. During this time I lived thirty minutes away from him and neither of us had our licenses but we were both 18. We were just late bloomers when it came to getting a license. For the first date we agreed on a place near his house so met each other there at the place.

We are adding Fire to the Fire during these dark times.
May 29,2020 I’m half Filipino and I’m half American I want you to know that before you continue to read this. I have a voice and yet speaking that voice right now. During this time will only bring out backlash and hurtful words. I want to speak but I’m torn between good friends of all races. I was torn between giving them a reason to be angry at what I believe. I was raised to love and show respect and to understand there will always be good and evil. There will always be racism and there will always be violence.

My Favorite Channel to Watch! @MissRemiAshten
I was beginning college as a psychology major when I first started watching Remi Ashten. The first few videos I watched of her were her Instagram food videos and some DIYs! I loved her videos, they were all filled with great content and that made it so much easier for me to watch her. But what I felt really happy about was watching Remi Ashten's vlogs while she is in college. She is of Asian descent, she had a different body type that I related too, and she had the most positive outlook in life! When I started to watch her vlogs, I became so happy every time she would upload.

#Vegas Strong: Waking Up the Day of October 1, 2017
Waking up on October 1, 2017, in Las Vegas, Nevada was one of the most confusing days of my life. On September 30, 2017, I got back from a trip to Utah to celebrate my mom's birthday party. It was a wonderful weekend but the trip back was exhausting. I had school the next morning and I was already tired enough. When I got back home with my family I unpacked and got my stuff for school ready. Before I went to sleep that night, I woke up the next morning to my alarm clock playing "Jesus Take the Wheel" by Carrie Underwood.

'Insatiable' - A Fat Girl’s Opinion of the Film and the Social Media Comments
There has been a lot of talk about the movie Insatiable which is going to be streamed on Netflix on August 10, 2018. Insatiable is about a heavyset girl that is being bullied harshly by her classmates. She is bullied to the point she takes the time over the summer to lose the weight. She also wants to take the advantage to get revenge against her former bullies. Some of the biggest responses of the movie on social media are that the movie is using a skinny actress to play a heavyset girl using a fat suit.
