Am I my job? Are you? Oh hell no.. Top Story - May 2021.
Today, I was thinking about my job. And then I was thinking about my worth. And then, I was thinking about how the correlation I made between my job and my worth made absolutely no sense.

Richer Than I Thought
In my very first article here, I mentioned how I low-key love anything to do with pirates ... like treasure hunts. GO ON A TREASURE HUNT! "Do you have more than one bank account with money sitting in it? You probably have a million unused gift vouchers (which are pretty much like cash). If you have accrued leave entitlements at work, calculate the dollar value of that. Maybe some of your assets have increased in value -- like your house, the value of your jewelry, or random collectibles. Go and collect all the money that is scattered through your car, clothes, home, and work desk. Trust me, you'll find a lot. You might find a whole bunch of expired gift vouchers and pamper certificates (boo!), but you'll learn for next time, gorgeous (and some places will let you redeem them anyway). Remember: this is all abundance that you let go to waste. Is it any wonder that the Universe feels slow to deliver?"

Sports Journalist’s diary: Struggles and Realizations
This is probably the first time I will be venting out towards this kind of topic. But well, I needed this. For the past months, my world as a sports journalist was incomplete. Incomplete in the sense that zero events were present since the COVID-19 pandemic broke out globally.

Timing Is Everything
Nearly 30 years ago, I was born on an Air Force Base in Misawa, Japan. I became the first of four children; as such, I think I can safely say that there were many expectations placed on me. Some of them I placed on myself as I got older. But the one that has eluded me thus far, the one that I want the most, is becoming a published author.

Finding My Voice
An update about my relationship with writing I've been struggling with deciding the type of content that I would like to pursue writing. I've been trying out a variety of topics, like subjects that from school like How to do Online School Successfully, Gender Stereotypes (from Sociology class), Choosing a Major, etc. I've also written about current events like The Gender Reveal Wildfires, details about the new Disney Princess Movie months before it was released, the time whenGen Z accidentally suggested a Nazi symbol for a matching tattoo, etc.

A Lucky Coincidence Just Saved Me 1110 Euros
Last year, I took out an occupational disability insurance policy for authors and journalists over the phone. During the conversation, the person in charge advised me to register as a journalist and not as an author, because that would be much cheaper for me.

The Game of Social chance
Social stratification has multiple factors in order for it to work properly. It starts with the social differentiation, “human diversity of the society”, to social inequality, to social order, and then the stratification which is created through the social forces such as “socio-historical and political actions” (Larkin, 2015). In this writing, I will be discussing three types of stratifications systems, how individuals are sorted into the system and the system’s social mobility.

An Open Letter To The Woman Who Got Me Fired
Dear Woman Who Got Me Fired, I can't deny that you've crossed my mind often since the day I encountered you. I was already having trouble when you came into my workplace and started throwing your adult temper tantrum. You were angry because there were security tags on the thong flip flops that your daughter wanted to try on. The flip flops were a couple of sizes too small for your daughter's feet, but both of you thought the tiny security strip was the reason your daughter's size eleven feet weren't fitting in a size eight or nine.

How Anime made me a writer
When I was about 13 years old I was such a dorky kid, I wasn’t bullied per say but I was a teacher’s pet and I loved getting good grades. I had Harry Potter glasses (super hip now, of course) that I did get made fun of for but I really didn’t pay attention.

Elderly Caregivers' Unknown Plight - Being Abused by the Elderly They Are Trying to Protect
Narcissistic Abuse It is a shocking circumstance that some older parental figures, particularly relatives who give everyday administrations to their debilitated moms/fathers, are enduring peacefully as they persevere through mental or mental maltreatment from their elderly folks who have gotten egotistical, controlling, and manipulative to get what they need when they need it.

Thank you, Vocal Media employees, past and present.
Dear you—the you that is somewhere in Fort Lee, New Jersey, possibly reading this letter right now. You work in a small office with big problems. An alarming number of reviews, from those of you who have since moved on, report working unpaid overtime without breaks, or benefits.
