Awkward Turtle

SEASON FINALE!! Thank you so much for listening in the last few months. This is by far the best project I’ve worked on by myself and I hope every single one of you enjoyed it as much as I have. This last episode of the series is a personal one but rest assured there are still a few twists and jokes on this podcast. This pod is all about my transition process, how I felt, how I am feeling and how I pledge to become. The most personal podcast yet!

It seems like today every news is bad news. There are so many unjust and inequality embedded in today’s society, right down to our pockets. I am not joking, pockets inequality is a real thing.

HAPPY LUNAR NEW YEAR!! This is the biggest holiday for Chinese culture and one of the biggest holidays in the world. There are so many traditions and customs to look at, so so many cool things happen during this week.

Ohhh what I would do to be born in the 2000s. Where the internet is on fleek and everything is so woahhh. Technology was a very different thing when I was growing up. WorkArt and Pinball were the best apps, where today TikTok and Instagram takes the crown. We also talk about how the memes culture have evolved from the original planking and Harlem Shake. Memes are now so commonly used, what will this mean for the future?!

My parents spotted I wasn’t going to be the sharpest tool in the box, so they sent me to a boarding school to build CHARACTER. A chance for me to thrive, a place where not only academic matters. My life took a very different turn, I had some great experiences that I would have never gotten and made some life long friends, oh and I can no longer count.

2020 has been an eventful year, to say the least. We all discovered things about ourselves that we shouldn't know for example how many hours we can stay in Pjs for. 2021 just need to get here now. Happy New Year!

They say it’s the hopes that kills you as an Arsenal fan. This is very true and even more true when you are living 10,000 miles across the world. Waking up at 3am to watch Arsenal is a whole other experience on its own. Being an Arsenal fan in Asia has given some tips on how to navigate real life, how to deal with with disappointments and frustrations but with a glimmer of hope that everything will be great again *fingerscrossed*
