May 14, 2024Hope On The Other Side Coming out and expressing one's gender identity openly is a deeply personal and often courageous act. It involves breaking free from societal norms and expectations that may dictate how one should behave or identify based on their assigned gender at birth. By embracing their identity, individuals affirm their right to self-expression and autonomy, regardless of whether it aligns with traditional gender roles. This act of liberation allows individuals to live authentically and fosters a more inclusive and understanding society where everyone can be accepted for who they are. It's a journey of self-discovery and self-affirmation that promotes greater diversity and respect for individual differences. There should be no deprivation of rights to live a life of happiness that gives every bit of you hope and satisfaction, for it takes a lot of courage to express and become free to be who you want to be or who you are in society.

...more May 21, 2022The Meaning and Romance of Symbols When an ordinary noun is given a new meaning by people, it will no longer be an ordinary noun. It can symbolize things that make people happy or sad. It has become a symbol because of its own meaning. Symbol is universal, abstract and changeable. When we face a symbol in our life, we don't have a deep understanding of it. We only have a superficial understanding of its meaning, but we don't know why it is given such meaning and what kind of information this symbol carries.And in different countries, the same symbols have different meanings, some of which are even diametrically opposite. This is also a manifestation of cultural differences, isn't it interesting? Therefore, in my blog, I will choose a symbol in an episode to explain the story that each symbol is given different meanings under the influence of different national cultures, so as to make the audience understand it better. Each story is very interesting and brilliant. I think the audience will like them....more May 21, 2022Social Media; A Double Edged Sword Social media has almost become an indispensable part of our life. We can contact relatives, friends and classmates on social media, and we can also meet new friends. Social media helps us strengthen the connection between people in life. However, sometimes we also find that when we are too involved in the social networking of the network, we also unconsciously ignore the social networking around us. Similarly, when we enjoy the constantly updated and changing information on social media, the information explosion will also bring us trouble and affect our cognition to a certain extent. Like many things, social media has two sides. I will discuss the impact of social media in combination with my own experience and academic literature, and give my own solutions at the end....more May 21, 2022Heroiam Slava! I am using this opportunity to raise awareness and show support of Ukraine’s independence, culture and bravery. For my podcast I wish to primarily showcase personal anecdotes that I have collated. I will also be targeting some of the misinterpretations that the western media has been promoting, as well as general misunderstandings that many here in the UK seem to have about the longer historical aspects as well as the global implications of this war. Over the course of this 20 minute episode you will hear from me as well as two very special guests. Thanks for joining me. My solidarity and support goes out to the people of Ukraine and those that hope for a future free of oppression. My condolences to all those who lost their lives or loved ones, human or otherwise....more May 16, 2022Breaking the Boundaries of Sight and Hearing My podcast episode is an audiobook. Adapted from Edgar Allan Poe's darkly styled Gothic terrorism writings. Serving audiences with fragmented time and visually impaired persons. Based on The Fall of the House of Usher. The original work is a first-person narration, so it needs to be adapted into the form of the host, the protagonist, and the supporting characters reading their lines separately, and the sound effects added later. The Fall of the House of Usher is the work of Edgar Allan Poe, a famous American horror novelist in the first half of the last century. The work is profound and very literary, and I'm going to turn it into a podcast-worthy novel. The Fall of Usher is the work of the famous American horror novelist Edgar Allan Poe in the first half of the last century. The work is profound and literary, and I'm going to turn it into a podcast-friendly novel. There will also be changes in the plot, as the voice actor character needs to be given the opportunity to speak. This work aims to break the boundaries between hearing and seeing, and if only sighted people can enjoy great Halloween stories and literature, the world is too bad for blind people!...more May 16, 2022Life Across Global Canvas LION is just another animal until and unless he leaves his den, explores, gauges and hunts for survival it is called the king of the jungle. Quite similarly, students cross borders and dare to paint outside the lines. When students take this step to pursue higher education from a different country, economically and technologically superior, to enhance one’s experience and explore a different education, lifestyle and cultural paradigm. One of the leading reasons is, they want more exposure into the subject of interest and learn it in a practical more applicative manner so that it can be useful and fruitful in real life, while adapting to cultural and lifestyle changes, such is the situation of many students who cross borders, not only geographically but in terms of education, culture and lifestyle also. I bring you my discussion with a few of them sharing experiences of our border escapes....more May 12, 2022Uneven Borders According to the Henley Passport Index, Japan and Singapore top the list of countries with strong passports on the global ranking. What this means is that; Japanese, British, Americans, Canadians and host of others with strong passports have visa-free access to most countries of the world. For most of African and South Asian countries, reverse is the case, their passports are classified as weak, this has over the years resulted into difficult immigration procedures for people of African and some of Asian origins. What is the rationale for the global classification of passports that created these disparities among countries of the world? Finding answers to these questions is the motivation for my podcast episode, UNEVEN BORDERS. I aim to seek these answers in a most objective manner in this episode. Through personal immigration experiences of Pooja, an international student from Indian at university of Sussex, I aim to have resourceful discussions on border issues and global passports classification as its affect the right to free movement of certain nationalities of the world....more
