My First Diplomatic Networking Event

Hi everyone!
As most of you know, in less than a month I will be going to China ^_^ So yesterday I went to my first diplomatic networking event and I got to meet other people who were interested in foreign language and international relations. I ended up really enjoying conversation with this guy who was planning to go to Russia and a girl who was planning to go to Tajikistan. I also met an online friend in person at this event so that was pretty cool. My favorite part of everything was when the Miami resident diplomat came out and informed the group of various opportunities that I would have never thought of. Having such an open discussion with Madame diplomat really eliminated all concerns and more than anything, confirmed that I want to be a Foreign Service Officer (specifically an American Ambassador). I can't wait to see where this adventure takes me.
I'm ready to change the world, helping one person at a time.

P.S. Thank you for reading, commenting, and sharing my posts. I will definitely be updating more in the upcoming weeks with China preparation and all. Thank you for staying loyal to me (even with my lack of recent posting); I am trying to write quality pieces, but I have to prioritize summer semester. I promise soon it will all be worth it :) 加油大家! <3

加油大家!(Oil, everyone!)


Hello everyone!
I would first like to explain my 2 week  lack of posting. I had finals week and the following week was my only break between summer term and going to China. So I decided to just take the week, but the past is not the topic of today's post.
Today I would like to just encourage all my viewers. 加油大家! 加油! 加油 literally means oil. Oil is what powers cars and makes fried food taste so good. I just want to encourage everyone to push forward because the (school) year isn't over yet and there are many more things to accomplish and more tidbits to learn. Whenever I am tired or I am getting burned out from all the work that I'm doing, I just have to remember to add 加油 to get me through the day. So oil, everybody ^_^

Mother's Day Memories: Adrienne Arsht Gala

The Adrienne Arsht Gala was absolutely unbelievable. On a Thursday night, a bunch of amazing, talented, and generous people in one room. The line up they had was absolutely fantastic. From the extremely outgoing host Andy Cohen to  gorgeous dancers of the American Ballet and the Alvin Ailey Dancers and the amazing singers like Estelle and Darren Criss  ^_^ However, the most amazing part was not the voices of opera singers belting out the most beautiful  music I've ever heard or the watching history of an artistic center that shaped my life; the most amazing  part of the night was the fact that I got to share the experience with 
my mom. <3

Happy Mother's Day!!

P.S. Feel free to read, comment on , and share my posts. Don't forget to wish a woman you love a happy Mother's Day.
