Five Thangs Friday
Wowwee! It's been a hot minute since I've posted on this corner of the internet, but I've been itching to write/create/speak so cheers to me bringing PseudoMidlifeCrisis back! The last year I've learned so much and one of the biggest lessons I've learned is how therapeutic words can be. SO even if no one reads … Continue reading Five Thangs Friday
On Judaism/Religion/Happiness
I saw this at a bookstore in Auckland and it made me stop. It also made me giggle a little. Was the store implying that religion and happiness are one and the same? Were they just short on shelf space and had to consolidate? Religion is an interesting thing to me. Personally, I was raised … Continue reading On Judaism/Religion/Happiness
A Casual Day at the DMZ/North Korea
We have a scratch off map at home with all the countries we've been to, and I'm having a serious moral dilemma. Can I scratch off North Korea now that we've been to the DMZ?! When we were in Korea a few weeks ago, we booked a tour to go to the DMZ - the … Continue reading A Casual Day at the DMZ/North Korea
Dear Me, Love Me
Dear 5 year old Jeanette... It's okay that you don't look like everyone else in your classroom. One day, you'll appreciate the intricacies of who you are and where your family comes from. Dear 13 year old Jeanette... I know you feel like an outsider again, and maybe you are. It will pass and you … Continue reading Dear Me, Love Me
Discovering the Heart and S(e)oul of South Korea

If you asked me what I knew about Korea, the most I could give you would be … Continue reading Discovering the Heart and S(e)oul of South Korea
Breathe, Loudly
Just don't do it in someone's ear. Don't be that weirdo. It's been a long month. Things have happened that have made life difficult for me - emotionally, physically, and mentally. I took a break from writing, and quite frankly, a lot of other things as well (like kale and yoga). One thing that has … Continue reading Breathe, Loudly
I’m Not “Just” a Teacher
It's bizarre how much of our identity is tied to our profession. Maybe it isn't so strange - we spend so much of our time at work, getting ready for work and unwinding from work. Work is where people tend to spend most of their days. It makes sense that our self worth is so … Continue reading I’m Not “Just” a Teacher
A Lovely Weekend
I had a lovely weekend, and I really needed it. I've felt so tired lately. I think it has to do with the monotony of the day to day life. We're 11 days away from Spring Break, and I am yearning for it and our trip. I'm so damn grateful that I have the opportunity … Continue reading A Lovely Weekend
GOAT Coffee Maker: Review
I have been on the lookout for a coffee maker without any plastic or aluminum parts. I've read too many articles on Wellness Mama about the harm that can be done with leaching, and decided I was done with it. If I get cancer one day, it won't be because of my coffee brewing techniques. … Continue reading GOAT Coffee Maker: Review
