What is this space?


I learned from a young age that I ought to always journal. Writing for me is therapeutic. It helps me process. It keeps me sane.

I used writing as a way to survive the tough times in Indonesia, and now, as I am still struggling with reimmersion in my home culture, I will use writing again, as a way to process, to deal, to survive.

I am also going to use this space to reflect on the issues I am encountering as a Graduate Assistant, teaching in the General Studies Writing department at Bowling Green State University and someone involved in education in the US. (And all of the problems present in our American education system, both K-12 and at the college level and beyond.)
