I want to preface this by saying that I really do love my mom, and I am very glad and blessed that she is not one of those parents that dispose you once you turn 18 but whew... being the eldest daughter of an immigrant parent is not for the week. Enjoy me and my strong valley girl/cali accent come through, and my little "but yeah" and "so anyways" transitions as I get excited to move to Michigan for grad school and vent a little about the troubles of living with your parents as a grown adult. Thank you all for listening and with this new transition in life, I hope to still continue my weekly uploading streak and I might have to pack the Yeti microphone to keep the podcast alive. As always, I appreciate you for listening to my ramblings and next time I post I MIGHT be in a whole new state... --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

It's weird because usually post grad depression would come AFTER you graduate right? But you know me, always the overachiever had to be ahead of the curve and have that crisis with 5 days left in my undergrad career. I will say though that graduating in 2020 during the height of the pandemic was not the best of times, but it was really cool to edit this 2 years later with less than a week left of me starting my Masters program and even though I haven't figured out all the questions 2020 me asked in this podcast, it's nice to see that I did get a grip on reality and I did make an effort to move forward. As for that sign... I guess we'll figure out if I ever found it in future podcasts... --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Surprise surprise! Not only am I uploading a new episode on time within the week, it is also a current, not a blast from the past episode recorded in the year 2022, August to be exact! I hope you enjoy me talking (complaining) about the woes of being scammed and then my literal gushing sequence of Beyonce's seventh studio album. I really snapped with filming and editing this in like 2 hours? Anyways, I hope you enjoy.... As always, it's your girl, Natasha!  --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Surprise Surprise we have another mini (full) episode of me speaking on my voice memo from 2020. I will say though that I do enjoy this one as I finally reveal to you alll that I am yes, a Dark skin Black woman and I get to talk a little bit of how I feel on representation throughout the media. It was interesting to talk about my personal experiences and as well branch outside of my comfort zone to talk about my observations on the Native American community and the representation (or lack thereof) in the media. Join me as I talk about the movie that has yet to have a release date, Avatar: The Last Airbender - Live Action, and maybe, just maybe I'll create a more full fledged episode in the later months/years. (Also if I pronounce 'Inuit' wrong, I am so sorry and I have absolutely no excuse for not researching how to pronounce the word). Thank you to all 2 of my listeners, you all complete me :) --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Another voice memo from 2020 where Tik Tok was on the brink of ending and I miss about how helpful and detrimental the app has been for my quality of life. Please excuse the cringy phony British accent thrown around and the constant airplanes flying over me, over time I’ll probably record and edit in a more professional setting but for now you get the raw, uncut version --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Join me as I contemplate about wanting to start a podcast, but then talk about how I wouldn't really know how to start one and if I should even start one since my limited knowledge about them was that they were these structured talk shows that included more than one person. I will have a little 'prelude'/ disclaimer talking about how excited I am that this is my first official official episode and you get to compare 2022 Natasha to 2020 Natasha.... Have fun with that. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

I have decided to launch a podcast and before I just scream into the void, I thought it’d be nice to introduce myself before the ramblings begin --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
