Greetings!

Hello everyone and welcome to my blog/website. My name is Erika Pen and I’m a senior in high school. I am a big social activist and believe in kindness and helping others. I plan to major in psychology in college with the hopes of adding social work and/or asian studies or peace studies as my minor. I hope to become a child psychologist and help break the barriers about mental health taboo in the Asian communities. Below are some fun( or well what I find fun) facts about me and what I like to do!

I’m one of the student founders of the national project, We Are America. We Are America works with teachers around the country to help redefine what it means to be American. We then have students published their own stories on what makes them America. 

I drink too much bubble tea. It doesn’t help that I work part-time at a bubble tea cafe. 

I’m captain of the color guard team at my high school. I currently spin on both flag and saber and plan to spin in college with an independent winter guard. 

I have horrible eyesight. My left eye is halfway to being legally blind(whoops). 

I love making new friends! I hope to make lots of new friends with this blog. Feel free to send me a message if you want to chat!

My hopes for this blog is to raise awareness in the communities about the problems we face today. I want to connect with others who have similar ideas in the hopes of discovering ways to change the world we live in. As a young Asian American woman, I believe in raising awareness about the struggles we face from day to day. I believe in breaking barriers and creating new solutions. I hope this blog will help others like me to connect and come together. Until nexts times, Cheers!

POSITIVE WEDNESDAY: CHANGE the way you feel by CHANGING the way you think so you can CHANGE the world.

Reflect just for a day and fix it, but don’t let your past bring you down. The past is meant to be learned from and not hold on to. #reinventyourself #reflectingonlife #changeforthegood #newyearcoming (at Anchorage, Alaska) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJWgjgsrpMs/?igshid=x8ahqj5mes60

Found a place in my room for this drawing.

3 Weeks of Change

I have been furloughed for an initial 3 weeks. So I decided that seen as I have no where to go and nothing to do, I was going to do what I’ve been meaning to get round to for while...get healthy! 

Now, I don’t expect to ‘get healthy’ and maintain a brand new lifestyle in 3 weeks, but now is the perfect time start a journey.

If I develop good habits now, maybe I can carry those on long term.

During these 3 weeks, I’m going to:

- pay attention to what I’m eating

- exercise at least once a day - even if that is just doing some light stretches for 10 minutes or going for short walk.

- Do some form of yoga once a day - even if its just a 5 minute meditation.

Have you ever went out for a walk to rediscover who you used to be? Kind of impossible in a way. Because things are constantly evolving around us. Nothing stays the same. At least not exactly the same. #winter #photography #rant #selflove #changeforthegood
