Valentine’s Day Nail Art
February is known as the month of love, which is represented by hearts that are usually pink or red. Since hearts are a simpler shape to create using fun colors, they make the perfect design to use on nail art. In the past few years, the recent trend of doing your own nails and having more out-going nail art designs has increased the amount of holiday-themed nail art inspirations that you can find all over different social media platforms. I have always loved doing my own nail art and designs since I was in elementary school, so I personally enjoy seeing new creative designs that inspire me to continue doing…

My Experience On APSA’s New York Trip
On December 3, 2022 APSA held their annual New York City trip. This was my first time going on the trip though, so I was a little nervous. Before this trip, I had never been on a school trip in college. This seemed like a good opportunity though, it was only for a day and it was free. Well, I had to make a down payment of $10 just to secure a spot on the list, but afterwards they gave the money back. Even if it was $10 to go on the trip, I would have wanted to go anyway because it would have been a nice break from school…

Asian Comfort Food
After a long semester, it is time for winter break. For many, this means coming home and being around the ones you love. There is no better feeling than being able to finally relax and unwind with friends and family. Additionally, there is the excitement of the holiday season. But out of all the joys of being back, I mostly look forward to home cooking. While away at school, I often long for the delicious meals my family or I create. It is the best when you get to come back and make the foods that you love eating. Here are a few of my favorite dishes to eat during…

While the holidays have just passed, gift-giving is a year round task that may sometimes cause us extra stress as we ponder over the perfect present for our loved ones. One of the most classic gifts you can’t go wrong with this year is an adorable plushie. Whether it's a sibling, roommate, or even a gift for yourself, everyone loves a squishy and soft toy to lay on their bed and keep them cozy. For the past few years, squishmallows have been all over Tik Tok pages, Pinterest boards, and gift wish lists among so many people (including myself). However, as they have grown so popular, the brand has made…

With all the new anime coming out right now, there is one brand new anime that took the anime community by storm. Back in April, a new anime called Spy x Family was released and quickly rose to be a fan favorite.

What is Sustainable Art?
When I think of sustainable art, I think of creating sculptures from recycled materials. I also think of Spencer Shay from iCarly, who created many abstract pieces made from the most random things, like a plastic bottle robot. While I would call some of his works from the show sustainable, I don’t think the giant toast sculpture made from pounds and pounds of butter counts. iCarly was a hit show that many people watched, and this was my introduction to sustainable art and I bet many others too.
