This is the blog I created in Fall 2022. May I Talk A Little Bit? Is where I share my personal stories, opinion on an issue, write movie and book reviews, and memories throughout my life. I always believe that we have a voice and it is really important to tell what we think and express how we feel. Throughout every post, I want to tell the stories from my point of view. Perhaps, it may be different from yours or same like yours. But either way, it is my voice and I should not be worry about what others may think about. Until now I have been writing several blogs and even though the readers of my blog are not a lot but I’m glad because there are people reading them and it motivates to write more.

Podcast Host, Something You’ve Already Known
Santa Ana, CA 92704 — 2020 - 2022
Link: https://spotifyanchor-web.app.link/e/VFiICOS7xsb This is the podcast show produced by myself. I think that there are so many things happening during this time. Each day there is one or more problems occur to our daily lives. Each day there is something to talk about. And one thing for sure that we’ve already known those issues. I will discuss what problem that we are facing with, analyze the concern of people toward that problem, express my point of view on that problem in a podcast. And just like that, it was created. The name “Something You’ve Already Known” meant that every issue is right next to you, you know about it, and you are looking for some other opinions to see whether they are like what you think or not. There are angry moment, sad, joy, disturbing. But they are all real problem. You and me have those feelings too. So let’s talk about it. Crew Member, McDonald’s
Garden Grove, CA — 2020 - 2022
With the job at McDonald’s, we worked as a team because every task at McDonald’s is tough and difficult and with one person, there is no way to finish it. I often worked at the cashier and the drive-thru. I took order, I helped the customers with what they need. I sometimes volunteered to stay over to help everyone because the restaurant was always crowd in a special time of the day. In this job, I learned how to be patient and professional at work as well as the communication skills.
