Hi, Lenka and Eikakou :)

(To be honest, I have not been very active here because I am trying to avoid spoilers! I just recently got Netflix at my house and am waiting for the 12th of May to binge-watch episodes 4-7.)

To reply to the last comment: I think you have a very solid philosophy when you talk about not worrying about your future plans. And I can relate to your 'struggle'. I'm also in uni, had a couple of crushes but never been on a date or had an SO. And it's not something I'm worrying about right now ... I'll just do my studies and take life as it comes.

I feel lucky that I've always lived in a very multicultural city and I go to a big, diverse university, which is generally tolerant and accepting. I have always had friends of many different backgrounds (I'm multiracial myself!). But growing up in a Christian home means being surrounded by people and ideas that are more conservative than usual, even if I am not not particularly conservative. For example, my 20-year-old friend recently got engaged to her bf, which I did see coming, but it still shocked me. And a number of friends my age (or not much older) are dating or in long-term relationships.

It's a little disconcerting, but even though I would love to get married and have kids (I've always loved kids), I'm not going to rush it. I have other things to worry about - the price of uni debts just went up in my country and I feel a bit like I'm destined to be a poor student forever D:
