2021 in Review

Highlights & Memories for 2021: 

Began the year with lots of chess and Queen’s Gambit

Making a snowman with Jon in Prospect Park- coziest day ever. 

Ordering tons of Ki Sushi with Jon at 158 15th. I miss the tofu cream cheese bagel place, the almond croissants and Reyes burritos

Talking to John Park on Clubhouse while waiting for Domino’s pizza

Spontaneously deciding to stay a night in a hotel, getting Jewish breakfast at Barney Greengrass and then walking down to Lincoln Center for the best halal

Met cloisters in Harlem, sitting under the cherry blossoms and then eating Dominican food and going to the Botanic Gardens

Taking a spontaneous trip back to Chicago, staying with Hayoung and revisiting my old neighborhood around Rush

Getaway excursion for Jon’s birthday. Celebrating with lychee and green tea roll, and roasting food on the fire pit (burnt pizza)

Taking a surfing class and being really afraid of the waves 

Trying the fried rice ball in North Boston while Jon was away for the bachelor party

Driving up to Dartmouth for Connor’s birthday

Moving into my parent’s apartment and cleaning for like 2 days straight. 

Going to the US Opens in Queens and getting dim sum really late at night in Flushing

My graduation! Driving all the way up to Ithaca right after Mid Autumn Morgan team event- going to meet Jon Olin, seeing Medium friends at CTB, taking a tour of the new Humec building and chatting with So-Yeon

Going to Tiffany’s on my birthday and getting my first really expensive piece of jewelry with my mom

A lot of good times at Cindy’s apartment with Emily, Brian, and more

Read 1 book

Looking back at 2021, I’m proud of the person I’ve become and also astonished as to how transformative this year has been. I’m a much more independent person, and live by myself now. I have more responsibility taking care of the apt by myself but living alone has allowed me to enjoy New York City to its fullest. I’ve been able to connect with so many more people by meeting friends of friends, go out late at night to drink at a bar or go to a concert. And I’m able to be spontaneous which is something I was working towards for this year- I can choose to go wherever I want whenever I want and the freedom to do that is so refreshing.

This year, I’ve forged my own identity and I have a clear understanding myself for the first time. I know what I’m good at (blue sky thinking, leadership, teaming and community) and what I want in my career (something related to startups). The affirmation that I received while working on Soulo was life changing and I miss that energy. I’m fearless because after talking to investors, I feel like there’s really nothing too complicated or too difficult to figure out. I’m more blunt, saying what I want and what I think directly simply because that’s how they communicate and not waste time. I feel grateful for all the experiences this past year and how it’s shaped me. 

Looking ahead at 2022, I’m nervous to spend the entire year doing long distance and it feels uncertain as to where everything will end up. But at the same time, I know it’ll challenge me and give me space to grow myself in other ways. I’m looking forward to traveling to Europe, adopting a cat, growing my hobbies, and challenging myself in my career, and being reunited with Jon at the end of the year (and seeing how he’s challenging himself in his career). Hoping for a god year, here’s to 2022.

House Hippo (Canada)

Concerned Childrens' advertisers PSAs Canada. (I'm not kidding, we need some of these back. Remaster them or remake them or run them raw, I don't care. These messages are invaluable. As much as we like to knock on anyone born after 04, I believe they deserve to learn what we did)

Discovery Channel (and it's Science spinoff channel)

Vsauce

Deadliest Catch

River Monsters

Bear Grylls

Survive This

Air Crash Investigations Mayday (this show introduced me to the concept of 'metal fatigue' which came in handy during robotics class)

How It's Made

Canada's worst driver

Mythbusters

The Colony (Discovery Channel)

Sears Canada

Future Shop Canada

Daily Planet

(Okay just go to YouTube and search up "The world is awesome boom de ya da)

Cash Cab Toronto

Destroyed in seconds

Dirty Jobs

Inventions that Shook the world

Mighty Ships (When some dude at Wonderland asked where my inspiration for Lego building comes from, I cited this show, this is the single strongest memory I have of it)

Monster Ships

The time when Guinness book of world records was relevant

Sharkboy and Lava girl

Spy Kids (If I could change history, I'd alter Sharkboy and Lavagirl to canonically fit within the shared universe of Spykids)

Pawn Stars

Monsters inside me

Rush Hour (Jackie Chan)

Jackie Chan in general

Shark Week

Smallville

The Zone, YTV

3rd and bird

Barney (and whoever created the violent version can screw off)

Care Bears

Thomas the tank engine

When it was announced that we'd be the first generation in modern history to die before our parents

There's probably a lot more but my brain is small
