Place that makes you happy and why: the tunnelbana in Stockholm because I can just chill and listen to music and still be going places. Like I'm outside and surrounded by people but I don't have to be interacting with them if I'm traveling by myself, and I can justify zoning out for like 20 minutes in between doing stuff. Some of the stations are quite pretty as well.

At school: English and maths. Now it's difficult to choose. Much depends on the teacher. but I'd say that it's Scandinavian media and Swedish translation. I have to admit that practising in sound-proof both for simultaneous interpretation was kinda fan though I was afraid of it :)

[wocinsolidarity]

Okay, not a woman of color but I am a man of color and a friend of Jen's and I just wanted to offer my support during these trying times. I run a blog called Oberlin Microaggressions and we'd get the EXACT SAME SHIT from Oberlin students who were just so uncomfortable with their own privilege that the only way they knew how to respond to my blog was to call me sensitive or crazy or angry and blah blah blah.

Thank you for the support it’s frustrating at times and its nice to know we are not getting just hate mail.
