2] when i was 14 my mom was participating in a group painting exhibition and one of the artists there made paper cutting art and i was SO impressed that i decided to try it myself and loved it

it takes a lot of patience and time but the result is sooooo satisfying + the validation is 💯

3] superhero movies have been a huge part of my life since i was 11. the first marvel movie i ever watched was the avengers and i was immediately in love with it. the first spiderman movie i ever watched was the amazing spiderman and i was immediately in love with andrew garfield (watching gwen stacy die was NOT healthy for a 11 year old andrew emma you need to pay for my therapy.).i was out of the superhero movies for a while after the black widow movie turned out to be a disappointment and i didnt watch any of the tv shows for a while either but no way home brought everything back <3 i binged ALL the tv shows <3

my top 10 favourite marvel movies (all across the franchises) in no particular order

Tech Girlie Diaries: being the youngest and only female software engineer on the team

👄 honest stories/lessons only 💅

I just found out I'll get to mentor my first female intern at work and I'm so excited!!! It's so rare that we (not even just our team but the company as a whole) get female interns 🥺 which got me thinking about everything I want to impart to this bright, young mind ✨ since I was once in her shoes 🩰 just without a female mentor 😔 Don't get me wrong(!!), I love my mentors and every chance I get to work with them has been great — they're literally the best dudes I've ever met 🥲 but there are some ~tech girlie things~ that guys just... don't have to deal with in the same way.

Hopefully, if you're also a woman in tech or an ally, these can help you too ☺️ and please let me know in the comments/reblogs/dms/asks if there's anything else I might've missed that you think my mentee should know! ❤️

Unburden Yourself: you do not represent all women ♀️

When I first joined this company as an intern, I was only the second female intern they'd ever had and their first backend female intern. There were no backend female engineers. I felt like I had to constantly prove myself against these bros who seemed to eat, sleep, and breathe code.

But I quickly realized, through the consistent kindness and respect my male colleagues gave me, that it is not a competition (unless it's a bug-solving hackathon, in which case, all other teams can suck it 🍭😜) and no one thinks for a second that I am a representative token of my gender.

Unfortunately, this diversity-affirming culture is still not the case in all workplaces, so this is the Most Important Thing to remember: that you deserve to be treated kindly and with respect by your colleagues AND yourself, so don't settle for anything less! 💕

Take the Day: Care for Yourself First🥇

After finding out I took basically no holidays for a year, my manager at the time was appalled and granted me a month-long vacation (it was amazing). He then proceeded to (kindly) lecture me on the fact that I was no longer an intern and working full-time means making a conscious effort to Not Burn Out™️. My current manager still gives me well-meaning lectures to the same effect, so I guess I haven't really taken this lesson to heart yet?? 🙈 I'll give some examples from what I should've done instead 😂

If that time of the month is killing you and you're straight-up collapsing at your desk: TAKE THE DAY OFF

If your back and wrists are killing you to the point that you physically cannot sit and type: TAKE THE DAY WEEK OFF

If you have personal/family struggles you need to be fully present for: TAKE THE DAY WEEK MONTH OFF

... You get the idea.

Be Your Most Effective Self 🌷

My current manager (literally one of the strongest women I know) and I work well together even though (or maybe precisely because) we have completely different personalities. She is direct, serious, and very goal-oriented 🎯 I tend to take a softer approach, can be completely unserious, and more people/morale focused 🍒

When I was starting out, I really felt I had to be more like my current manager so that people would respect me and take me seriously 😳 That thought daunted me so much because it's totally opposite my natural personality. It wasn't until people started telling me that my personality was a big part of why people like working me and want me on their teams that I started to learn to play to my strengths 💪

Despite our differences, my manager and I are both effective engineers in our own ways ☺️

Good Girls Get What They Deserve 💸

I have been unashamedly aggressive about what I want in my career.

Worked my butt off 🍑 for 2 promotions in 2 years 🌟 when it usually takes twice the amount of time for both! 🏃‍♀️

Communicated my desire to move into management someday to gain more mentorship / project leadership roles and experience 🤓

Your own growth and trajectory is what you have the most control over. Sometimes that means taking a well-deserved break, other times that means hustling and negotiating and networking until you make your dreams a reality.

I've lost count of how many companies I've applied to before landing this job and how many mistakes I've needed to correct even in my current position! So sometimes too, maintaining control means realizing that when you are denied/fail to attain certain opportunities, it makes you available to attend to others that may even be better suited to you in the long-run! 🏃‍♀️

💌: Say it with me, ladies: 🕯️❤️ The new year will be my year! I got this! ❤️🕯️

i had this shayari event at college and this is my first ever so i thought i'd post it here (its about how i've never dated anybody and right now i don't even have a crush so i'd like to manifest a love story)

Ishq naam ke lafz ko itna bola ja chuka hai Ki ab honthon pe uska wazan aata hi nahi Ghalib, Daag aur Jigar ko bhi humne jhootha sabit kar diya Jo kehte hai ki dil diye bina zinda raha jata hi nahi.

Mohabbat ki nahi jisne, us dil ki tadap batlayen kaise? Jo tha hi nahi kabhi, uski judaai samjhayen kaise? Surkh seher, jo itna itarake aati hai Syaah shaam hi janti hai mere raaz use yeh batayen kaise?

Intezaar hai us mahvash ka Jiski tabassum ke liye hum mar jayen Us nazneen, us afreen, us rooh buland ka Jo humari duniya ki mehvar ho jaye

Musalsal alfaazon ka karwaan is tarah unki zubaan se behta jaye Ki us sahil ki aagosh mein hi rehne ka man kar jaye Unki zulfon ki khushbu is qadar sar chadh jaye Ki gulon ka bhi apni ana se aitbar uth jaye

Jaane kaisi hai yeh bechaini jo vusl se pehle hijr ka matam banati hai Jaane kaisa hai yeh samaa jo haal e dil ka ahsaas karata hai

Mom se is dil ko shamma kar jaye ab koi Qitabon ke qisson ko meri bhi dastaan bana de ab koi Dimaag ki tasveer ko haqiqat banade ab koi Mere pet mein bhi titliyaan bhar jaye ab koi Adhoore nahin, faqat akele se dil ka yaar ban jaye ab koi Nausikhiye se is qissago ko sikandar-e-sher bana de ab koi

Iss bahar-e-basant mein, iss shayaron ki bheed mein shayad ek akela hi hoon main Jo bina pankhon ke parwaaz karne aaya hai Ufaq ki doori dekh kar dar jaate hain bahut Humko toh bas urooj karna aata hai.
