I definitely agree that the future is not female, but for different reasons I think. I think that saying the future is female is exclusionary to other genders, including males. The future should be equal, never dominated by one gender for any reasons. Isn’t that what feminism is all about? As people who advocated for equality, we should of course be seeing more female representation than there is right now, but there should be a balance between all genders and therefore all perspectives. What do you think @winnie liu @billie chang @Kaushikee @megan fannin @Edward He @Eric Enriquez ?

It's hard to avoid the feelings of being single on Valentine's Day, but my favorite way to celebrate it is Leslie Knope (Parks & Rec) style and do a Galentine's Day instead:
"Oh, it's only the best day of the year. Every February 13th, my lady friends and I leave our husbands and our boyfriends at home, and we just come and kick it, breakfast-style. Ladies celebrating ladies. It's like Lilith Fair, minus the angst. Plus frittatas."

Super cool that you are still on track @LeighaSommer. I actually made alot of my New Year resolutions mid last year and I am happy to say I am still on track. I wanted to be healthier (lost 25 pounds) and travel (heading to Trinidad next month). Now I want to focus on my finances and I'll start with getting my taxes done in March. I usually do them myself but this year I want to get a financial advisor.

I have a planner where I list all of my classes every day with the time and the location a week before classes start so I'll be prepared for a full schedule again. I came to campus early in order to get settled back in and ran some errands to get some stuff out the way to prepare for the beginning of the semester. I also suggest taking the weekend to just relax and pamper yourself. You can work out, give yourself a spa day, put some candles on, listen to music, and just put yourself in a tranquil state. Hope this helps :)
