All About Me!


 

    Hi! My name is Miyali Lias (pronounced Mia-lee) but people know me better as Miya. My name is Korean and Hispanic, and to many people, very awkward to pronounce. This school year is my first year attending Glendale Community College, I am a full-time student planning on majoring in Political Science but am also prepared if something changes my path. I am also a cosmetology student at The Studio Academy of Beauty. 

    With my busy schedule its hard to keep up with my interests, but my main ones include cosmetics and spirituality. I spend a lot of time reading my tarot cards, interacting with my crystals, and keeping up with the alignment of the stars and planets. All of it reassures me I am going the right path in life. Another big interest of mine is my music. I absolutely love listening to music and truly appreciating production and lyricism. Some of my favorites at the moment (its always changing) is Lana Del Rey, 21 Savage, Mac Miller, and SZA. 

    My biggest pet peeve is definitely being interrupted when talking. If you try talking over me I can guarantee you I can talk louder than you. Another one is just plain rude people. I try to believe that no one is truly intentionally rude but as someone who has worked 5 jobs in customer service, I'm starting to question that belief.

    My goal at the moment is to keep my scholarship for at least my first year in college, so far I am on track! I know it seems impossible being a full time worker, full time student, and part time trade school student but I refuse to give up without trying. 

    My uniqueness really starts from my name. Once you get to know me, my unique name really starts to fit with my personality. Though the biggest thing that stands out from me would definitely be how much responsibility I have taken on at only 18. Leasing an apartment, working so much and attending two schools is definitely isn't what someone fresh out of high school would normally be worrying about. I know it seems like a lot, and trust me it definitely is, but I just need to focus on the big picture and keep my optimism.

    I am so excited to see my blog grow over time, until next time!

#9 And Now You Know

  Have you ever taken a second to question where a majority of animal by-products come from? Have you ever questioned how those products get placed on the shelves of grocery markets? Taking a second to do a basic google search on how these products are produced would be beneficial, but since you are already here I will elaborate. The industrialization of farming has been quite possibly the worst thing that has ever come to farming. 99% of farming products like meat, dairy, produce, etc come from these kinds of farms. Why is it so bad? They take cheaper routes to make their products and use methods that are inhumane to animals and just shy of being lethal to humans. Dairy farming is one of the most guilty productions of this. They are extremely inhumane to their cows by injecting them with drugs that make them overproduce milk than what they naturally produce. These drugs then make their way into the products we consume daily. Another way they hurt humans is because of the pollutio

#7 Fresh

  Food has always been a staple in survival for humans thru generations and generations. As time progressed food distribution has evolved from simple farming to huge corporations mass-producing everything from produce to bottled water. The movie, Fresh, really deep dives into what is happening in these farming facilities and how things go from the soil onto grocery store shelves. Its purpose is to explore the exploitation of animals and the cheap products used to grow produce. I was already hyper-aware of the corruption happening behind closed doors, but to many, this is a very big eye-opener. This film is projected to educate those who never thought about where their dinner was coming from. Fresh does not hold back on the ugly side of this industry by providing real interviews on both sides of the farming world. It shows the thick line that separates who is farming for the greater good, versus the farmers doing it for the most profit.  Although I was very hyper-aware of this indu
