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 poll...

#8 Still Over It

  If your girlfriend has been listening to the new Summer Walker album Still Over It you better buy her some flowers. Chances are she gonna be mad at you even though your name isn’t London on Da Track. Summer Walker recently released her sequel album to Over It with Still Over It . This album is after her recent split with her producer and baby’s father, London On Da Track. This album had every girl wanting to know what London’s address is because we just want to “talk.” In Still Over It, Summer Walker rips London up for being an absent father and leaving her during her pregnancy and even calls him out by name for cheating on her. Summer really did NOT hold back at all and gave her a piece of her mind with her beautiful, soft vocals. Each song is full of lyrics and emotion showing she recognizes she deserved better and has been able to get past the heartbreak, but not without the last word. Some songs that stand out to me the most on this album are “ Unloyal ”, “ 4th Baby Ma...

#5: Tailgater Allstate Analysis

  Everyone with a license has some sort of pet peeve amongst other drivers. In the ad, “ Tailgater ” by Allstate, it covers the annoying tailgater on the road that we have all come across at one point. The ad portrays Mayhem driving behind someone, being so close that they are barely touching their bumper. The driver is too distracted by how close the driver behind them is, causing them to not pay attention to the road in front of them. This leads to the driver crashing into the car in front of them, while the driver that was tailgating is able to leave the scene without any damage to their vehicle.  The purpose of the ad is, of course, to convince the reader to buy insurance, but the way it is portrayed is extremely effective. It starts with the approach of relating to the audience, I mean, we have all been there right? Any driver can say they were the ad’s driver at one point, which automatically draws in the demographic they are targeting. The driver then expresses thei...
