BoJokeBoJokeS2 Ep.6 | Forever 21 (Heidi's Solo)🥣 BIG FAMILIES, NEXT CHAPTERS IN LIFE 🥣 Not 5, not 6 but Heidi had 16 people living at her house at one point in her life. The fascinating part? They were all her relatives, while she was the youngest of the household. It was like a party everyday. Not a lot of people have their relatives living in the same city, but luckily for her, 90% of her relatives live in Vancouver. They're a loud and large bunch whenever there's a family gathering so it's rare for Asian families to all get along. It's best to cherish every moment with them. Tune in as...2022-07-2438 minBoJokeBoJokeS2 Ep.5 | Not Gonna Hide My Pride (ft. Xinyu Yang)🥣 LOVE IS ALL THE SAME 🥣 *wink wink* How you doin? Have I seen you somewhere before? OR NOT. *slowly walks away* Love is hard when it's not reciprocated. Though sometimes we just have to believe in it for it to happen naturally. As spoken rightfully by our guest this week, everyone deserves at least three chances. As long as those three chances don't continue to trigger a person's insecurities, the relationship will likely continue. This week we have a very good friend come on to talk about his version of love. Of course, we have our own versio...2022-07-171h 12BoJokeBoJokeS2 Ep.4 | Ick-zema (Vivian's Solo)🥣 LIFE WITH ECZEMA 🥣 There are times where no one will understand your current situation except you. There will be no one there to truly understand how you feel unless they've been through the same thing. Though every situation is different and every experience is different as well. This week is a bit special. We have one host talk about her experiences and what she finds important. Everything about self-care and the struggles of eczema. So if you want to know more about what eczema is or if you struggle with it yourself. This week will be extremely helpfu...2022-07-1028 minBoJokeBoJokeS2 Ep.3 | Don't Cross My Lines🥣 BOUNDARIES 🥣 DON'T CROSS THE LINE. Not everyone knows what to do or how to do it when something happens all of a sudden. Imagine something extremely uncomfortable happens. How likely are you to react to change the situation? Or, How likely are you to ignore it? Of course, each and every situation is different. But, you will always be in control of your own actions. By setting boundaries and understanding how you feel in that moment will help prevent unnecessary stress later on. This helps better your relationships, with not just others, but yourself. Personally, I think a lot...2022-07-0359 minBoJokeBoJokeS2 Ep.2 | Life At Yu-Bee-See (ft. The Naked Roommate)🥣 POST SECONDARY STRUGGLES PT.2 (UBC VS.

We are back with Season 2! And, we are excited to share our experiences again. To begin our season, this episode is not a regular story. This takes place at the start of March 2020, when everyone was locked under their own roof. Struggling. Running out of toilet paper, hoarding canned foods, and taking all the pasta there is in stores. This is a true story.
