You can't be a Straight A student in life, so pick 3 "Life isn't school- you can't be a Straight A student in all aspects of life. So pick 3 to prioritize."

As someone who finds it hard to set priorities because I want to do everything and also do everything perfectly, it's good to have regular reminders that you have to set your priorities in life, like @hiroko.io's "You can't be a Straight A student in life, so pick 3":

You can't be a Straight A student in life, so pick 3 "Life isn't school- you can't be a Straight A student in all aspects of life. So pick 3 to prioritize."

Read @hiroko.io's “You Can't Be a Straight A Student in Life, So Pick 3” on prioritizing what matters while embracing the journey for a fulfilling life.

I'm not a recovered anxiety-mess, but I'm definitely beginning to find different ways of thinking about my anxiety and chronic over-planning and over-packing tendencies... A lot of learning thru a month-long trip to Taiwan.

Playgrounds here have a lot of feelings

Still vibing #Kaohsiung #Taiwan 🇹🇼

We’re trying to get the toddler to walk instead of always being in a stroller, and a 1.4 km route took us 1 hour this morning 😆 It was a nice hour where he explored a lot of random things we would’ve never noticed if he didn’t point them out, though, so well spent.

That’s what I thought too. He seems to be the Kaohsiung mascot. I wonder if there’s a relationship between them?

We moved over to Kaohsiung few days ago and I’m really loving it here! 😍

Just a paper bag 😂

The chicken nuggets were so crispy 🤤🤤🤤

I think the biggest culture shock I’m having in Taiwan is that McDonald’s happy meals don’t come with that house box or toys and it’s just sadness meals

Apparently it’s a long-loved drink here so I guess there are people who feel punched in the face by asparagus and those who don’t… or maybe people like being punched in the face by asparagus? 🤣🤣🤣

Maybe it’ll come to Japan soon!!

I tried the asparagus juice! It was really interesting. It’s like, refreshing, refreshing, refreshing, refr—— oh god asparagus!!!!!!

I’ve never been punched in the face by an asparagus, but I’d imagine this is how it must feel.

I’m gonna buy it next time I see it because now I’m curious 🤣
