How to Make: Old-Fashioned Valentine's

As we begin the month of February, here are five easy steps to making something special for your "Valentine"

Items needed: 

Old-fashioned heart shaped doilies
Valentine stickers and/or cut outs
A glue stick
Pair of sharp scissors 



Step 1: Take heart-shaped doilies and separate them individually. 


Step 2: Place desired Valentine stickers and cut outs nearby.


Step 3: Take your glue stick and rub against the larger doily. Then, take the smaller doily and stick it on top of the glued area. Once completed, place the combined doilies upside down to glue for 5 minutes.
 

Step 4: Rub your glue stick against your desired cut out or valentine sticker. 


Step 5: After the Valentine is dried, you can add a bow, write a small message on the back of the doily, add an attachment or simply leave it plain. 
 


Enjoy!

Chakotay and Seven of Nine: An Unbreakable Link

Image
In commemoration with  Valentine's Day, I decided to write an article on my favorite "Star Trek" pairing: Chakotay and Seven of Nine. Through social media, I have seen this fictional couple bear the brunt of despise, hatred and retaliation. On the other hand, I have always seen a unique  relationship of two individuals in the future. From the moment they appeared on screen together I thought they had instant chemistry. The two characters showed that love is unconditional and just because a first meeting is not pleasant, love can bloom in the most unbeknownst manner. I hope this following article can shed light on their relationship and why they matter.  With patience and time, a spiritual person like Chakotay and a logical scientist like Seven formed a tender bond and left an impact as a tasteful and wholesome romance. Chakotay was able to understand a facet of Seven that no other crewman could. In return, she honored and respected him. Starting from season 4 through seas

My Voyage With Voyager

Watching Star Trek: Voyager has changed my life. I grew up in a household with a single, disabled mother who could not work. Throughout nineteen formative years, my mother dedicated herself to raising and educating me. I did not have many role models growing up, save for her and some influential figures in my favorite subject in school, which was history. In addition to this, I have danced classical ballet since the age of four.  My first contact with Voyager came at the age of sixteen in Bozeman, Montana when I stayed with a ballet host-family during the summer. I had never cared to watch Star Trek in the past and had no "Trekkies" in my family. However, as I was settling in for the two weeks I was staying, they asked if I wanted to join them in watching an episode of "Star Trek: The Next Generation".  After I came home, I researched the franchise and also learned about Voyager and DS9. Less than two years later, I returned to the family for another summer intensiv
