May 22 Word of the Day
A moment that is generally agreed to have had a significant influence on pop culture and everyday life. While the term was coined by Rose McGowan in context of the #MeToo movement, and is mostly associated with the K-pop community, the phenomenon is universal and a basic component of how culture works.
Real world events such as social/political movements, the election of a new U.S. President, major catastrophes and disasters, as well as entertainment such as movies, music and TV, can all function as cultural resets. Notable cultural resets in relatively recent memory include:
* The Beatles appearing on the Ed Sullivan show in 1964
* The Watergate scandal of 1974
* The release of Nevermind by Nirvana in 1991
* The September 11, 2001 attacks
* The election and inauguration of Barack Obama in 2009
* The COVID-19 pandemic

"The Nineties politically started with the fall of the Berlin Wall on November 9, 1989 and the Soviet Union dissolving on December 26, 1991, and ended with both the 2000 Presidential election which saw the victory of George W. Bush and the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 which left people so stupefied that it functioned as something of a cultural reset button." - TV Tropes' article on the 1990s

A girl who is often mistaken for Pushpa and is no taller than 2 feet.
She is, however, a very strong-willed and confident girl who is an amazing listener and an even better singer/guitarist.
If you ever have the chance to meet a Somya, never let her go and make sure you treasure your time with the cute little lass.

Friend X: Hey, did you do the coding homework?
Friend O: Nah, Somya plugged me. She also sang a song for me and made me some tea when I was sick and cheered me up by playing with dolls with me. What a great friend.

Somya is one of best friends you could ever ask for, but she is so kind that people take advantage of her. Somya is a great listener and when you meet her it is like you have grown another lim. Somya has a beautiful voice, she is very insecure and when people say mean things to her they stick. Somya is beautiful in every way imaginable such a great friend. Also, very humorous and outgoing. There’s never a dull moment talking with her, she’s so charismatic but doesn’t acknowledge.
Never change.
Never change.
