People never understood why anyone would be so in love with talking. Unsolicited advice on the topic of “suppressing expressing” has been haunting me forever. So here I am, with “Number X”, a space where we dive into things — in the messy and confusing journey of growing up — that are not usually discussed. 无数人说着“学会闭嘴”，他们没有错，但我太爱说话了。《未知述》是一档对话节目，我们讨论困境、希冀、和所有不易被提及的生活点滴。 This is a safe and free space to unleash your voice. Don’t be afraid. 别怕开口，开口了就别怕。

<p>Hi, welcome to the first episode of Number X. This is a safe and free place to let the world know about yourself. My name is Emma, and I am your host today. </p><p>-Guest- </p><p>Claire Vu (she/her), high schooler in Burnaby, Canada, international student from Vietnam, student government Grade 10 Representative. </p><p>-Contents-</p><p>1. People adjust to new environments as much as they change people. </p><p>2. Relationships heal. </p><p>3. First crushes are as early as in kindergarten, and some of them shape our ideas of later relationships. </p><p>4. Secret crushes are exciting, and are frustrating just the same. </p><p>5. Emma could have confessed to that girl who indirectly rejected her in the coffee shop but confessed to her later. </p><p>6. It is fortunate enough to still be friends even after huge emotional outbursts. </p><p>7. Rejections hurt, but fate explains, and time will work things out. </p><p>8. Breakups are part of life, situationship is the way of life, and things happen in your life to help you grow,</p><p>9. Jealousy never creeps up out of nowhere. </p><p>10. We do not agree with our parents on everything, but usually, they are right. </p><p>11. It is way easier to hate than to love, so affection should be taken as a profound act of giving. </p>
