Focus Character: Nina



Dave breaks up with Nina  (Source: Image taken from Sita Sings the Blues)


Synopsis: 
Nina receives a breakup email from Dave which is atrocious. She completely falls apart. She cannot stop thinking of the past and becomes more and more lonely. One day, she had enough and decided to call Dave. Nina begs Dave to take her back. Similar to how Sita was so blinded by her love for Rama (also the part where the narrators were talking about Sita's love for Rama was hilarious). In the end, Nina devoted herself to reading the Ramayana and gets a new cat.

Storytelling Ideas: I have an idea on writing a story from the perspective of a text conversation between Nina and her best friend. I would like to elaborate on how Nina picked up the Ramayana book in the first place. This will be such a fun thing for me to type up. I'm excited!

All I knew was Indonesia, the culture, food, language, and basically everything. I moved back to the states to pursue medicine as I do sincerely believe it is my purpose in life.  I am currently in the process of applying to medical schools which have been very hard on my mental health. I've been nothing but anxious, but also excited for what's to come. I am currently working in the emergency department at ...
