Talagang Awkward

Nicole, Daniel, and Jean sit and talk candidly about being socially awkward in the , past, present (during pandemic time), and future, as members of the Filipinx/a/o community. Cool or not cool? Mask or no mask? Save face, gossip, or sit in silence? Socially awkward or Suplado/a (snob)? We're all still living in the pandemic even with vaccinations, so how are we all navigating how to live having being cooped up for so long?
