The Pursuit of Happiness

Kam Raslan | Rahmah Pauzi | Bernice Chauly

15-Dec-18 17:00

The Pursuit of Happiness

On this week’s episode, Kam enlightens us on how geology has a rich relationship between Malaysia’s culture and heritage. Next, Rahmah discusses how the notion of happiness is challenged in this social media era where we constantly compare ourselves to everyone else’s highlight reel. Lastly, Bernice provides literary examples of the gothic and how this genre persists today in the shape of the human desire to constantly seek for something to be afraid of.
