Ellicott City has a unique, familiar charm for me. Its plaza — filled with family-style Asian restaurants — instantly takes me back to my high school days in Southern California when my friends and I would explore similar neighborhoods. Much like back then, these eateries don’t rely on tiny portions or fancy plating to impress: They win you over with fresh ingredients and comforting, homestyle flavors. After a satisfying meal, I might treat myself to a cup of bubble tea or wander through HMart to check out what’s new. That lingering sense of comfort and nostalgia always connects me to those carefree high school days, which is probably why I love spending weekends here. In short, food plays a central role in any visit, so here are my top restaurant recommendations — all within a 20–30 minute drive for Hopkins students.

Imagine a bustling metropolis on a weekday morning: vehicles honking, people rushing to work, street vendors setting up shop and delivery trucks weaving through the chaos. Despite the apparent asynchrony, there is order to this chaos. Now, if we shrink this scene down to the microscopic level, we zoom into another bustling system: the human gut microbiome. This is a dynamic and complex ecosystem teeming with trillions of microorganisms checking their own to-do lists to keep us alive.

I have been writing stories for a while now. I cannot remember for how long. Some time in elementary school I decided I wanted to be a writer, after some endless iteration of another Disney-inspired handwritten short story of mine. Though my writing looks a little different now, this future aspiration has not changed. What has changed, though — more recently than I’d like to admit — is how I’ve thought about writing, and how my perspective on it has evolved.

As I was getting acclimated to Hopkins and starting to be involved during my freshman year, I attended the Student Involvement Fair and came across Hopkins Community Connection (HCC). The sign read, “Are you an Advocate for Health Equity?”. Intrigued, I stopped by to chat with a student who explained that HCC connects underserved Baltimoreans with resources such as food stamps and energy assistance programs. Like many of my friends, I put myself on the mailing list and filled out an application. It was a decision I made on a whim that day, which has since reshaped my understanding of healthcare in Baltimore, and more broadly, in America.
