Moms/She Run(s) This Town
I have recently joined a group calledΒ Moms/She Run(s) This Town, which is a running group that has chapters all over the States and world. π Although I am not particularly a runner, nor do I plan to join any races any time soon, it has been quite fun to meet some ladies who like exercise…

2nd Article
Remember when I posted about my first paid and published article? Well, the second one is online now! It has a slightly different theme than the first as I do not always want to seem as if I am negative about being Asian and perceptions held of my ethnic background. π It is exciting to…
