Parents and teachers always taught me how to live. I was a good student and followed the advices truthfully and mindlessly. After 28 years, I finally figured out that they were just advices. It’s still up to me to decide how I want to live, dream BIG and live fearlessly and with clarity. It’ll be a lifelong endeavor to always live with intentions, in every aspect of life. I’m beginnign to experience the outcome, in school, in relationships, in the house that I live in, and in the things that I learn. Living in intentions is like tuning the volume of what I want really loud, things just fall in the right place at the right time. How fantastic and easy is that?!

Since high school days, my best friend Yin and I have started picturing a cute little cafe that we’d like to own together. The cafe is located in a quaint neighborhood. It would serve yummy coffee, tea, pastry, and food from all around the world. There are freshly cut flowers or flowers in pots out by the front door. I will play my guitar during my free time. We will welcome all of our friends to vacation to our little cafe, ... and work with us.
This isn’t a cafe for making money. This is a place where our friends come together. It’s a garden that celebrates lives filled with peace and harmony.
