Hey everyone,
My friend Anna from RIT started compiling a book called Young Sisters when she was fourteen years old, in search of the true meaning of womanhood. Its a collection of photographs and experiences celebrating girls. Anna and I have now known each other for seven years and its just been great knowing who was interested in my culture and someone who is so passionate about issues of women and human rights. We worked together for the Asian Culture Society and did many performances together.
Anna asked me to write my story for her book sometime back and now its published in her book. She also chose my picture to put on the cover of her book and now the book is on sale at: http://www.lulu.com/content/1419203
Now Anna produced a play and one of the monologues in the play was based on a part of my story. The clip can be viewed at:

I really feel honored that someone would actually use my story in a play. Yay!! This is exciting and made my day!
