Formal Introductions :

'Hi, I was born in Thai refugee's camp and at the age of seven my family and I was sponsored to the cold area of the maps lol. I have been living in this strange enviromental weather for exactly 16 years now. So cold here and it is too peaceful, makes me feel soo lonely and boring...We have 4 seasons her: spring, summer, fall and winter. We also have a small Khmer community here, so we do celebrate some of Khmer traditional cultural festival. Anyhow, I graduated high school in the year 2000. Currently, I am working hard to save money to complete my last year of college. My life is so boring right now. Just focusing on making money for school, no love life for me, had been putting walls around my heart in order to stay focus, ooh soo sad. My parents are strict and very old-fashioned Khmer people; I like Khmer gentle culture so am happy to follow it. My dad is a Khmer music teacher, e.g. traditional music, dances and so on..

Back before the war started, my dad is a professor at traditional music, especially these kinds. He use to perform or organized traditional entertainment for the royals palace and more...but now he's too tired out, I guess its time for his retirement. Listening to Mohori's (ancient mystical instrumentals heavenly music) makes me want to get up and dance APSARA dances that my dad use to teach me...hehee, been soo long I think am not as flexible now a day, oh I want to start performing it, but my mom refuses to let me joint; sooo unfair, its o.k. though cause am to busy with Education plus huge among of exam and test....eeeekkkk so stressful....
