		<description><![CDATA[I have so much to digest from yesterday&#8217;s event at the Japanese American National Museum, Honor Thy Children, that I don&#8217;t know where to start. Actually, first I should start with thanking Harold Kameya for inviting me to be a speaker.  I&#8217;m not sure if he was a little nervous letting me speak at such [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The other night I randomly started reading my old journal. I was glued to the computer for nearly two and a half hours, reading three year&#8217;s worth of entries dating back to 2002. This was back when livejournal and xanga were popular, I was obsessed with Dashboard Confessional, and living on the east coast wasn&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Happy May, my friends. I have officially been in LA for over a year now&#8211;I survived! Although I still have no concept of direction and don&#8217;t know how to find the 405 without my trusty GPS, I&#8217;ve grown in many other ways. LA has pushed me to actively work on improving my craft and network [...]]]></description>

We had a nice chat about my It Gets Better video, my experiences in high school,  my coming out experience, and my life post-high school.

		<description><![CDATA[I kicked off 2011 in a new city. It&#8217;s strange to be here in LA&#8211;the streets were so quiet on New Year&#8217;s Eve and in the morning, there was nothing to sweep up outside. Today is Chinese New Year and again the streets are quiet. Recently I made a trip to Angel&#8217;s Knoll in downtown [...]]]></description>

I forgot how much I love Seattle.  I love how nature juxtaposes itself with its city life and how winter feels like a real season, not some watered down version of it like here in Los Angeles.
