It was just my dad's birthday the other day, so I decided to showcase one of his most wholesome, vulnerable moments from the past π A few years ago we went to go visit my extended family in Hawaii, and it was a pretty epic trip. We collected a bunch of new, unique experiences, but when it was ...

Growing up my parents never let us have a dog or cat as a pet until the day they finally broke the news of us moving to a new neighborhood. Moving to a new place was very hard for me and my sister, as we had to sacrifice our preexisting life for a new one. However, after we got our dog Dash (aka ...

Taking a break from posting a comic-comic this week, and wanted to just spend the time doing relaxing drawings of my little family.

Happy Belated Fathers Day!!

One reason I was a bit hesitant about getting cats at first was how it would change my daily life.

When we first moved into our new house, I felt guilty for not being so in love with it at first. I kinda knew I would feel that way because we got a fixer upper, and it was the foresight that we mainly relied on. In the beginning it was hard to really view the place as βhome,β but as we gradu...

I never really talked about this, but in middle school I missed almost a full month of school due to an issue with one of my kidneys.

Like many others in the AAPI community, the recent rise in hate crimes towards Asian Americans has caused a lot of internalized experiences with racism to resurface.
