My bedroom never truly felt mine. To me, it was simply a place that I kept my stuff and slept in. I needed it to feel like my sanctuary away from the rest of the world, so I set out to do a complete makeover. While it's still a work in progress, I thought I [...]
For as long as I can remember my mom and older sister have taken me to various thrift stores such as Goodwill to buy clothes. We're a family of immigrants and growing up we didn't have much money to go out to the mall and spend lavishly on expensive garments. As a child, I used [...]
