Leaning into my creativity
I moved frequently as a kid, changing countries every two years. In each new place, I found new social etiquette, norms and expectations. I didn’t stay long enough to form deeper connections and struggled to make friends.
In 2010, I moved to the United States. With no established groups or activities, I had copious amounts of free time. Therefore, I went to the library every day after school.
At the time, I was enamored by kawaii (Japanese for “cute”) culture and watched videos of cute things constantly. I searched the keyword “cute” at the library catalog and came across “The Cute Book” by Aranzi Aronzo. It’s a book that shows you how to make endearing felt mascots such as bunnies, cats or frogs.
