I am sooooo glad that I came to this event!! It was such a great experience introducing myself and sharing my experiences with young Asian adoptees and their adoptive parents and hearing other people's experiences. The most important thing for me was that I met and connected with others who related to me and understood me. It was great talking to the kids, answering their questions and speaking to their parents. I met some wonderful people who I will continue to meet with in the future. I had never been to the Asian American Resource Center before and I plan to go back for a tour, other events and meetups. Also, the bubble tea was delicious and so was the food (I'm sorry I'm not sure what it was called). My kudos to Hanna and Jieun for all their hard work in organizing and putting this event together. I wish I could have attended a camp like this when I was younger.
I would love to attend other events and even educate myself further on Asian American history and issues. Thank you again! - Amy Sweetland
