started dancing before I can remember‚ but I have been told that I was just about three. I started out at a studio that I cannot remember‚ doing ballet and tap.

"What are those?" I asked my mom‚ walking through Toys "R" Us and pointing at a large box. "Those are Legos‚ you can put them together and build things‚" she responded. I stared at them‚ repeating the name in my head. Legos. It was a funny name. They looked like colorful bricks with holes in them. "Can we get them?" I asked. Sure enough‚ we were carrying a box of them to the checkout section. Crazy as it seemed‚ the small blocks mesmerized me as a kid. The different colors‚ sizes‚ shapes‚ all

was brought into Malaysia by sea. Along with a few hundred of my friends in various shapes and sizes‚ we were carefully wrapped in tissue and plastic before being packed into boxes. Unfortunately‚ I was plagued by sea-sickness the minute I was escorted on board. Nausea and queasiness were my constant companions as the sea vessel rocked and rolled during the tedious journey.

Even though he can speak fluent mandarin‚ I can tell he is different from us. That was when
