Honestly I didn't think that I would like this type of autobiographical books, when I don't even know the person at all. Especially since Chacha is a little too positive and bubbly for me. However, I finished the entire book because he has a very interesting perspective and humorous way of writing. Every Asian kid who's gone through caning and verbal ridicule will understand what it's like - the harsh environment where nothing you do is ever enough or correct. To establish a career in US as an Asian face is even harder. Chacha captures the feeling where you don't belong anywhere, so you start realizing that being yourself is enough, others' expectations and opinions truly don't matter. I really enjoyed this, was a good read, and I learnt from Chacha's work experiences with haute couture brands and as a university professor.
