c'est la vie.

TIEN: 26 year old Vietnamese-American. University of California, Berkeley Alumna [GO BEARS!], currently working in Emeryville. Originally from San Jose, California. Current obsessions are traveling, food, and fashion, but my passions are a weird mixture of health, science, society, and the community. This is just a mélange of things that I like, things that amuse me, and things I can relate to. [Facebook]
