Extraordinary People

about

“This EP covers the complicated topic of being a woman caught between two worlds, never feeling like I quite fit into the Western culture I was raised in or the South-Asian culture I come from. Ever since I was a child, I’ve yearned for the safety of “fitting in.”

But I also discovered (quite recently) that I actually enjoy standing out. And even though I still vacillate between embracing the comfort of being ordinary and the glory of being extraordinary, I prefer to wear differences on my sleeve. I want to embrace the extraordinary parts of myself. "
