I've... learned how to smile... Even when I'm feeling sad.

This is the about section of the domain owner, yours truly!

Tite Kubo has symbolize the white moon as Rukia throughout various poems in Bleach. So, I thought it was a clever way to title this section as such, since it correlates to both the domain name and the network name. In a way, I like to think of my web projects here as stories by me to you.

I have been online for a long time. My digital footprint has been on a journey and that means I have gone by several different aliases that you may know me by. These are the major ones:

ffyunie (deviantart)
2003-??? | not active
sakuyaaa (otome game tumblr)
2014-2018 | not active
samuraiblues (livejournal)
2005-2011 | not active
solacesque (resin craft store)
2018-2023 | not active
sorayomi (retired cosplayer & current alias)
2010-present | semi-active
wisteriaphyte (FFXIV related alias)
2020-present | very active

Honestly, I did not need all the different aliases and just wanted to separate them by different hobbies. While I am no longer active in some circles and therefore do no use those aliases anymore, they bring me some nice memories. So, I wanted to leave them here. Nowadays, I use sorayomi and wisteriaphyte. You can call me Lene too.

I was born in California and currently reside in Minnesota. I am a second generation Hmong (Southeast Asian) immigrant and grew up in a huge family; second youngest of nine children.

Nowadays when I am not working, I am usually playing Final Fantasy XIV and interact with parts of the community. I do not really have the energy to juggle several fandoms now, but I am really enjoying my time in Final Fantasy XIV circles.

I am not active in cosplay communities anymore, but all the artistic skills I have learned from my active years, I use them to handsew and handcraft various projects from time to time.
