Hi! I'm Stella! Welcome to my "space." I was
born in Manila. I grew up in Dallas, and i moved to New Orleans in 1982 because of my Dad's job. I went to Louisiana State University where i met Nichiren Buddhism in 1985. Buddhism has changed my life spiritually
to the core. I chant the phrase Nam-myoho-
renge-kyo. I received a Bachelor of Arts in
Theatre from the University of New Orleans. Just recently i was reintroduced to music. I took 12 years of classical piano growing up. I never realized how much music plays a part in my life(especially when you're listening to terrible music). I love meeting famous people. I love treating them like "regular" people because that's what they are. I've met many famous people. Well, maybe not THAT many. But, i've met all the people i've wanted to meet except for maybe Edward Norton. To me, i've lived a very hard life and have struggled with painful issues. That's why i call myself a Heroine. Because up until now - I HAVE WON!
~~~~~~~~~~~~"When we create or appreciate art, we set free the spirit trapped within. That is why art arouses such joy. Art, whether skillfully executed or not - is the emotion, the pleasure of expressing life as it is. Those who see art are moved by its passion & strength, its intensity and beauty. That is why it is impossible to separate life from art. Political
and economic developments may seem to dominate
the news, but culture and education are the forces that actually shape an age, since they transform the human heart." ~Daisaku Ikeda
