My Story ·
My parents gave me the name ‘Yashoda’, the first child among three siblings, which is name of mother of lord Krishna. The amazing fact is that the name of both parents in Krishna and Krishnaa. It’s already been 22 years that I got the name and am surviving on this earth. I was born in small town, Surkhet, almost 600 Kilometers far from Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal. Currently I am based in Kathmandu pursuing Bachelors program of Public Health at Nobel College. I believe good education is the most important thing to help me reach my goals. Nine ...
When I was younger I was a mediocre student studying in government school. I progressed after I was sent to private school. My brain is and was really sharp. I didn’t have to study much as I could remember each and every word my teachers used to spell. While I was in fourth grade I took two examinations for two schools i.e. one national and one local.

My parents wasted no time in bundling me up and heading for North York General from our Scarborough townhouse while my younger sister went to stay with neighbors.
Dad literally screeched into the Emergency parking lot! With my mom screaming ...
It’s not the usual sunny day in California, its foggy and I can’t even see the Hollywood sign as I stare out the window on the seventeenth floor of my dentist’s office. So I look at the cars below as the move to and fro, stopping at red lights and making turns; people on there way to wherever they need to go.
