Well, I was raised in the "To be seen and not heard" era and was taught not to "honk your own horn", so I'll try to do my best.. Here we go!I was born and raised on the island of Oahu and am of Japanese, Chinese, Filipino, Hawaiian, Okinawan, and Korean decent. Alumni of the Honolulu Boy Choir, Karate Extrodanaire, Graduated from Kamehameha Schools. (just barely) I am an INFP (personality type). Kinda quiet, reserved, don't care for the whole "bar/club scene" thing and enjoy learning more about my japanese heritage. I currently work for the Department of Emergency Management. Yes, believe it or not, I am one of the guys that presses the button for the monthly siren test for the state (Yes Kate, we do push for the entire state)and am also responsible for the Community Emergency Response Team and Civil Defense Volunteer Programs. Prior to administering the Civil Defense program, I volunteered there for 8 years, and have responded to quite a few disasters. The Mothers Day rockslide at Sacred Falls, brushfires, various floods, including the Manoa Flood to name a few. Prior to this, I used to be with the Honolulu Police Department for a short while... (Civil Defense pays more, and you dont get shot at!)From January to May, I work as the Night Manger/Sergeant at Arms for the House of Representatives. This coming year would be my 4th year as supervisor and 5th year total. I must be crazy working both this job and my day job.... 80 hour work weeks for 3 1/2 months.Ummmm... I was a boy scout and eagle scout! Oh yay! and continue my community service through Kiwanis International.. Its kinda like Lions or Rotary. We hold monthly dances for the differently challenged, and conduct other service projects for the youth of Hawaii.When I am not doing the above, I enjoy fishing (trawling, shoreline, but no bottom fishing....barf), hunting, riding horse, spending time with close friends, playing music, studying up on japanese history, going to bon dances, watching japanese and korean TV, and helping with crowd control and parade movement at various parades, like the Honolulu Festival and Pan Pacific Festival.Whew!!! I think that is enough... If you wanna know anything else, just ask, I don't bite..... Normally. You can also try me on aim at haseken808
Your personality is best represented by the
traditional Japanese Katana. You are brave
beyond words and rarely (if ever) act for your
own personal gain. Your honor is very
important to you, and you strive to better
yourself and help others. You try not to let
emotions get in the way of making a sound
decision, and are usually quite successful.
