How inanely common. She likes to draw, listen to music, and read books. Detail? What is this detail you speak of? Drawing wise, she has participated in a snobby and elite program called the IB (International baccalaureate) program- more specifically, the art IB program in high school. After toning her art skillz in high school she (to this day) allows them to degenerate.She spends much of her life greatly appreciating music. Listening to all types of genres, she gleefully rips songs to their core and dissects them (like the cadavers! Tee hee!) in order to fully enjoy them. Like all Asian children, she was introduced to the piano at a young age. Later on, she went on to play the flute, Alto/tenor saxophones, alto clarinet, trumpet, and the dreaded vocals. She's only actually halfway decent with four of those instruments. If she whips out any of the other ones, run fast and far.PS she is an English major. There is enough said on the matter of books. Onwards, my friend.
She's always wanted to meet her grandparents, various iconic musicians, and her own personal favourites. She wonders why Rachael Yamagata's CD has been delayed- Summer 2007, yeah right! Once, her ambiguously gay friend and she were walking around WEM and spotted this strikingly hot dude with astounding blond hair. She'd like to meet him. Ohhhhh yeaaaaaah.As an aside, she has already met with cadavers dissected for display (Body Worlds Exhibit 1), the Gods who reside at the pinnacle of the Land of the Dead (in China), and a multitude of absolutely wonderful friends through school, work, and- lo and behold- the internet.But she still wouldn't mind meeting you.View All Friends | View Blog | Add Comment
