About Me
So, you want to know about me, huh? Well, since you're here, you are obviously bored and have
nothing better to do. So, I will now bore you with my life story...or...maybe not.
Keep in mind that I do not update this page very often, so the information found here is more
often than not out of date.

majors in sophomore year.)
- Random Fact #1
- I consider myself to be an anachronism (defined by
Wiktionary as A person or thing which seems to belong to a different time). Evidence of this
includes the fact that I sometimes like to listen to old music and have a passion for nostalgia
outside of my own lifespan (e.g. I love cartoons from the 1930s through 1950s).
- Random Fact #2
- When I was a senior in high school, I took the AP Comparative Government test from the College
Board and I received the highest score in the state of Hawaii! (Well, actually, I was the *only* student
in the state of Hawaii who took the test, but who needs details?)
- Random Fact #3
- My sister used to play golf for HPU and she was a freshman
sensation. (After HPU cancelled its golf program, she made her way to UH. I hope she tries out for
the golf team.)
