Who you are Matters

Describe where you come from

   Where I come from will always be Hong Kong, I may not share the same culture as the majority of the population but I will always consider it where I come from and where home is.

Tell me where you're going

   I honestly don't know where I'm going. I have a plan and an idea of where I would like to be and what I would like to do but I do not know where I'm going. I tend to believe that if I worry about today and the present the future will take care of itself. 

   "Yesterday is history, Tomorrow is a mystery, but Today is a gift." - Master Oogway

Tell me how you plan to get there

   For me, I'm a bigger fan of visualization and preparation than planning on how to get somewhere. I think being prepared and open to opportunities has helped me be successful more in life. I don't think following one original plan has enabled me to get where I am currently.

How are you LIKE your parents

  I'm alike my parents in our shared values, traditions, and sense of humor. I'm thankful I inherited my father's punctuality and not my mother's. 

How are you UNLIKE your parents

  I'm unlike my parents because of my upbringing. Unlike my parents, I grew up in a culture very different from my own and was exposed to a way of life that was vastly different from the one they knew growing up. 

Have you developed your own expectations for yourself, or if you were honest, would you say you're operating under someone else's expectations?

   If I were honest I would say that until recently I've been operating under someone else's expectations, however, I think more and more I am developing my own expectations for myself. Whether these expectations are truly my own or just expectations I've built off other's expectations I can't really say for certain.

Who, other than a relative, serves as a model for you of someone who lives life with great passion and personal responsibility?

   Sylvester Stallone is someone whose life story I admire. His ability to endure hardship and still maintain self-belief when no one was giving him a chance I find really inspiring. 

Connecting with the ANIMAL WORLD: What wild animal do you feel a special connection with, and why?

   I would say a tiger not in the classic sense that they are good hunters but because they are solitary and spend most of their day relaxing in the shade.

Connecting with the NATURE KINGDOMS: Describe a significant childhood encounter with a tree or plant.

   When I was nine I was visiting my grandparents in Arizona where I had my first and only encounter with jumping cacti. I was a little kid and curious and got too close and found out why how they got their namesake. To this day I'm weary of the plant.
