Well, almost a year passes by and I finally decide to update "myself"--page! Horrible, eh? The picture to your right is my current picture as of December 2000. I was drinking water (see the transparent liquid there?) when the picture was taken. Certainly, this picture is not "my best". So I have decided that I am going to add an interesting "fact sheet" profile of myself on this "who am I?" page since I said I would around last year or so. Here goes. . . excuse me while I try to feel "comfortable" in creating and filling out a survey. ^_^

I am not drunk. I repeat I am not drunk.

Well, this is where I can write down how I feel whenever I want and express to those of you reading what I want you to understand about me and who I am. And then maybe from there, I can find who I am. That is not to say, I seek "myself" from others--despite that I have done so in the past. Yet nowadays, I stop others from answering my self-seeking questions in order to avoid from being compliant to some other person's image of me--and not my own image. I am who I am. Originally, I wanted to basically slap down some facts about me as well as put up a little fact sheet about my likes and dislikes in this world. But ask yourself this: "Would you knowing about my favorite shampoo help you learn about who I really am? Or just what I use to wash my hair?" So better yet, that is my intent on this page to show to you AND me who I am. Of course, I will slap down a fact sheet about myself to better illustrate me if that helps. Sincerely, John Khuu
