I am actually not a very “tech savvy” person, so it will be a bit difficult getting used to a online journal (which I’m pretty sure what a Blog is). I am a very private person and am thus a bit technophobic to a certain degree: a great icebreaker is when people ask why I put a post-it over the camera. For curious readers(?), viewers(?), passersby(?), it’s because of this article I read in the past: http://thelede.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/02/19/school-accused-of-using-webcam-to-photograph-student-at-home/ Sorry, I don’t trust you Baruch.

As you can tell, I am very cautious and practical. Growing up, television was absent in a good part of my childhood so I do believe that attributes to my slow uptake of technological innovations. I can’t really think of particular experiences but I believe my family and being raised as an Asian-American in general taught me many things such as patience and tolerance. I have a really close relationship with my mom, and have inherited her interest in statistics; I hope to learn more about it and the many statistical software like SAS in college. I honestly can’t wait until I can pack my schedule with only math classes… I don’t really have any specific expectations as every great expectation I had always ended in a grand disappointment and disaster so I just hope to do well in the first semester and start getting into the stat classes.
