I was born in Seoul,Republic of Korea and I grew up in the port city, Busan. I came to Austin, TX in August, 2003 and I am majoring in Physics. I love to learn languages,to plan events, to write letters, to do and learn any kind of sports, and to take pictures. I value my experiences in the U.S. and I feel blessed because I have met so many great people. Austin is a great city to work out. I have been to many nice places to exercise, yet , I have not been to a lot of places such as green belt area. I can't wait to train myself and mountain bike in green belt area with my friend!

Cancer is simply that JUST ONE CELL goes crazy and spread into all kinds of human body parts and mess up the system. It is quite scary that we have not found the way to stop it. I have seen my grandpa dying slowly of brain tumor. It was very painful to see him dying. I have a long-time friend from elementary school who developed bone marrow cancer when she was 10. She is still alive and we keep in touch. I would like to dedicate my ride to my grandpa and my friend Minjoung as well as so many people who is struggling with cancer at this moment.
