I got tagged by Free Money Finance to share five personal tidbits about myself.

1. A friend of mine invited me to his youth group when we were in seventh grade. We had fun playing games and hiding from our Sunday School teachers back then. Eventually my faith in Christ became real and it really started to grow once I went to college. I’m still at the same church after thirteen years. And my friend who invited me is still my friend and will be one of my groomsmen for my wedding.

2. I love eating and I love to try new foods (and I love experiencing new cultures). Some more interesting things eaten have been: dog, goose head, cactus, camel’s paw, scorpion, silkworm, rabbit.

3. One time I spent 38 hours riding a train from Shanghai to Dunhuang (West China). My friends and I brought a pack of Uno and taught the kids in our cabin how to play. We had bunkbeds to sleep in so it was comfortable, but for those that don’t get sleeper cabins, they have to sit for 38 hours. Ouch.

4. When I was a kid I loved playing with airplanes. My parents bought me gliders, balsa wood flyers, paper airplane books, and even a remote control airplane. I went on to study airplanes in college and got a degree in aerospace engineering. For those parents who want their kids to be “engi-nerds”, give them a lot of gadets to play with and take them to the Air & Space Museum.

5. Lastly, a few loves in my love: My fiancée who I dearly love and thank God for, enjoying a good cup of coffee, and reading books!
