  4. Hi my name is Philip Dinh I am from San Jose. I don't read allot of books in my free time. Most of the reading I do is from reading English subtitles from Korean dramas and anime. If I am reading a book it is probably because I am reading it for a class, and not for fun. I like to watch the Food Network. I am working to become a nurse.

    Hi guys! My name is My. I was born in Hong Kong, but quickly immigrated here when I was 5. My parents were both refugees from Vietnam. I'm feel very lucky to have landed where I have. I have been able to really relate to many of issues that have been brought up in class. The discuss we have had, has been able to manifested itself in other areas in my life and I hope to continue these discussion long after the commencement of this class.
