Tim Shallahamer said that he knows that Taiwan is a debatable
                   place, where it with China’s relationship. While others called me
                   Japanese. He and I were watching October Sky and doing hardness

                   test on minerals in the science class. He was also excited about the
                   movie, Star Wars II, by Yoda’s moves.
                   Angela wanted me to sing a song to her, I sang two tigers, the kids’
                   chant, because Chinese popular was not popular at the time. It
                   became popular after Jay Chou, Jolin Tsai, and Leeholm Wang…etc.
                   My cousins from Ohio came back to Taiwan to buy some CDs of
                   Chinese popular. When I first heard Jay Chou’s songs, I could not

                   understand and wondered questioned whether my Chinese level had
                   been degraded.
                   Back in Ohio, many people joked about Chinese kungfu, with a song
                   – Everybody goes to Kungfu fighting, later becoming Kung-fu
                   Panda’s theme song. I did not know Kung-fu, what I knew was
                   Taekwondo. And finger jabs on eyes. So Neji’s finger jabs, and

                   Bang’s are from there. Rock Lee’s Leaf hurricane was from round
                   house kick.
                   Michael did wrestling, he got bandaged on his forehead, and Adam
                   did Boxing.
                   Ping-pong, My cousin Jason Wang, a player who does video games,
                   tennis, ping-pong, Piano and guitar and Soccer; he created 2 clubs in
                   high school; one of them was ping-pong club. He invited me and Yu

                   Hung or Bill to join. Later Bill Yu-Hung got a first place in a
                   tournament it hosted, and went onto a newspaper. Me did not get
                   into top 3. I then won a Kimpton MS hosted ping-pong tournament, I
                   then won the first place in that. My classmates got impressed,
                   clapped and cheered in the end. I did a side-spin serve in ping-pong.
                   Jason Wang merges tennis into ping-pong to attack on many places

                   on the table, I mean only slice can possibly work, but he can also
                   slice back.
                   9th Grade
                   The first person I had met was in an English exam, named Jackson
                   Wang, who was a genius later taking many AP classes in University
                   High school, and went to Cal-tech as a Mechanical Engineering
                   major. As the one only who cared about my shoulder wound in

                   college. He likes playing piano and listening to Cantonese songs. He
                   then commited suicide the day before his college graduation, maybe
                   because he did not want to go to graduate school demanded by his
                   parents.
