I currently have an orange belt in the Japanese martial art Judo ("the gentle way"). I began my journey in 2019 during university and loved every second of it! Unfortunately my dojo is currently closed due to the pandemic, but I can't wait to go back!
I love building models of all types. My favorite pieces to make are ships, since they are a bit more complex and intricate. Over the years, I've taken on more challenging projects.
I've moved around a lot during my life. I've had the chance to live in 3 U.S. states (New York, Nevada and California) and 3 countries (Pakistan, Korea and China). Additionally, I've visited many more states and countries! Due to my background, I absolutely love learning about new cultures and languages. My ideal future world would be one where a language barrier is not in the way of connecting with another human.
I grew up with Sony and Nintendo consoles. I love third person games which focus on story and gameplay. I also love puzzle solving or strategy games. I am a HUGE fan of Naughty Dog and Hideo Kojima. A few of my favorite series are: The Last of Us, Tomb Raider, Metal Gear Solid and Jak and Daxter. These days, I'm playing Nier: Automata and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild!
My twin brother and I share a 1996 Integra. The hobby first started out of necessity since it's our only means of transport, but it soon became something we were both passionate about! Recently my brother and I rebuilt the distributor and completed a brake fluid flush.
Some of my favorite childhood anime include: Pokemon, Naruto and Hamtaro. I got back into watching anime in high school after discovering my passion for learning about new cultures and languages. A few of my favorites are: Black Lagoon, Steins Gate and Asobi Asobase.
These days, the manga I'm reading are Horimiya and Kakegurui Midari.
A few of my favorite Kdramas are Coffee Prince and Oh My Ghostess. I really gained interest in Kdramas after my study abroad program.
I used to think cooking was a necessary evil. But as time has gone by I've started to appreciate it more and make more complex dishes.
Ever since my Judo class went on hiatus, I started working out at home. More specifically: jumping rope on my patio and calisthenics.
