Hi everyone,
My name is Tina (not my biological name on paper) and I'm just an ordinary Vietnamese American living in Chicago, IL. I am into Japanese-inspired nerdy things, specifically anime and and video games.
As a young girl, I was introduced to the SNES at an arcade store in Vietnam and my life has changed ever since. Twenty years later, I am a proud owner of many consoles including a PSX-PS4, 360, Wii, and many more. I have recently beaten Tales of Zestiria and I'm currently replaying Final Fantasy X (for the 5th time....) :D
The introduction of Pokemon Go has taken over a part of my life recently... unfortunately. But can you blame me though? I owned Pokemon Red, Blue, Yellow, Gold, Silver, Crystal, Diamond, and Stadium 1 and 2 (on the N64) as a kid. The nostalgia is too strong to resist.
My interest in anime can be traced back to Sailor Moon back in the late 90's. Who doesn't love a skimpy-wearing school girl with magical power to save the world? My mom would treat my life everytime I watched anime for too long and claimed that I would grow out of it, but little did she know, she was dead wrong. Nowadays, I enjoy going to anime conventions. I love cosplaying and take every opportunity to do it.
But enough about my hobbies, I also have some smart in me too.... I think??
Due to the fact that I'm Asian, my parents were strict on me (insert Asian joke/stereotype here) so of course I would have a degree in chemistry. I completed my master in chemistry back in 2015 and have worked as a professor and chemist ever since.
However, don't let my academic background fool you. Even though I am not a trained computer scientist or businessman, I am familiar with cryptocurrency and their applications. I have been trading the Behemoth Bitcoin, its current rival, Ethereum, and recently, Steem. I think Steem has great potential and is unique in its own way. Being able to write contents to express myself and getting rewarded for it is a deal I cannot pass.
I think that with my combined knowledge of chemistry, videogames, and cryptocoins, one day I can create a bioengineering company that produces biologically accurate pokemons and you can purchase them with Steem, Bitcoin, Ether... ( I will accept most types of cryptocoins). Finally, my dream to create Mewtwo and world domination will come true :D
