    For those of you who don't know me, and this could be the people on the Bip Report who don't actually know me, or people stopping by at my page, this is all about me.
    First things first.  How did I get the nickname "Bip."  Well, I figure if I tell the story here, I should never have to tell the stupid story again.  I hate this story, just because it is so plain.  But here it is anyway.  Back in 7th grade, I had a teacher Mr. Holbrook, The Weenie.  I had Holbrook for Social Studies, and during one of the classes, I was answering a question, but I stuttered on the answer.  He started saying, "Hey!  Badip bip bip!  What's the matter?  Can't say the words?"  Everyone in the class had a good laugh.  Then they decided it would be funny if they kept on calling me that afterwards.  So they did.  Six years later, they still do.
    Now it's time for my life story.  I was born in Hawaii, Kapiolani Medical Center, 4:30 PM on September 19,1980.  I live in the house that my great grandpa lived in, located in Kaimuki.  There I lived until I was 8.  When I was 8, our family moved to South Korea, because my Dad works for the government.  We got to Korea in the summer of '88 before the Olympics.  I went to school there at Seoul American Elementary School (SAES) from 3-6 grade.  In Korea, I met people like Derrick Abe, JJ, and Michelle Toyofuku, who ended up in Hawaii for high school with me (except Michelle went to the Mang school).
    In 1992, I moved back to Hawaii, and went to Punahou School from 7th grade until Graduation in 1998.  During high school, I was on the Punahou Wrestling Team.  In Senior year, I was Captain, and took 5th in States.  Yay me!  Wrestling did a number of things for me.  Cutting weight for wrestling have me and extreme love of food.  With that, I started baking.  Hmm, I realize I don't have anything really spectacular to say about me and high school.  Oh well.
    I am now a Freshmen at UC Berkeley.  Go Bears!  I am undeclared, but I think I may want to Major in Economics and Minor in English.  Maybe try to get to Haas Business School in Junior Year.
    You can pretty much tell my personality from reading the Bip Report, and from looking at the things I like.  Besides, I just tried writing my personal description, and it just makes me look like a bastard.  So I won't do that until I can make myself look nice.
