Hobbies
My hobbies include music, as I played the violin starting in elementary school and more recently joined an A Capella chorus for the duration of college. I spend most of my free time reading mainly history and science fiction texts, and occasionally watching TV. I also enjoy jigsaw puzzles and other similarly mentally challenging games and activities. While my academic interests lie in East Asian history and society as well as language acquisition, I have always been interested in sciences, especially natural and environmental sciences.
