...usually found that in the beginning I am always into academics, but I just can't sustain it. And that's why I like music, because I can always sustain interest. Most of the other stuff I do is music....Both my roommates are writing compositions too and it's cool because we hang out and listen to operas and read through fugues together. One of my roommates is doing a composition thesis and he made the answering machine message based on a tone row in his thesis with a combination of the 12 notes of the scale...
...family and maintain the relationships with all the friends I have met here. And contribute positively...I want to spend some part of my life in Asia as a learning experience, and eventually, possibly on the East Coast. I had never been here before Harvard, and I think I like it here a lot. Really, it's family and friendship for me. And having a goal and working towards it. Not necessarily a career goal. It could be a family perspective...
...like to be writing music definitely, but you can't really make much of a living that way. Maybe I'll be teaching somewhere or teaching a youth orchestra somewhere.

I would want to live in some city with interesting musical stuff going on...New York, Chicago...somewhere in Europe...
...changed a lot. With big capital letters. When I came to Harvard, I was very young. I had never dated anyone in high school and I didn't kiss anyone until I came to college. Like all the people who did their homework in high school, I didn't have a social circle in my immediate environment....As cliched as it may sound, I think I have really come into my own here and do what I am interested in. People do something here because they like it. Like, 'I really enjoy this.' I did opera when I came...
...King School with a lot of hard-ass eighth-graders. But I also taught a sweet, silent girl the violin at the Tobin School. Those programs definitely helped in that I can relate with a lot of different kinds of people. I am one of those people who like to sit on a bench and watch people go by. I love the people at PBHA. They are the kindest, most sincere people on campus. At least you're praying they'd better be loving it--most of them spend 30 hours a week at the place...
