Past, Present, and Future

        My name is Kevin Truong and I was born in January 23, 1996. Since I am only 18 years-old, I do not have much of a past to share. I lived in Oxnard all of my life, but I have been out of the state and country because my parents love to travel. Like most kids, I spent a lot of my time in school and in my room. If I was not in class, I liked to be sleeping in my bed until an annoyed mother pulled away the covers. That habit started to die away once I enrolled in high school at Channel Islands. I joined the tennis team there and stayed for 3 years, 2 of those years in varsity. It was here where I met my awesome group friends that stuck I with until this very day. Sadly, all good things come to an end and high school was over and one summer vacation later I am sitting in a college class.
        Currently I am enrolled in classes at Oxnard College for my first year ever. The transition from one school to another always make me feel a little anxious because I do not know my surroundings. I came here to continue my education and save money to eventually transfer to a four year university. When I am not in class I like spend time on my hobbies. My hobbies are playing video games, selling things, and finding ways to earn money. These hobbies are now reserved for the weekend and school gets the other 5 days.
        Once I complete what I need to do at Oxnard College, I see myself at Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo working to earn a bachelors degree in computer science. After school is all said and done, Google would be my preferred company to work for. When I finally get settled in my future job, I would then think about having a family and the rest of my story will make itself as it happens.

  2. College is not as bad as we all think it might be. We all get nervous when we are new, but you will get used to it.

  3. The transition from high school does seem a bit strange. It appears intimidating but it's not as hard as it looks.

  4. I understand the struggle of waking up in the morning, I have the same problem. I see myself at San Luis Obispo as well, hopefully we will both attend SLO.
