Hi all,
My name is Tran and i'm new to yellow world. But I've been on the net since 1998. I've posted on some now defunct sites like A.online and still running vietchat and asianwired. And one article at IIstix as well as onetime reader of the month. I'm currently serving a year in exile in the state of NJ in support of Operation Noble Eagle. Prior to this I was the Volunteer Coordinator for an afterschool program in Boston's Chinatown and a part time soldier in the Mass National Guard.

I'm a 29 yr old Asian American adoptee originally from Vietnam. So I guess I'm old, or at least getting there. I came here when I was 11 months so I guess I'm sort of a Twinkee. because I grew up in the burbs, so I was the only Asian kid at school until junior high. I don't know any martial arts or asian languages. I have static lined parachuted and played the piano at one time or another though. I recently got rid of my 94 taurus and bought a 03 Protege5 in vivid yellow.
:dance: :nerd: :frown: <_< :lol:

Does that mean I'm entitled to a senior's discount at YW?

Hi Baby Sakura and everyone else :lol:
Yes, nei hoa is cantonese. I worked in Boston's Chinatown for two years prior to coming to NJ so I know more Cantonese then I do Vietnamese. Which isn't much actually :( Going home this weekend so I'll have more pics for the photo gallery. :lol:
