My full name is Kevin Nguyen and I am Vietnamese. I was born in Minnesota and lived there for around twelve or thirteen years before moving to Dallas. While there, I moved around quite a lot, switching schools almost every other year. After moving to the Dallas area, I stayed in one place for a long time, until eventually ending up at the University of Texas at Austin. I am a First-Year Undergraduate student studying Biochemistry in hopes of making it to Medical School. I like to sleep, watch TV shows, and play video games to pass time. I mainly play computer games. That’s basically who I am.

They don't follow the rules precisely whether it's the bible, Quran, or anything.
I chose the US Flag and Supreme Court Judges in order to represent universal-ism because the US population mainly consist of Universalist, following all the rules set by the government. The supreme court also supports this because they have to judge based off what the constitution and rules say.]]> 2017-02-17 03:34:26 UTC https://padlet.com/kevinnguyen216/nguyenugs303/wish/154512179 kevinnguyen216 https://padlet.com/kevinnguyen216/nguyenugs303/wish/154513581 2017-02-17 03:52:47 UTC https://padlet.com/kevinnguyen216/nguyenugs303/wish/154513581 kevinnguyen216 https://padlet.com/kevinnguyen216/nguyenugs303/wish/155955337 2017-02-24 04:47:46 UTC https://padlet.com/kevinnguyen216/nguyenugs303/wish/155955337 kevinnguyen216 https://padlet.com/kevinnguyen216/nguyenugs303/wish/155955345 2017-02-24 04:47:57 UTC https://padlet.com/kevinnguyen216/nguyenugs303/wish/155955345 kevinnguyen216 https://padlet.com/kevinnguyen216/nguyenugs303/wish/155955539 2017-02-24 04:52:28 UTC https://padlet.com/kevinnguyen216/nguyenugs303/wish/155955539 kevinnguyen216 https://padlet.com/kevinnguyen216/nguyenugs303/wish/155955729 2017-02-24 04:56:05 UTC https://padlet.com/kevinnguyen216/nguyenugs303/wish/155955729 kevinnguyen216 https://padlet.com/kevinnguyen216/nguyenugs303/wish/155955932 2017-02-24 04:59:40 UTC https://padlet.com/kevinnguyen216/nguyenugs303/wish/155955932 kevinnguyen216 https://padlet.com/kevinnguyen216/nguyenugs303/wish/156176632 2017-02-25 10:04:50 UTC https://padlet.com/kevinnguyen216/nguyenugs303/wish/156176632 kevinnguyen216 https://padlet.com/kevinnguyen216/nguyenugs303/wish/156923441 2017-03-01 04:33:18 UTC https://padlet.com/kevinnguyen216/nguyenugs303/wish/156923441 kevinnguyen216 https://padlet.com/kevinnguyen216/nguyenugs303/wish/156923453 2017-03-01 04:33:32 UTC https://padlet.com/kevinnguyen216/nguyenugs303/wish/156923453 kevinnguyen216 https://padlet.com/kevinnguyen216/nguyenugs303/wish/157200584 2017-03-01 23:15:41 UTC https://padlet.com/kevinnguyen216/nguyenugs303/wish/157200584 kevinnguyen216 https://padlet.com/kevinnguyen216/nguyenugs303/wish/157200619 2017-03-01 23:16:02 UTC https://padlet.com/kevinnguyen216/nguyenugs303/wish/157200619 kevinnguyen216 https://padlet.com/kevinnguyen216/nguyenugs303/wish/157201157 Pi is a good representation of specific because pi is the most specific number ever.

They keep their work and personal life separate. Customers are just in and out when they need help with a product or need to buy a product. Their private life stays private because it's a quick in and out process, where they only exchange information about the item.
