1.What’s your Ethnicity?
Vietnamese.
2.What’s your zodiac sign?
Scorpio, baby!
3.Where are you from originally?
I was born in Canada and moved around a lot. I lived in a little town call Prince Rupert for about 5 years before moving to Vancouver, B.C., where I stayed for another 7 years.
4.What did you like most about growing up in the Vancouver, B.C.?
The best part of growing up in Vancouver would be the summers there. I loved hanging out with my friends by the beach or having a barbeque at the lake or at their house. Vancouver is a very relaxed city and when summer comes around you just want to hang out with your friends and enjoy the moment together.
5.What kind of mischief did you get into growing up?
[laugh] My parents were extremely strict on me when I was younger. My curfew was 6pm! I know…brutal. I rebelled against them when I was about 16 to break the chains. I partied like any teen would and stayed out past 6pm. Yeah…I was bad ass [laugh]. One time I came home 30 minutes late. My mom had thrown my whole room onto the front yard! I grabbed the first garbage bag I saw with clothes in it and left. This was in winter time, okay…and the bag I grabbed were all my summer clothes. I went to school the next day rocking a skirt and t-shirt [laugh].
6.What’s the craziest thing you’ve ever done?
I can never answer this question; I don’t keep track of what would be my craziest thing! I am a really outgoing and spontaneous person! I love adventures and anything that means doing something out of the ordinary. Truthfully, my life is crazy and everyday it’s something crazy. If you ever get the chance to meet me, you’ll know. [laugh]
7.What’s your favorite hobby and why?
I love drawing, painting, sewing, cooking and anything that is creative. I have a huge imagination and love to be creative and colorful with any type of projects. It doesn’t even feel like a hobby to me…it’s more like a lifestyle.
8.What’s your guilty pleasure?
My guilty pleasure would have to be eating. I love many types of food, but my favorite is pizza. I could have pizza every day for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I know it’s pretty bad so I try to hold back, but my willpower for this bad boy is next to nothing.
9.Who do you admire?
I don’t really admire or look up to anybody besides my parents. I use to be on really bad terms with them as I was growing up, but as I grew up, I realized that they went through hell a thousand times to help me be who I am today. Because of them I am able to do what I love. They may annoy me with their nagging here and there, but now I’ve learned to love them more for that. I admire the struggles they went through to have a better life. They’re my heroes for life.
10.What’s one of your personal goals?
One of my biggest personal goals is to make enough money to take care of my parents and have them retire and then move them to Vietnam. I really want to build a house for them and make sure they will never have to work again.
11.What do guys compliment you on the most?
Oh my, this is a hard question. I don’t know…it’s either eyes, chest, butt or my legs [laugh]. Some guys also compliment me on my whole body in general, like my abs.
12.What’s your favorite body part on yourself?
I don’t have a favorite part of my body; I love them all equally and together they make me [smile].
13.What’s your least favorite body part on yourself?
It would probably be my shoulders. I’ve been told I have wide shoulders.
14.What do you look for in a guy?
Ambitions, determination, funny with a little sarcasm, relaxed, patient, fun and adventurous. I need a guy that can keep up with me and also someone I can laugh at and with about anything.
15.What’s the first thing you notice about a guy?
The first thing I notice about a guy is his eyes then his smile but I’m not shallow. I actually wait for the personality to come through before I decide what I think of him.
16.What’s your ideal first date?
I don’t really have an ideal first date. I am up for anything and I like to see what the guy can come up with. Even if it’s just hanging out in my room talking all night, that’s totally fine with me. If there is a good connection between two people, then it doesn’t really matter what they’re doing because anything is going to be a blast.
17.What turns you on?
Kisses on the neck always does the trick. A nice smile and a little stroke down my back will make me act like a cat in heat [wink].
18.What turns you off?
I can’t stand stinky breath! Yellow teeth or a cocky attitude, and I hate it when guys talk about how much money they spend and make; super turn off. I am not a materialistic girl.
19.What’s your biggest pet peeve?
When people use dishes and leave them in the sink. I am not a super clean freak at all, but I try to be. I also don’t like it when people don’t have any respect.
20.Who’s your celebrity pass?
Ryan Gosling and it’s not a pass…I want him [smile].
