3. What is your favorite hobby?—Tennis, tennis, tennis!

4. Name one of your favorite movies—Lord of the Rings – can’t even remember how many times I’ve watched it – drives George nuts.

5. Name your favorite author, book or magazine—A fan of Agatha Christie, but nowadays don’t really have time to read :<

6. Name your best vacation location—A tennis resort with great food and tennis

7. Besides tennis, what else are you passionate about?—Between tennis, work, eat and sleep, don’t have much time left for anything :<

8. How long have you been playing this game of tennis?—I’ve been free-swinging the tennis racquet with George and family for awhile but didn’t really start to learn to play to win until my 2005 USTA league with the OP 3.5 ladies.

9. Name one of your favorite restaurants—I don’t really have one favorite restaurant. Most of my favorite and affordable restaurants are in the Sunset Area, SF. For example, there is Lotus at Noriega (I think it’s 22nd Ave) where they serve really good spicy beef noodles; a couple blocks away is Noriega Teriyaki where they have good sushi. Another one is San Tung at 10th Irving – they offer excellent spicy noodles and dishes.

10. What kind of food do you like best?—All kinds but spicy food ranks high up on the list.
