This is Me!

Name: Mona Chin

My Sign: Year of the Ox (Chinese Zodiac), Aquarius

Sports: Volley Ball, Tennis, Pingpong, Badminton, Air Hockey, Skiing (water and jet as well).

I am a U.C. Berkeley alumni. I have a degree in Molecular and Cell Biology (MCB),from the college of Letters and Science. As most of you have heard, Berkeley is a very "special" place.

I am now currently working at Bio-Rad Laboratories located in Hercules, California. I have been with Bio-Rad since July of 1997. The commute is against traffic but nevertheless, it's still hellish.

I live in the small and quiet city of Alameda, in an area called Bay Farm Island. Our claim to Fame is that we have our own zip code! Now, aren't you jealous?

A little about my family life. I am the middle child. I have an older brother and a younger sister. So I have the best of both worlds. Well, that's what you may think. Try being stuck in the middle for all your life! Despite our differences, we get along pretty well. Our policy is that if you don't tell on me, I won't tell on you. It has worked quite well thus far. As for parents, well, I don't see them much so it's bearable. My mom is a pretty good cook so I have nothing to complain about.

We have a pretty extensive family, just like any typical Asian family. I have dozens of little cousins.
