- Boarding school makes you grow independently
- Less parental control makes you a procrastinator, perfect for art school!
- Getting bad grades makes you realize you're not as awesome as you were in middle school, leaving your competitive self often depressed
- Starting swimming makes you gain social and teamwork skills, and ultimately discipline routine in life.
- Mechanical orientation makes you awesome in robotics.
- 4 life-developers: school, sports, robotics, and piano
- Of the 7 colleges you were accepted to, you choose the one college that wasn't an engineering school: the Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.
- You are now Jonny Pang, an engineer stuck in art school. Whatever you do in life, it will have to be something that doesn't get old, constantly upgrading throughout life.

Recap
2005-2009 Middle School
- You are good at a lot of things:
- Sports (4th fastest cross country runner in school, state-level swimmer 2013)
- Robotics (#1 ranked team in Michigan 2013)
- Arts (A- or better in Weaving, Acting, Drawing, and Sculpture)
- Piano (accompanied 8 musicians on top of everything)
- But you are never the best at any one thing:
- Sports (did not place in state-level swimming)
- Robotics (did not place in world championships)
- Arts (did not place in Scholastic competition)
- Piano (not active in any high school music association)
- Despite the disappointment due to high competitiveness, you accept that you'd rather not be committed to only one thing in life.
At this point you are:
- Helping handyman dad
- Shy
- Getting a lot of alone time
- Playing video games
- In advanced math
- Building an ego
- Getting good grades
- Still practicing piano
Which makes you:
-> mechanical
-> not popular and get alone time.
-> have time for piano and video games
-> adventurous and competitive
-> build an ego
-> competitive
-> build an even bigger ego
-> alone
Swimming and Robotics
- Bad combination. Do it to be Jonny Pang though.
- 20+ hours a week of swimming and 8+ hours a week of robotics puts you in time crunch during winter
- Your superior 3-dimensional awareness and mechcnical capabilities puts you at the top of the school's robotics program, attending world championships 3 times in a row.
- Your robotics skills also makes you president and builds your team-leading abilities.
- You apply for several engineering schools as a result.
School and Piano
- Cranbrook's brutal academics further develops both your discipline and rebelliousness to academia. In the beginning, you hated only history and english. At graduation you hate almost everything. You realize you want to do something in life, not study forever. This is why you take many art classes.
- Piano is no longer a burden on you. You've stopped lessons, but cherish your ability to play. As a result, you make life more stressful by accompanying musicians for their solo performances. This, on top of swimming and robotics, means you like making things complicated.
