There's a lot of people I'm proud of. Only a couple of the many:

My younger brother. He's a bit unique compared to his friends; 6-foot-tall, half-Filipino, half-black; learning Korean, Japanese, and Tagalog; usually has some whacky hair style. He's very shy. This year, in High School, he and some of his friends learned a version of the Soranbushi dance from a Japanese dance teacher. They performed in front of their school, before hundreds of people at a festival in San Francisco, at a city hall on LIVE television, and various other locations. I'm glad he's taking advantage of his HS years.

My best friend and his family. My best friend's family has always treated me like family. I'm really grateful to them for making such an effort to make me comfortable, even though I never expect it of them. His parents are professional poker players, and have played with various Hollywood celebrities, and have been on TV, participating in high-stakes poker tournaments. They're nice people. I didn't realize how popular they were on the Poker stage until recently. It's good knowing they are being recognized by others.
