KEVIN ZHU

 

Kevin Zhu's Profile
Birth Date: May 12, 1994 (13 years old)

Lives: Warden and Hwy 7

Hobbies: Card Collecting, Playing Piano, Video games, outdoor games

Favourite Subjects: Science, Art, French, Music, Gym

Progress in Piano:  I am preparing for my ARCT exam in the summer 2009 and Harmony 4 exam in winter 2007. I have taken Piano exams including Grade 5 (81%), Grade 8 (85%), Grade 9 (82%), and Grade 10 (85%) exams over 4 years. I have also finished my theory requirements in 2 years including: preliminary rudiments (93%), Grade 2 Rudiments (96.5%), Harmony 3 (87%) and History 3 (now History 1) (100%).

Progress in School:  Tidiness is my specialty. I keep my locker spotless everyday. Every subject isn’t very stressful or awfully difficult for me. I always get my homework done on time and projects handed in to amaze. My journals, lab reports and French presentations all bring me 4+’s. I try hard in everything and I always try to exceed everyone else in projects.

Free Time and Misc:  I spend my free time with my buds playing Halo 3, other video games, cards, and outdoor sports at each other’s house and in the park. I like to sketch out pictures when I feel sad and watch TV when there’s nothing else to do. I do one set of Gauss exams every week to sharpen my math skills and 8 laps around the Unionville High School track for exercise twice per week.

Future:  I plan to be a vet, computer engineer, or an architect when I grow up
