1. Aquariums
My dad grew up keeping fish and he passed the hobby onto me. We've had up to 5 tanks of various sizes in the house at one time. Kept everything from cichlids that bred like bunnies to turtles. All in SEPERATE tanks. Still made a lot of mistakes and had lots of disasters because there was no internet to find answers and the fish stores were far away from Moorpark. My dad had a friend who was a fish importer so he got hooked up all the time with cool fish. I never had a saltwater tank though. Started doing a planted tank with the little 12 gallon Eclipse in my apartment in LA.
2. Fast import cars
It all started with my first car, a 1979 RX-7 donated to me by my uncle. My friend, Erwin has an older brother who was into imports and we would read the magazines at his house. The import car craze was at the peak in the '90's when I started to drive. My dad grew up in the muscle car era and remembers fixing up his 'Cuda when he was my age so he supported my hobby. Hondas were the shizzy and most of us ended up with Hondas in college (except for Fields who had an Escort haha) and threw on every bolt-on part you can imagine. Now that we all have real incomes and bought real cars, we don't modify them much anymore.
3. Legal stuff
Not by choice. Didn't know what to do with myself after college so I went to law school. Biggest mistake of my life. Going to college and getting a degree in something you don't really care about is not the way to success in life. I blame my parents and guidance counselors for not broadening my career horizons. Apparently, there are lots of high paying jobs out there for people who don't have a brain.
4. Togepi
That's Rebecca's fault. I think it's actually Irene's fault.
5. Transformers
Grew up watching Transformers religiously. I LOVED the cartoons and LOVED the toys. Easily my favorite cartoon when I was a kid.
