Family

My family name, Foong, can be said to be a rare surname in Sinapore. For my father's side, we originated from China, settled in Malaysia before my father became a Singaporean citizen.

I have relatives in the United States too. My grandfather's brother migrated to the United States, and currently resides in New Jersey. Also, I have an aunt who resides in New York City.

Immediate Family

We are very closely bonded, and I am fortunate to have such a family. In total we have 4 members, and until my brother went overseas to study, we stayed together as a unit.

Dad

He takes care of my family's everyday needs, such as shopping and home maintainance. Due to his engineering background, he has quite good hands with tools and gadgets. Food, music, soccer and motorsport (on TV that is) are his interests.

Mom

My mom works as a manager in KPMG. A little more conservative in mindset than my father, but still a very loving mom. She was a liberian which explains her affinity to the nearby library. Likes to read, eat and sleep.

Jason

He is my elder brother. Currently he is studying in Claremont McKenna, and majoring in Philosophy and History. Interests include food (like my parents), reading, cars and photography.

Julie

She is my younger sister. Right now she is attending school at Singapore Chinese Girls' School, which is near my home. Quite an active person and likes to dance and practice Chinese Martial Arts.

Aunt Vera

Works in a private bank, and lives in an apartment a few floors below my home. A huge source of information and latest happenings in my family.

Grandfather

Foong Tuen Seng, lived through WWII and migrated to Singapore prior to Singapore's independence. Right now he is enjoying his golden years with Aunt Vera.
