I believe that anyone who contributes to freedom and the human rights movement, such as Mahatma Gandhi, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, Nelson Mandela are heroes. I also consider Actor Steve McQueen, Lee Marvin, and Audie Murphy because they kicked ass during their time period. Most importantly, however, I also consider my parents as my heroes.

About me:
My name is Ko Wei (pronounced Kur Wai), which is a funny foreign name my dad gave me. It has a symbolic meaning like many other Chinese names. Most of my friends call me Chen (my last name), Kevin, or Kev. I was born on the 14th of July, which is Bastille Day (France Independence Day), in the island of Formosa (AKA Taiwan). I am an ex-Army ROTC cadet at Fordham University from Fall of 2001 to Spring of 2003. I love jogging, cycling, photography, and writing. I don't believe in doing something unless it is going to be done with passion. I want to do something that is going to make me happy and proud. I want to be the most unconventional Asian out there. Besides being liberal minded and a future Democrat, I think one fourth of my heart belongs to the Army. I am pretty grounded and I will try my best every time. In a way, I think the Army is just a doorway for an adventurous life for me. I wish to complete Army's Airborne, Air Assault, Freefall/HALO, and Scuba courses in the future. I would also like to attend Army Ranger and Special Forces School someday. Yes, I am afraid to admit that I am a procrastinator like many others. Depending on the situation, it may be a good thing or a bad thing. If the Army and Ranger things doesn't work out, I guess I will go back to school and get a degree in physician assistant with 3 more years of schooling. Lets see what happen after 2008 when I finally done with my degree.Who I'd like to meet:
Good question. I've asked myself this question a few times before. I would like to meet someone who will sit down with me and have a good conversation. I would also like to meet different music lovers. I think everybody has a soundtrack of their lives and I am hoping to make a soundtrack of my life someday.Details
