| − | ==Origin of Name==
| |
| − | This is actually one of my game names. It comes from "that's mumu." However, I did not want to name myself "thatsmumu," so I gave myself the last name "Daz" because it sounds like "that's" (?)
| |
| − | If I am playing a shooting game like CS:GO or a public/cooperative game, I will use the name "caxkr" instead. This is also my steam account ID!
| |
| − | Nowadays, I almost never plays games that will require public cooperation because they are kind of toxic.

| − | I LOVE Undertale by Toby Fox and Deltarune and have completed Chapters 1 and 2 of Deltarune. I cannot wait for the other chapters to come out. I also play Dead Cells, Hades, Cuphead, and Oxygen Not Included. My mac can fortunately (only) run these games and I connect my PS4 wireless controller to my mac when playing these. Dead Cells and Hades are both roguelites and I really like them. I have around 30 games in my steam account, but I do not really have time to play them all these days because college life is busy and my mac cannot run half of the games.

| − | My FAVORITE FAVORITE game is The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. I have hundreds of hours in the game on my brother's Switch, and I can't wait for Breath of the Wild 2 to come out this year! I just bought my own switch a week ago and I am super hyped for summer vacation to come so I can play.

| − | ==Academics==
| |
| − | I have no idea what I want to major in, but I am interested in ECE + Chemistry! I am taking organic chemistry this semester and I am blown away by how interesting it is. I wish there was a Chemical Engineering major at Duke.

| − | ==Reading==
| |
| − | I love reading, especially books that are part of the classical genre. I currently have more than 40 physical books in my room that I have bought over the course of last semester, and I have 20+ online/kindle books as well. I have finished about 22 books since August 2021 and my goal is to read another 50 books in 2022.
| |
| − | Some of my favorite books include
| |
| − | * ''The Master and Margarita'' by Mikhail Bulgakov
| |
| − | * ''A Clockwork Orange'' by Anthony Burgess
| |
| − | * ''The Decameron'' by Giovanni Boccaccio (1300s Italian literature)
| |
| − | The first two books have a heavy emphasis on the duality of good and evil and the importance of free will, whereas the third book is simply hilarious. It contains 100 "short" stories and it was an absolute joy reading those. I bought ''The Canterbury Tales'' by Chaucer in hopes that it will be similar to ''The Decameron'' but I have not started it yet. I am currently reading ''Dracula,'' ''Lolita,'' and listening to the audiobook ''Skeleton Crew.'' I will finish all three by mid-February hopefully.

| − | I just finished reading ''The Iliad,'' and the book has inspired me to buy classical/ancient works (wayyyyyy before the 1900s/1800s) such as ''Metamorphoses'' by Ovid. I have always heard of the influence of ''Metamorphoses'' on many literary works and I cannot wait to actually read the book. I bought the book recently though, and I read my books in order of the time they arrive, so it is around 20 books away :/
