    (Basically copy-pasted from my About You on my profile page.)

    Mmm...

    My name is Adams Trinh, and I'm a 21-year old UCSD student majoring in Human Biology and minoring in Education Studies. I'm Chinese (specifically Teochew), though I was actually born here in the U.S. Soo..

    Anyway. So I began playing (Global) MapleStory when I was in 5th grade. That'd be sometime between 2005 and 2006. I've lost my account since then of course, but I believe I lost interest in the game some time after I entered the 7th or 8th grade. Anyway, I briefly resumed MS in high school, but this was after the Big Bang patch, and a lot of things had changed. And I didn't like them. So I've been pretty busy with college, life, turning 21 (haha), etc. Years without anything have to do with MS.

    Just today (01/31/16), I was wondering about whether or not there was a MapleStory private server from the pre-Big Bang days. I have no idea where this came from, nor was there any reason for me to think of MapleStory out of the blue for absolutely no reason. But I did, I came here, and here I am.

    Well, anyway, I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone here better!

    It's probably useless information, but back on GMS, I had a level 46 Cleric named UchihaFan01 (yeah... *cough*). I still remember grinding at those mask things in Perion and wishing I could become a Priest some day to use Shining Ray. I hope to accomplish that goal now that I'm way older and, at least, more knowledgeable about how to be more efficient than grinding at one place for a week straight.

    Edit: A bit random, but this video really inspired me (at least before I quit) to try my best in MS and try to become a Priest. Reliving my childhood right now.
