CURRICULUM VITAE
Name as it appears on your birth certificate?

Siblings? None.
Number of candles that appeared on your last birthday
cake? I have never had a birthday cake.
Date that you regularly blow them out? I have never
had the opportunity to engage in this activity.
Pets? I have never kept a pet per se. I cared for
various Terran small mammals and amphibians as a study on
Vulcan. The closest I have ever come to keeping a pet was
in San Francisco. I was dealing with pneumonia, which is harder
on Vulcans than Terrans. A concerned colleague did lend me
his cat. I confess to having found her company very soothing.

my job in terms of love.
Birthplace? Vulcan.
Hometown? Vet'rel.
Current residence? Deck B, Enterprise.
College attended, degree? Vulcan Academy of Sciences.
I hold a primary degree (the equivalent of a Baccalaureate)
in Science, a primary degree in Criminal Justice, and a secondary
degree (the equivalent of a Master's) in Science.

any combustion-engine vehicles.

Croutons or bacon bits? Croutons.
Coke or Pepsi? Neither.
Sprite or 7UP? Neither.

Milk chocolate or dark? Dark chocolate, I have found,
helps me deal with the scent of Terrans who have refrained
from bathing.
Buttered, plain, or salted popcorn? Plain.
Red or white wine? Red.
Gold or silver? Terran females have said that gold
compliments my coloring.
Two or four doors? Shuttlepods have two.
Bridges or tunnels? Bridges; I have found that tunnels
are vaguely claustrophobic for me.
Beach, city, or country? The country.
Summer or winter? Summer. It more closely resembles
Vulcan's usual weather.
Storms: Cool or scary? Although I know of the danger
they may present, I do not find storms to be anything except
weather patterns.

James Dean or Clark Gable? I have yet to see a movie
with either of these people.
Marilyn Monroe or Audrey Hepburn? I have yet to
see a movie with either of these people.

cacophonous.

received a small blanket. I still have it. I am not quite
certain why I did not return it.
One pillow or two? One.
Adidas, Nike, or Reebok? Ensign Sato, would you
come here and translate these for me?
Mac, PC, or Unix? Vulcan operating systems are far
superior to Terran interfaces.
WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE...
Salad dressing? Vinaigrette.
Salad? Simple greens.
Pizza topping? The one time I ate pizza the toppings
consisted of a tomato-based sauce, cheeses, and sliced olives.
Foods? A traditional Vulcan dish which Chef can
prepare correctly. So far, this has yet to happen.
Sandwich filling? I have found hummus to be very
nutritious while still being common enough to avoid long explanations.
Dessert? Though Commander Tucker has taught me to
enjoy pecan pie, I prefer fruit tarts that have a lemon or
lime base. The tartness is much better for my sinuses, and
the flavor is much nicer...perhaps I am becoming more accustomed
to Terran tastes than I anticipated.
Type of ice cream? I have yet to find an ice cream
I enjoy eating.
Restaurant? The small Vulcan-styled bistro in Fisherman's
Wharf.
Fast food place? I am not familiar with this term.
Drink, non-alcoholic? Mint or chamomile tea.
Drink, alcoholic? Wine, although I rarely indulge.
Color of socks? I do not regularly wear socks.
Shampoo or conditioner? I use both; the type I use
is the standard Starfleet issue.
Toothpaste? I have plain mint, issued by Starfleet.
Place to be kissed? I have not been kissed in what
Terrans term "an affectionate manner." I have gotten
"pecks on the cheek."
Holiday? The Day of Kaiidth. It is a day set aside
for all Vulcans to consider that which is, and cannot be changed,
but must be accepted.
Color? Light blues and pale reds are reminiscent
of my home.
Car? I do not like cars. The smell of the combustion
engine is nearly overpowering.
Day of the week? I find Wednesdays to be very quiet.
Band/Artist? The Beatles are the only true "band"
I have taken the time to find I enjoy. Others, like Aryeh
Frankfurter and J. S. Bach, are much closer to the music of
my childhood.
Book? The Teachings of Surak
Magazine? Though I have not gotten a copy recently,
the Vulcan Poetry Anthology was one piece of work I always
found time to read.

Word or phrase? "Live long and prosper."
Flower? Roses and orchids are very...gratifying
to see bloom.
Sport to watch? Competitive spelling.
Zoo exhibit? I have yet to visit a zoo.

the linguistic term. Colloquially, I believe I would have

Website? The Vulcan Science Directorate, to stay
in touch with my colleagues.
