HOBBIES

She wakes up early for her Aerosports sessions and rides on a rented bicycle and plays tennis in the afternoon. She plays Jazz piano and loves Scott Joplin's Ragtime Piano Pieces.
"I want to try on new hobbies such as sculpting dolls and pendants using Sculpey clay, make plushies and painting. My parents are willing to pay if I painted a garden image really good on our blank wall in the garage. As for the sculpted dolls, pendants and plushies, I'll sell them."

REWIND
She considers earning money as one of her hobbies. She started it in highschool when she started selling Mentos candies to her classmates. "It is very important in business that you work on what you want.", Carina said. Being highschool student back then, she wants candies in her pocket all the time. "I hated it when people demands to give them one when I bought the candy by myself. So, I sold candies to them. They found it amusing. I don't care. I just want what's rightfully mine. And I don't share."

BUSINESS
While she is a parttime tutor at times, her business also involves doing homeworks and papers. "Ignorance and stupidity are my fears." Further questions regarding this topic were refused to be answered because of its strict confidentiality. "My clients trust me, so I will do so in return. I respect my clients. Any reason they may have in availing of my services is outside of business relationship."

MONEY
"I fell in love with money and I admit that my life almost revolve around it." She uses it when she wants to taste the food and drinks on newly-opened restaurants.She likes to watch movies that were shown week after week. She needs it to pay for her rented tennis court for games and bowling alleys. She likes going to Timezone and play DrumMania, Percussion Master and Dance Revolution. She also likes to travel and see places. Like any other girl, she likes shopping. "I am proud to say that I don't ask extra money from my parents."

FUTURE
Her current undergraduate course is not related to business. When asked regarding to her REAL career in the future, she said, "I will be the Supreme ruler of the universe. I am the next Evil OverLord for I am the love child of Alexander the Great and whoever his boyfriend is."

"The last thing I am going to do is set myself up for failure by setting some absurdly unattainable goal for myself and then publicly announcing it to a bunch of strangers on the internet."
