What's the deal with your nickname? How did you get it? If your nickname is self-explanatory, then tell everyone when you first started using the internet, and what was the first thing that made you say "wow, this isn't just a place for freaks after all?" Was it a website? Was it an email from a long-lost friend? Go on, spill it.

Well like duh, my nick name is the same as my real name and close enough to my URL name. Not very unique now is it.

Min Jung is: A freak. A strange little Korean girl. A writer. A SurvivorBlog dork. An online humor columnist for www.iistix.com. An occasional poet. A dotcommunist. A born again virgin. A woman who likes wearing wine colored lipstick. A Catholic. A proponent of ant-foot fetishism. And a wanna be drummer chick.

My dad paid someone a bunch of money to change my name to Min Jung since it was luckier. I don't think it's working yet.

Woo.. first started using the internet in highschool around 1991 & 92 during math lab. Futzing around and I found it fun but I really got hooked back in the day with a little newsgroup called alt.religion.monica. It's dead now, that group, but it was a fun eclectic group while it lasted.
