I'm Vivin. I like computers, reading, latin dancing, singing, playing the piano, and playing the guitar. I'm a software engineer, computer scientist, and Tillman Scholar. I served in the Arizona Army National Guard for 9 years (from 2000 to 2009) and did a year-long tour in Iraq (2005-2006) in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom. I am currently pursuing a PhD in Computer Science. I like Star Trek, and I'm not ashamed to admit it.

Goodbye, my sweet girl. When you left, I felt like I lost a piece of my soul. I remembered the first time I saw you at the pound, standing on your hind legs, tail wagging furiously. I remembered the times we would sit on my futon watching TV together, and how you’d look at me groggily and slightly annoyed, when I woke you up to carry you to your dog bed. You were there to say goodbye to me when I left on my deployment and there when I came back. And though you ended up with my sister, you belonged to both of us. You were always there and for so long, that I wasn’t prepared to even imagine a world without you. You were a good dog, sweet Honey, and a lady. I love you and miss you so much.

Sunrise at Pounder’s Beach in Laie, Hawaii. Unfortunately it was kind of cloudy, and we couldn’t see the sun, but we still got a very nice light show. 🌅 #hawaii #vacation #beach #travel #sunrise #nature #naturephotography #beachphotography #scenery #sceneryphotography #landscape #landscapephotography #amateurphotographer #amateurphotography #photographer #photography #pixel2xlphotography #poundersbeach #beaches #beachphoto #mobilephotographer #mobilephotography

Took this picture on Pounders Beach at sunrise. Had a wallpaper like this many years ago and I wanted to recreate that shot (the original is way better than my amateur attempt). #hawaii #sunrise #poundersbeach #goldenhour #naturephotography #beach #beachphotography #amateurphotography #amateurphotographer #photographer #photography #pixel2xlphotography #mobilephotographer #mobilephotography
