My name is Edward Choi and I am the new
Teen Critic on CBC’s Homestretch Program. Growing up in a family of
insurmountable love, which consists of my parents, my brother, Philip and my
sister, Michelle, family has always been my highest priority. I am a grade 12
student attending Sir Winston Churchill High School who is convinced that you
can fit 30 hours into a 24 hour day. In these 30 hours, I enjoy spending my
time with friends, playing the piano, playing soccer, running, volunteering and
acting.
Pursuing the things which bring me happiness and learning how to share that
happiness with others is the passion of my life. This is why my future plans
consist of going to university and hopefully coming out as a doctor. After
becoming a doctor, I will be a frequent Calgary Flames season ticket holder and
continue to cheer for my favourite team. Because I will be on TV so often for
holding excellent tickets, a movie agent from Hollywood will notice me and
invite me to start an acting career. At this point in my life I will not only
be happily married to the best person in the world but I will also be the star
of the next Hollywood blockbuster. Of course, the likelihood of this to happen
is zero, BUT I can always be an optimist and wait for the day that I am the
luckiest person in the world…or maybe I already am.

Hi, my name is Tansie Kuang and I am one of the Teen Critics! I was born in
Canada, Calgary as the smallest member of my family of four. Within my family,
I have made my mark as the energetic, possibly nerdy, and almost always active
one. As a Grade 11 student attending Western Canada High School, I firmly
believe as important as education is, the more enjoyable parts of life of a
student comes from the world outside. So one concept that I always follow is
just to throw yourself into society and learn what you can. Some things that I
enjoy doing are singing in a choir, hanging out with friends, reading books,
volunteering, and playing badminton.
As a child I always looked up to those who were more inclined towards business.
How they can just waltz into a situation and suddenly make it into their own.
This is a goal that I am working towards and hopefully several things will help
me attain it. With university just practically around the bend, I have to
confess I am scared silly. However if I do get into my university of choice and
is able to study in my desired business program, MBA, then I hope to come out
of it as a business woman with the whole package of successful negotiator among
other things under my belt. I am always ready to learn and take life in
full strides but as of now, I wish nothing else other than to enjoy my
childhood before my final graduation year.
