My name is Stephen “tpen” Tabaquin; you might know me from Youtube as the guy who taught you how to drive a manual, but I happen to know just a LITTLE more than meets the eye. I am a 21 year-old UCLA graduate who yearns to get into medical school, and is finally doing something about it. Originally, I am from Orange County, CA (North OC, not “everyone’s favorite teenage soap” South OC). I love to teach knowledge to anyone who is willing to keep an open mind, so ask away!

Currently, I live in a suburb of Seattle, WA.

This blog’s purpose is to emulate the thought processes of the TPEN mind (my mind) at work, so that the world might INDEED become a better place. I don’t claim to have the answer to everything, but hopefully I’ll find RELEVANT answers to RELEVANT questions. So get ready world, TPENOLOGY is going to be EPIC!

Actually, the only reason I started this blog was because I had trouble waking up early, and I needed something to get me up in the morning (like a blog post). Oh yeah, and Quang talked about Lent and not wasting time, so here I am! Enjoy!

P.S> Laugh, Live, Love!

Note: I love tutoring people, so if you know anyone in the Seattle area who wants to be tutored in Math (Basic Math up to Calculus/Differential Equations/College Level), High School Chemistry/Biology, shoot me an e-mail!

(for some reason, college professors write their e-mails like this, still puzzles me)

P.P.S. If any of you noticed, there’s a pop-up MORE menu in the lower right hand corner. Surprisingly, it only works when you’re on blog posts, otherwise it just gets stuck when you’re on pages like this one, and the Photos page. Hopefully I’ll figure out what’s wrong, but until then, just look at all the pretty colors!
