A girl unusually fascinated with people and culture, Denise Kang enjoys hearing the life stories of complete strangers. Not convinced that curiosity kills cats, this aspiring journalist and writer, hopes to be able to weave these life stories into a colourful book about humanity. Known to many of her friends as “the girl who can’t stop tweeting”, Denise spends an inordinate amount of time verbalising internal monologues on Twitter. A significant portion of her over 100,000 tweets are dedicated to this American Idol contestant whom she’s just a little too crazy over. A “glambert” (Adam Lambert fan) since 2009, she’s known to go to any lengths to get that little bit closer to her 6 feet tall idol. Aside from his music, Denise mainly indulges in all genres of rock. In her spare time, she could be sleeping in the strangest of places (like under the table) and tormenting those around her with her (usually) off-key renditions of her favourite songs.
