This 12-Year-Old in California Just Graduated From College With Five Degrees
12-year-old Clovis Hung became the youngest individual ever to earn five degrees from Fullerton College in California this past weekend.
Hung, who was just 9-years-old when he enrolled in the college, graduated with five Associate of Arts degrees in History, Social Sciences, Social Behavior and Self-Development, Arts and Human Expression, and Science and Mathematics.
“I feel proud of myself. Hard work has finally paid off,” Hung said in a statement released by Fullerton College.
His first class at the school came in 2020, a class on world civilizations.
Hung told the school’s publication, “After that first history class, I found out I could handle it well and instantly fell in love with college life. So, I challenged myself to take more classes.”
His future plans include taking more STEM-related courses at the college until he’s ready to apply to four-year universities while also working towards obtaining his pilot license which he aims to achieve by age 16.
Punch has gone viral again after older monkeys comforted him following an accidental fall into a pond at the zoo.
Caretakers later confirmed that he had fully recovered, eating well, playing with peers, and running around energetically as if nothing had happened.
Back in 2016, Park Geon Roung was one of the child actors who starred in the Baby Shark Dance video, which went on to become the most viewed YouTube video of all time.
He was just a kid then, and now at 17, he is showing the world just how beautifully time flies.
Geon Roung never stepped away from the spotlight. Since 2019, he has been part of Play With Me Club, a South Korean co-ed kids group, keeping his place in showbiz.
Fans who rediscovered him recently were stunned, with many saying he now looks just like a K-pop idol.
The ‘Baby Shark’ video was uploaded to YouTube in June 2016 by Pinkfong, a South Korean education brand.
It quickly became a staple in nursery schools and a go-to distraction for parents of toddlers worldwide, turning into one of the most recognizable children’s songs of its generation.
For many who grew up watching that video on repeat, seeing Geon Roung at 17 is a quiet reminder of how fast kids grow up.
One day they are dancing to baby shark, and before you know it, they are teenagers the internet is falling in love with.
BLACKPINK’s Lisa is going viral after visiting Punch, the baby Japanese macaque at Ichikawa City Zoo in Japan.
She posted the moment on her Instagram Story, showing full love to the beloved viral monkey. The photos spread across social media almost immediately.
What made the visit even more special was what Lisa brought with her.
She carried an orangutan plush toy identical to the one Punch is famous for clutching, the same toy that once comforted a baby monkey rejected by his mother and turned him into a global sensation.
