FACTS:
1. Sunny was in Kuwait when she was just a baby, around the time of the Gulf War, that is why she is afraid of loud explosions .

2. Sunny does not go to college but she did finish high school. Sunny says that its more important now for her to chase the dream of being a good singer than to try to chase two rabbits at once. Its better to chase one rabbit then another. If she couldn’t be able to give all her focus and energy on one thing then it wouldn’t be doing her best. She does plan on studying when she feels that its the right time.
