What is your most memorable PDP memory?

We first arrived in NY in November of 2001. We had previously met Steve Young on our flight to NY. After landing, we were HELLA tired (yes, I said hella), but had the most jam-packed schedule. Everything in a nutshell, we had Dim Sum at 9am, shooting pool at 11am, a meeting with the brothers for a few hours, dinner in Chinatown with the some NYU bros, party at Club Speed, only to wake up the next day for pizza in Little Italy, whirlwind tour around Manhattan, and visiting the infamous Ground Zero before heading back to California again. I wonder if it’s possible for anyone else to do that in two days…very fun.

Something you've always wanted to do:

I’ve always wanted to travel around the world and experience as many cultures as I can. It’s always good to be educated about other cultures. I think it keeps people open minded.

Hidden Talents?

I can bend my pinky finger to the back of my hand (no perverted thinking, please)…oh! And I can cook a mean ol’ fashioned Tom Yum soup (just ask any of the brothers that I cooked for). And for those of you that don’t know, Tom Yum soup is a traditional Thai spicy soup.

Why I Pledged Pi Delta Psi:

I needed to be part of a positive force that educated others on their culture/heritage and made an impact on the surrounding community. In Pi Delta Psi, I saw ONE BROTHERHOOD that stood for the same morals, values, and traditions. This was unique and stood out from other Greeks out there. There was no doubt in my mind when I found out about PDPsi… Now I can contribute to PDPsi as the Asian Voice.

As cliché as it is, I must ask you a California question. Which way does the water spin when you flush the toilet over on the other side? They do flow in some odd west-coastish vortex shit right? Oh and, You’ve experienced both the East and the West… end the debate once and for all: Which coast has the hotter girls… and which coast has the bestest gangster rap?

I think that both coasts have good gangster rap. However my vote goes to the West Coast because of individuals/groups such as 2-pac, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, and NWA. I’m sure you guys agree with me on that…

Well now, the toilet spins in a CLOCK WISE fashion. But I suppose it makes the crap go down most efficiently if it is in that direction. Just to answer that question I had to go stand above my toilet and actually observe it!! Hahaha. (with no crap in it of course)

I fear for my safety if I answer that question about the girls. Haha… but seriously, I find the girls on both coasts very attractive but with different styles. However, I think that Cali girls are better…no doubt about it. (uh oh… I see an east coast style bitch slap comin’ on)


**Webmaster's Commentary: Haha... Jacob actually answered the toilet question! I saw it on the simpsons! .. but they were in Australia.
