i remember the first time i saw you. it was the first asian dance at the union. you were bopping up and down in the corner. with your friends. in a big circle. it seemed like you had rhythm. so i mentioned to heather that we should grab you for a dance. she said she knew you already.



i first saw you on stage. during the huaren fashion show. wearing a chinese outfit and matching fake ponytail hat. you were making the funniest damn faces i'd ever seen.



you wore a trademark v-neck t-shirt. and when you spoke. your voice rumbled. and you reminded me of dj theo.



you were forced to go up in front of ccf with je-yi and me. because we had september birthdays.



i tried to talk to you at the first huaren meeting my senior year. because you had big LA asian hair. and so i concluded you were probably from the west coast. you rebuffed any attempts at conversation.



you were playing a board game in my dorm room (taboo?) and laughing it up with everyone else. i covertly tried to figure out who you were and what the heck you were doing in our room. but greg and louis didn't seem to know you either.



i remember sitting at church fellowship, trying to figure out if you were kathy's ex-boyfriend that we had heard so much about.



my first coherent memory of you is at age three. in taijong. and you brought me slippers to put on my feet. because that's what little sisters do.



recalling the first time you met/saw someone is fun.
