Random Fact: I'm awefully clumsy

My favorite color is purple. I'm a canto-ABC. I'm from Huntington Beach but no I can't surf. I'm turning 21 in October! I'm attracted to all things colorful and glittery. I'm a major biochem nerd at heart. I attempt to sing the songs that Tony writes. I go to Volcano way too much. I'm very easily amused. I love my CSA staff and I really hope you become one of us! ^_^

Random Fact: I am very random in general I love pineapples. I love chocolate croissants. With the two, my life is complete. I am what you called a "closet nerd". I openly make fun of my major and nerd stereotypes but secretly I am engineering to the bones. So if you're a south campus major (engineers esp.), let me know if you need help with classes, books, hw, old tests, anything. I got all the resources to hook you up. I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE music. I write and record music when I have time. Let me know if you want to jam! I'm always down for guitar jams. I'll be hanging out on Bruinwalk a lot so come by and say hi. I don't bite.

Quote: "Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called the Present."
Random Fact: I first started wearing glasses in the 1st grade.

When I joined CSA my freshman year, I remember meeting a lot of nice people that I became good friends with today. CSA has certainly made UCLA a fun and memorable experience. I am not your typical UCLA student, in fact I am a CIA (Chinese-Indonesian-American) ha! Although I'm part of a Chinese club, I do not speak any of the Chinese dialects; I do speak Indonesian, Sundanese, and a little bit of Japanese though. In my spare time, I enjoy listening to music, watching anime, keeping up with current events, and sleeping of course. Don't hesitate to come to our events, I guarantee it will be worth of your time! And if you see me on any of these events, say hi :D

Random Fact: My husband adorns my iPod cover; Darth Vadar has never been hotter.

Chances are, we'll have something in common. Even if it's not listed here, pretend I'm your new BFF already. Aside from that, I am just like any other little Asian kid that attends UCLA-- except I absolutely abhor science and math. I've sold my soul over to Daily Bruin Television and CSA (well, more like Homer's half donut), but am always on the look out to expand my networks. I am a multimedia journalism junkie that digs reading, thrifting, and spending too much time on fashion blogs. I worship Barbara Walters and CNN.com-- you should too.

I began interning for CSA my freshman year, became APC rep sophomore year, studied abroad in China and Korea for junior year, and am back to being just general officer for my senior year. My interests are my DS, my PS2, my computer, manga, music, tennis, food, being out in the nightlife, meeting new people, hanging out with friends doing nothing, and watching movies.

Random Fact: I love food!

I'm a carefree and fun-loving little girl from Sunnyvale (NorCal pride!). I love hanging out with friends and having fun, but when the time calls for it, I take things seriously and get down to business. Things I like to do for fun include shopping, running, making crafts, traveling, and hanging out with friends. I'm always down to try new things as well.

Random Fact: Coffee / Boba / Music addict

Hi guys, hope you've liked the new site so far. I spent my first year at UCLA exploring the hundreds of different clubs on campus, playing in the Badminton Club, hanging out with JAC, even serving as their Vice-President my second year. Ultimately I found CSA, and ever since I've been chilling out with everyone here and having a good time. Stop by the table on Bruinwalk to say hi and hang

Random Fact: I can chirp like a bird.

I am currently a senior enjoying my last year at UCLA. I was introduced to CSA last year after playing a homeless man in CSA's annual Heritage Night. Although I am relatively new to the organization, I've enjoyed my time in it and I hope to meet a lot of new people this year.

Random Fact: I'm allergic to bandaids and am hyper when I'm really tired LOL

To repeat what I wrote in a facebook note/survey, I'm a "happy, manga/asian drama/korean celebs/texting-addicted, music-loving, random person :p." Basically, I really like randomness and spontineity (NO, not like ENTROPY xD). I can usually be found at the CSA table eating Tsunami's udon or Taco Bell's crunchwrap, standing on the bench instead of sitting on it, trying to say "HI" really loudly at people I know, or getting into some sort of trouble when I have the urge to wave at random people (ahaha, okay, that was just one time with UNCLE ZHENG). When I'm not involved with CSA-related things, I can be found glued to my computer screen, watching anime or dramas, reading manga, or looking for pictures to draw. :] As for other facts, I love SRIRACHA hot sauce and I absolutely ADORE dogs and if the huskies (Elvis and Princess) are at the Bruin Bear, there are high chances that I will aslo be there petting the dogs. Also, I actually had originally signed up for at least three other culture clubs, but I ended up sticking with CSA because I feel like it's my home away from home. :] I don't know how to describe it other than that I love its asianness (lol) and welcoming atmosphere. ^__^x I hope to be able to meet many more (ahaha, alliteration) people and make lots of new friends through CSA and its events! ^___^x Fweee~ HAPPY 2009 EVERYONE :D

Random Fact: I call the Wacom tablet in the Daily Bruin office my "boyfriend".

I make really bad first impressions, so try coming back later if I ever awkward you out. Or maybe not, because I make every moment awkward. Anyway, I like doing artistic, creative things. I'm an illustrator for the Daily Bruin, so look out for my stuff, and I'm also the artistic director for China Care Bruins. I'm also a self-loathing premed. I follow celebrity gossip, and quote constantly from the blogs I read everyday. I call boba "bobo" because of Spencer Pratt. If you know who he is, we should talk. In my spare time, I read comics and have been trying to start one for.... quite some time.

Hmmmm...I tend to sleep whenever there is a chance, and I refuse to get up afterwards. Chinese pop music & Chinese facebook are my favorite.

Hi I'm Tracy Le and I came a far way from Los Angeles to come to UCLA. I have three F's which I hold very close to my heart; Family, Friends, and Food. I love to play basketball, volleyball, football, and tennis which I am learning, so if you ever want to play, just find me and I'm down to kick your butt, or try REALLY hard to :)
