Self-Description

I come from two different backgrounds; born in California and currently live in Taiwan. Long story. I'm very outgoing and I don't like to regret things that have already happened. Everything happens for a reason. If you want to know more about me, find me and I'll tell you everything :)

 
Why AGD?
AGD was one of the few that has girls that I felt comfortable being around at all times. To have people that share similar interests and personality traits with you in the same sorority is one of the determinants of what I look for in a sorority.

Favorite Alpha Gam moment?
The lunch and dinner talks; we always somehow manage to laugh until we can't breathe, while listening and sharing some special and interesting moments we encountered.
   
Favorite part of living in the house
Being in the house is equivalent to knowing that there will always be someone you can count on whenever and wherever. All these years of being a member of AGD has helped me realize and practice the skills and situations that every one of us will eventually run into when we graduate and go on into the real world. I've learned and developed the most in the social aspect, because you learn how to deal with certain situations and people undergoing certain emotions.
   
If you could go anywhere, where would you go and why?
Hands down LONDON. Just simply because it is one of the most beautiful countries I've traveled to.  The city is literally breath-taking, and its areas in business, fashion, and international relations are one of the most recognized in the world.
   
What do you enjoy doing?
Movies, listening to music, sports, hanging out with friends, shopping
 
What is a "Steph Liu" moment?
That was a "Steph Liu" moment? You'd have to be hyper, sometimes slow on reacting or realizing things in conversations, anything related to Taiwan-California, indecisive, always the last one done in getting ready, sleeps wherever and whenever, competitive in sports
 
Curfew at home?
I don't have a curfew.  Basically my curfew is whenever I'm home, I'm home.  There's no point in arguing since my parents are really strict.
 
Stereotype of being Asian?
I'm about 5'9", but I get a lot of questions with how I'm this tall. Honestly I don't know, unless the facts that my mom's 5'7" and my dad's 5'10", and I played basketball and high jumped in high school help with explaining.
 
Traveling?
My parents love traveling so I've been to a lot of countries.  Singapore, Hong Kong, China, Japan, Indonesia, Europe, Canada, Australia, Thailand....
 
Pets?
I've had fish like a lot of kids, but I've had a hamster with my friend back in high school.  We named him Miko, because he ate all the time like Miko the raccoon in Pocahontas....
 
Why Purdue?
Basically because Purdue is one of the best colleges I've been accepted to and Krannert is one of the most prestigious and recognized business schools around the world.
   
Future Goals
Be successful in life, especially my career, and I want to live in a studio apartment.
   
You've just been given $500 to spend however you like, what would you spend it on?
Save $300 and spend the $200 on necessary stuff.
