Eric Mah - Best Man

|
What was your first impression of Victor?
Dog.
Not a canine from the pound of course, but a person who I believe embodies and lives loyalty and dedication each day. The moment I met Victor, it was clear to me that he'd be one of my dearest friends and companions in life because of the trust that I could hold in him. He's a man of virtue who wears his heart on his sleeve. Through the highest of highs and lowest of lows, I've found Victor to always be there for me. First impression, dog, being loyal through it all and mah's best friend.
What is his most attractive feature?
Breath.
Not from his mouth of course, but the way he lives life to its fullest where he personifies a breath of fresh air in world often filled with complacency. His never waning ambition through all facets of life constantly drives Victor to up his game whether it be in sports, academics, career, friendship, family or love. He's a truly breath-taking person whose stalwart approach to excellence is so endearing. Most attractive feature, breath, because he breathes inspiration into me to excel as he does.
What is your most memorable time with him?
151.
Not the Bacardi that burns on the way down, but the class of folks at Berkeley who wanted to make a difference. Among this class, stood Victor, a person who took the class and the organization to new heights. My most memorable times were pledging with Victor, going through the thick and thin of initiation together without ever being fazed. Then having the privilege of partnering with Victor to lay the bricks for an exciting path ahead for the organization. More specifically, my most memorable time with Victor was hitting the gym together religiously and talking about how one day we'd rule the world. Most memorable time, 151, not just because of the drunken fraternity daze but because of the palpable brotherhood.
Words of wisdom for Vivien
Run.
Not away, but alongside and to. Victor's pace in life is like no other. When Victor decides to move, his speed is unparalleled and his direction is non-linear. He's the most passionate person I've ever met and his insatiable thirst for the love of life is so very admirable. He runs hard in work, runs hard in play and runs hard in love. But he's also man enough to know when to run for help when needed. Vivien, run, run alongside my friend Victor in the exciting marathon of life, and run to him in your times of need, and run, of course, he will to you, so be prepared to embrace him. |
