| Sam "The Kid" Wu (the one being pummeled) Sam B. Wu, 16, oft noted for usage of excessive verbiage, none of which contains any substance pertinent to subject matters at hand, currently is a second-year pupil at the North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics. His unconstructive and nonsensical whims, none of which are—needless to say—relevant enough to mention in this scant space, occupy much of his likewise unremarkable life. When he can be roused to pursue tasks of any perceived value however, he partakes in violin-playing, soccer, and obscure logic problems. Chief interests of his are acts of gluttony in locales of fine dining and lying awake thinking about thinking about nothing. In spite of his obvious shortcomings, he enjoys making new acquaintances and hopes to make yours shortly. |
| Peter Zhu Peter Y. Zhu doesn't have inspiration right now, so we shall have to wait until tomorrow. |
Leadership is the art of getting someone else to do something you want done because he wants to do it.
- Dwight D. Eisenhower
