Alex is my favorite person currently associated in any way with Canada.

Considering this is the same country that gave us Shania Twain, Kristin Kreuk, the Barenaked Ladies, Keifer Sutherland, Keanu Reeves and the immortal Hazel Mae, this is no small accomplishment.

Alex, my freshman roommate. When I think of him, I think of him wandering the halls of Larkin Hall at four in the morning, standing on his head, doing whatever he could to procrastinate working (see previous testimonial). I also think of the Yanni concert we went to!! I love you and miss you roomie, and hope our paths cross again.

oh, dear Alex... how much more naked
could a man be? And how much of a
better, loyal friend? Always there to
cheer you up with "apple, bread, chai" at
4am, even though his naked body may
have scared the bejezus out of both a
himalayn princess and the son of a
member of this hawkish administration.
so many times late at night when there
was no one else to count on. and, my,
how he procrastinates! never give this
man an extension...he'll still wait until
the last minute, or beyond! alex is far
away, and our paths keep being diverted
when they should cross, but I know I'll
see him again some day! SOON, I
hope!

Alex is a great guy, although somehow
I hardly ever see him anymore. I think
Stanford has sucked him in and is
holding him hostage. And he just wrote
my first testimonial! (Actually he
wrote 7 identical testimonials, but I
think that's some sort of Friendster
bug.) Anyway, Alex is a really nice
person. But don't let all this talk
about 'goodness' fool you - he's
definitely got a mischevious streak
too! Oh yeah, and he eats slower than
anyone I know.

i often think about alex either when i'm
eating food or when i'm not eating food. the
reason for that is between me and him. but
there's only so much of your goodness you
can keep a secret, alex.

Alex is an intellectual and
experiential melding of East and West.
Although perhaps still finding his
grounding, he floats effortlessly
within his search and exploration. His
eagerness to know and experience life
and others is delightful.

Man... I haven't seen Alex in over 10
years and he grows a full grown beard??
Craziness. By the way, Alex used to
beat me up and pick on me all the time
in junior high. I've been in
psychiatric rehabilitation ever since.
THANKS FOR NOTHING!
