Re: UFH: Ken Leung
Ken,

Congrats, you are truely more insane than just about anyone else in this community, with maybe the exception of Dave. Your energy and dedication has helped expand the entire program in many ways, and your dedication to this community has shaped the changes that CD has gone through in the past 6 years.

Steve


PS. Dave: Can I be in on this?

Hey, I wouldn't mind going to Mars

Ken,

congradulations once again, I can't wait to see you at one of this year's competitions! You give guidance to the younger crowd and show them that despite how young you are, you can still accomplish a lot within the FIRST program.

p.s. Am I catching up?!!

Thank you, Mike.

Re: UFH: Ken Leung
KEN,
Congrats! (HO YEA! HO YEA! Chinese Phonics)

You are an amazing person and you desired this award.
I have never met you personally, but in the pass two years your postings on CD revealed an amazing transformation, more like a metamorphosis, from a HS student who is seeking knowledge and an answer to life to an enlightened FIRST Zen Master with incredible insight, intelligence and zest for life.

Your efforts with FIRST have set standards that very few can come close to.
YES, I envy YOU!

Someday….. when I grow up (mentally), I want to be just like you:
energetic,
unselfish,
knowledgeable,
wisdom beyond your years, and
amazing inside into the world around you.

And … a true FIRST Zen Master.

Someday… I will be like YOU.
(well… at lease I have the look!!!!!! lol)

An East Coast KEN Want-A-Be.

Think of it as a character building experience. Either that or an engineering challenge of how to get off Mars.
