Name: Julian Bataclan (I go by Jules from some people)
Hometown: Cincinnati, OH
High School: Anderson High School
Year: Junior
Major: Industrial and Systems Engineering
Interests: Music production, Playing piano, Karaoke, Football (especially Trojan football)
Music: Old & New Hip-Hop (Dr. Dre, Snoop, Jay-Z and Outkast to name a few), Old & New R&B (from R. Kelly to Ne-Yo)

Q: Why did you select to go to USC?
J: It was the summer after my junior year and I had no idea where I wanted to go to college. I knew I wanted to go to college in California and I wanted to try a new place since a lot of my father’s side of my family reside in the Bay Area. I visited USC and I just liked the whole vibe and atmosphere as soon as I got here. So I applied to USC later that year and I was accepted at the end of March 2005.

Q: What exactly is the meaning behind your name?
J: Julian is derived “from the same root as Julius and thus ultimately shares the Latin element related to the meaning ’sky,’ as the name Jove and Jupiter.” (courtesy of wikipedia.org)

Q: Give us a glimpse of your family, do you have siblings? Pets?
J: I have a mom and a dad, and a younger sister. Parents did not want to have pets.

Q: Which famous personality do you think you most closely resemble?
J: I like to consider myself as the Filipino version of Pharrell.

Two Truths and One Lie:

Name: Vernon Fernandez Roque
Hometown: Burbank, CA
High School: John Burroughs High
Year: Sophomore
Major: Electrical Engineering
Interests: TV, playing video games, playing basketball, running
Music: Hip hop and Old Rock. Some Oldies and R&B.

I selected to go to USC because I get free tuition. I am just really lucky to go to such a great school and not have to pay for classes. I also like how close it is from my home so I could always visit my family whenever I want to.

The meaning of my name is Place of alders. It is of Norse origin.

I have a mother and father and a younger brother who is 16 years old right now.

When I grow out my hair people either say I look like Bruce Lee, or Chong Li from Bloodsport.

Two Truths and one lie:
1. I was homecoming king of my high school
2. I saw Ron Howard at basketball gym
3. I have gone sky diving

SO. I’m just going to throw this out there…where does everyone want to go for this glorious week? I’m open to suggestions. Once we’ve decided, I’ll look at our options and start planning for, like I said, the most amazing week of our lives.

Some suggestions already…………….for you to ponder on…………

(The last one is my personal favorite.) Thoughts?

As part of our proposal our goal was to make 4,000 bag lunches, which means… 4,000 water bottles. For some reason the school decided to order the water bottle ahead of schedule and delivered to the Student Government office. The night before they decided to let us know that we had to pick them up.

So, called into action the bros came together to transport 167 24-bottle water cases to the Greenhouse.

Casey, Randy, Izach, and Water- Lots of It

Casey picked up the transport vehicle (a U-Haul van) to carry the boxes. Luckily the boxes just made it into the van. Above you see the van parked on the street behind Carl’s Jr. Now figure the distance all the way to the Student Government office (Around the corner from mail station, past the stairs to downstairs commons). Yeah.

I had just came from the Lyon center so was short on energy, yet somehow we all managed to move everything into the van. On a mission, we just kept going.

Water, Randy, and Boxers

Did I mention we then unloaded them at the Greenhouse?

Yeah, and to add to that, we will need to move them again on the day of the event in the same manner! Until then, they fill half the kitchen and the living room. Besides making sub-par chairs, they don’t have much other use. The idea has been thrown out about oversized lego blocks, but that sounded pretty dangerous.

So the bulk of the work has just started. Operation Arrowhead is just the tip of the iceberg as we continue to make strides in what will be the biggest Zeta Phi “Skid” Rho to date.

Now, to rest my aching arms.

This past CBB featured Halloween mask making and candy. The event turned out successfully and the everyone had a good time.

Ascot Elementary Classroom Making Masks

In the end I ended up making a 300 mask and then later collaborated with Randy to make a Pikachu mask. Of course, I let my little keep them as well as smuggling some extra candy to him.
