Truong Ta

jet

This is Truong. He goes to University of St. Thomas with Hoang and me. At UST the three of us call ourselves JBJ which stands for Jackie, Jet and Bruce. Truong is Jet, hence the theme of this page. I am Bruce and Hoang is Jackie.

The reason that I am even going to UST at all is made possible by him and him alone. He comes by every morning to pick me to go to school. This semester, he has to go to school an hour early every Monday, Wednesday and Tuesday because I have an eight o' clock class and he doesn't. I got a chance to know him really well this year, and so far I found out that he is one of the biggest crybaby that i have ever met in my life. The boy is cool to be around with, but sometimes he can be dingbat. And for some reason, he always have a cash flow problem because he always seems to be running out of money all of the time. I call him a "po ass nigga."

Truong met his girlfriend, Diem Huynh, this year. She is really nice. She drives a Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX. That's about all I know about cars, hehe. She is really good in pool. Truong and Diem hangs out at the UC alot. They also do well in bowling. He always claims that she "dogs" him alot (which is true) by making fun of him. Sometimes she slips and says that he is scrawny or she teases him by saying the he is ugly. I really don't know much about her, because I rarely play with her, but she did highlight my hair for me, which I thought looked really nice. Truong has to be lucky to find a girl like her who (as far as I can tell) takes things very lightly. His sorry self gets all pissy all over nothing and she has to put up with alot of it.

Truong has a little brother that we all call "Tiny." But like in Robin Hood, Little John is not little, and Tiny is not tiny. Truong and Tiny plays football with us, and Tiny is very hard to bring down. It's kind funny how Truong's scrawny butt is actually good at football. We all know about my knee story so I won't go into it here. Anyway, we all call Truong scrawny because he is somewhat scrawny. He looks kind of lanky at times because he is bony. Not to say that I am not, but they don't tease me as scrawny.

One thing that I and many of the members of the group have learned is that to lend Truong things entitle you to only about a 10% chance of getting it back. Anything can be missing from his house. It's a bit of a mystery how things just vanish when they get into his possessions, but still we all lend him things anyway.
