There is a family quality among Tran and his seven roommates.

One Saturday morning, Tran and his roommate Tim Han made eggs, flapjacks and homefries for the house. They cooked more than 20 pancakes, 18 eggs and a lot of homefries.

"That was our first official family meal," Tran said.

Tran makes a point of cooking for his family, whether it is his roommates or his 13-year-old sister, Dayna, back in California. During the summer, Tran had his sister taste test different breakfast options including Snickers pancakes, strawberry frosted flakes pancakes and Cap'n Crunch french toast.

"I'd like to think I'm the best cook in the house," Tran said. "I love pancakes, I love making pancakes."

In addition to cooking and living a no meat lifestyle, Tran finds time for listening to music, playing guitar, video games and, of course, dancing.

"My favorite song (to play is) 'Wherever You Will Go' by The Calling," he said. "A direct quote from one of my roommates, 'I sound like drunk Elvis when I play it.'"
