PICTURE OF THE WEEK has been updated!!! Really pretty! ^_^x I’ve also got plans for next weeks picture already, thanks to the great sammu.

I just came back from an arduous study session with mecha on psychology which we have a midterm today (technically 12 hrs from now) I’m so freakn tired. Woke up @ 7:40am yesterday and had ~8hrs of school and then 4 hrs of studying for psych (first time the book was cracked open, hehe) Came back and died on my desk. Was later woken up by my suitemates and then been playing with my computer since. My study session with mecha was very interesting. According to Sigmund Freud, slip of the tongue represents some type of release of your internal self. During the course of our study session, we came across a name Horney (horn – eye) and mecha basically said horny. We had such a blast and couldn’t stop laffing after realizing he pronounced it wrong.

FINALLY!!! MIDTERMS for this week are over! Totally bombed my Psych one, but it’s okay cause I never really did anything for that class (in a psychological point of view, this would be a defense mechanism theorized by Sigmund Freud. Basically, the only reason I’m not feeling too bad is because I believe or HOPE that no one did that well too) My Computer Science (oh god! I almost had a heart attack)… As I was walking down to my midterm @ 7pm, I rethought… was the midterm @ 5-7 or 7-9? Last year’s midterm (cs3 – same teacher: Dan Garcia) was from 5-7) oh sh*t!!!! I started sweating and panicking. What am I going to DO????? As I was walking toward the building, I saw more and more people walking the other way. CS61A is a very big class and NO ONE was walking the same way as me!!!! Being to VLSB (Valley Life Science Building) for my first time, I was also lost and asked for direction. I got in and found the room, walked in and they were just starting to give instructions (YES! YES! I was practically thanking god for this). The midterm went really well, and our whole midterm group (yes, there was an individual section and a group section) went out to Mel’s (basically SoCal’s Johnny Rockets) for a little celebration.

woke up @ 11am today. Yes AM, not PM. Wasn’t worth it. Had to work on my cs project and midterm review. Yuck. However, I felt very productive today. Finished my cs homework, went to dinner @ La Val’s (2 medium pizza for $16 total, so $4 each for 4 ppl). Then I went for Boba at Quikeleys. Their milk green tea wasn’t as good as the one I usually get at asian ghetto food court. Then we went to unit one to shoot pool and foosball (yay! 2 guys beat 1 girl, hehe) I know we were bastards, but the girl almost won so we really felt incompetent ;p.

Btw, I got my first real compliment from beardseeba today about my tail. He said he didn’t like it yesterday, but he’s gotten into it and is starting to like it. W00h00!!! Girls however still don’t seem to like it, ex: rainy and cari. =) btw, I find it better calling it a tail than a mullet. Never even knew what a mullet was!

Nothing else much happened to today.

My experience with the Post Office was extremely good today. Wait time was less than 20mins and I had jamba juice as I waited. (don’t get orange dream thingy, was okay, but not too good). My midterm is due in an hour, and as I was doing the practice problems, I realized I had no idea how to graph these weirdos! Oh no!!! I’m doomed!!!!

Thanks to my friend jhchichiri! He saved my life! Gave me a 30sec lecture on how to graph xy=z and other weird spherical and cylindrical graphs. *whew*

Midterm just ended. Didn’t do too well, but oh well. Ran outta time. =( I just took the IM addict quiz. 52% addicted to Instant Messenger. How about you? You guys are in for a treat for next week’s picture. ^_^x

YES! YES! YES! I finally got to eat at the DC on Friday. You know how many days I’ve missed my Friday meal????????? I was invited to Chevy’s today and declined because I promised myself I was going to eat at the Dining Commons finally. Initially I promised to go eat Thai with cari and I realized I promised myself I had to eat at the DC, but thank god everything worked out and cari changed it to Sunday. I felt bad declining my friend’s invitation to Chevy’s though and made up a really bad excuse of having gone to Chevy’s a few weeks before. Why am I obsessed with DC on Fridays. Not only because I haven’t been to the DC once during Friday since the semester started, but because they have Clam Chowder!!!!!! Their clam chowder isn’t exceptionally good, but I have an obsession for clam chowder. They just taste good no matter who makes them. Of course there will be those that oppose to my liking of the DC’s clam chowder which many think is bad. Once again, I’d like to take the time to apologize to lori and milkmandan.

I’ve just been bombarded with tons of problems. Just realized I’m still not enrolled in Math 54 (linear algebra and linear differentials). Already setup a meeting with the Head TA for tomorrow. Then I have a Math 53 (multivariable calculus) midterm on Friday I just found out. I actually marked it on my calendar, but didn’t realize it till I went to discussion today. Then I need a GPA Verification Form which I still have no idea what to do with it yet, but have to submit it somehow to apply for Cal Grant. WHY CAN’T LIFE SLOW DOWN!!! Things were just starting to look good when I had my homework done last week. I couldn’t even get up for class this morning since I did homework till 6am running off M&Ms. Staying awake is one thing. Staying awake to do homework is a totally different thing.

My friends Liam and Lydia and I had a discussion on how guys and girls hate each other differently. Guys tend to never hate girls for we see them as delicate beings who need to be loved. Guys can find girls annoying and that’s when we began to ignore them, but deep inside we don’t hold grudges or hate them extensively. When a guy truly hates a girl, he has no problem admitting it. I hated this girl in elementary school so much because she was always so cocky and stuck her nose up at me. I can clearly remember times when I beat her on a test and I would yell “YES!!!” just to make her feel bad. Girls on the other hand, tend to hold all types of hatred deep inside them. They act normal and friendly in front of each other, but once they are alone with others, they talk behind their back and basically badge on each other. I can never see a guy doing that, although there are exceptions, but I’m talking about a typical guy vs a typical girl. I hope this won’t stir up a case against me for being sexist for I’m scared of the yellow lawyer lady-man (inside joke from psych 2).
