Tangent Alpha
After my last post, I've had quite a while to cool my head a bit. Not to mention get out of PMS phase. Seriously, I'm getting sick of this monthly cycle of normal -> angry/depressed -> normal... not to mention every time it's that time of month I get bad cramps and I tend to be a lot more tired, which does nothing to help me through classes and ( Read more... ) -
Rage
Someone up there hates me.
So apparently people with higher class standing gets higher priority for choosing classes. Which means since I have 59.5 units from AP's and community college, just half a unit away from junior standing, I should get to pick classes fairly early, right?
WRONG.
By an unfortunate turn of events, our lovely admin processed my ( Read more... ) -
Random Happenings
Wow, last night was the first time I slept ten hours straight in like... years. That was amazing. Maybe it had something to do with daylight savings. Now I'm totally energized for wushu later today.
Past few weeks have been pretty exciting... Halloween, not so much, but oh well.
I went to my first ever internship/career fair - note to self: do not ( Read more... ) -
The paperwork never ends
I've decided I'm not going to double major, one because I'd have to take around 20 units every semester for the next four years, and two because apparently there's no point in double majoring if I'm going to grad school anyway. But I AM going to attempt a Chinese minor. Shouldn't be that hard, since it only requires 2 years worth of Chinese ( Read more... ) -
Back to the Classics
We got to practice wushu in the mat room today. So I decided to bug one of the upperclassmen to teach me butterfly twist. After flopping on the mat several times, I have now progressed from landing on my left shoulder to landing on my face. >_ob
The weather's been getting colder lately, and we still haven't figured out how to turn on the heater. I ( Read more... ) -
Rambling On
Nothing too exciting has been happening lately. Or maybe by now I'm so used to the Berkeley lifestyle that the extraordinary has ceased to amaze me. Okay, maybe it's now that bad, but I'm pretty sure if I went back to Cupertino now I'd be pretty bored.
I've been doing a bit of exploring lately. Yesterday I decided to go running in the hills behind ( Read more... ) -
Randomness
1. If you've been tagged, you must write your answers in your own LJ and replace any question that you dislike with a new, original question.
2. Tag eight people. Don't refuse to do that. Don't tag who tagged you. In short: OBEY. NO TAG BACKS!
Tagging: deformed_cookie, arbitraryster, blobofboredom, saranakins, Ann and Vanessa (who I know for a fact ( Read more... ) -
Perpetual Soreness and Enlightening Talks
I don't think I've exercised this much since cross country. Wushu on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, running with the Cal Running Club on Saturday, and paddling practice with Cal Concrete Canoe today, all while walking more than 3 miles up and down the hills of Berkeley every day. And with all this physical activity brings a soreness that seems like ( Read more... ) -
What I do when I should be studying for midterms...
I think I finally realize why people say classes at Berkeley are hard. It's not the material that's hard, it's what they expect you to do with the material you learn. Oh well, it's still not as ridiculous as Birdsong's class ( Read more... ) -
I'll take this one, and this one, and...
The first full week of instruction is over, which means clubs are going in full swing. Back during Welcome Week we had this thing called the Calapalooza which is basically Berkeley's version of Club Day. Except better, because the food is FREE and practically ALL the major clubs/organizations of campus are out there, available to answer questions ( Read more... )
