finally a breather!
im starting to fall in love with ucla.
my grades are okay, not super, just average
but im getting involved and i love it.
it makes me feel like im always busy, but it's a good feeling.
tomorrow night is dance marathon. it was started 4 years ago and its goal is to raise money for pediatric aids. i was going to sign up to dance but i decided to be a moraler. moralers are people who come in every 3 hours and refresh the spirits of those who are dancing. yupp! i signed up for three shifts, from 9pm - 6 am. it's going to be AWESOMEEE i'm so excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ahh. and then! when thats over, imma go back to my room and bam! at 9 am that same day, im going to go take cpr classes. my certification from last year is almost expiring, and ucla is offering classes. i signed up with amy sean, this girl who lives on my floor. we're gonna be roommates next year and i love her!!!!! we connect so well, i've never ever had a relationship with a girl that was as awesome as the one i have with her. i love it!!!!! i can totally be myself around her and that is sooo awesome. she's from norcal and she's so funny. we've hung out so much that we started to pick up each other's mannerisms. haha.
mm, i find out if i get PA next friday, i'm scared but super excited. i really want it!! then im going to apply to be a LI sup cuz even though some of their seminars arent that good, there are two are three that really chaanged my life and the way i see others and the world. it's amazing how sheltered i've been for the past 17 years of my life.
ee and guessss what! i'm vice president of this new organization called Bruin Olympics. it started with this guy on 5 south, named nick, and he had a idea to create a olympics for ucla students to raise money for special olympics. it's an awesome idea, there are a lot of details that i dont feel the need to get into but! we had our first meeting last thursday and it was awesome. there are so many hopes and expectations for this. its going to be amazing- i feel it! i cant wait to start working on it. there's so much to do, so many people to contact and so much money to raise, but i am totally up for this challenge. yay!
andddddddd, my grandma and mommy came to visit last saturday. it was so fun. i told them about everything and they love it and its awesome. they met amy and colin, and then they took me and amy out to eat. it was so fun! and then, on sunday, david came and that was soooo coool. he hung out with people on my floor and it was so chill and relaxing. it was raining outside so it was perfect to stay in and just talk and hang out. aweeesome!
today, after class, i went to goodwill to buy some clothes for dance marathon tomorrow. we get to dress to theme, and for my three shifts, im doing disco, a knight for the cure, and something 80s. yup! we got some pretty cool stuff, and it was all pretty cheap. it was funn.
i havent updated lj in a while, and so much has happened that i think i should write it down more so i wont forget.
on valentines day, david came and i had lunch with his sister and his sister's fiance at arnold swarchenngeghaf (how ever yu spell it) in santa monica. then we went to venice, where we got hennas and he bought me a TOTE!! YAY!!! and sunglasses. then we had dinner in westwood and watched boogieman and i hate that movie. its stupid and scary. then we went back and he had to go home, but it was the best valentine's day ever :)
and um, this past thursday, lip had a seminar on social justice. and it really opened my eyes to see how unjust this world his. there is racism and discrimination everywhere, even tho we live in the 21st century. ahh when will it end.
i've partied a lot less now. getting more focused on academics and clubs really makes me feel good.
ohh tuesday, i went to asian american culture night. it was sooo awesome. my friend yoshi jon is on the aca dance team and they kicked ass. and i saw lion dancing and fan dancing. there are some really amazing and talented people on this campus. it makes me want to be a part of ACA next year so i can help put on this program. i also wanna join dance marathon next year.
i'm rethinking my business major.
i fall asleep in class a lot.
i almost aced my last calculus midterm
i beat this guy named eric, on my floor in scrabble one night by almost 80 points, and he cheated when i went to get my laundry and made a 35 point word. that whore.
i say whore a lot now
its bad
i miss my high school friends. but i love the ones ive made here.
i havent drank in a long time.
my cell phone fell into the toilet one day. it was so disgusting. i didnt have a phone for three days and i felt like i was missing a big piece of me.
i saw chicago on boardway. it was amazing. i love it, but i love the movie better.
i met frederick of hedrick and now he knows me and i hope to get involved in his theatre production this year.
i might write for the daily bruin next year. but im not sure i have time for that commitment next quarter
i have 5 classes this quarter and i feel like i never have any tme to myself, so next quarter im just going to have 4, one being a one unit class. this means i begin at noon on monday, end at 5:30. on weds and friday, no classes! and only 2 /3 on tues and thurs. its going to be awesome.
i cant wait till spring. i wanna wear skirts!! :)
i do calc hw every thursday night with this guy named billy and the other guy on my floor, eric. we have fun times.
