i'm a busy bee.

battle of the bands was aiight. i was proud of kenny. too many laughs with victor: cell phone hxc moshing, goin dumb, starting up the crowd. i drive home, pick up some stuff and go to my cousin's house the night. i stayed up until 230am trying to figure out TeleBEARS and what classes to pick. woke up at 4am and head out at 5am.

my cousin sarah drove me to berkeley and i tried to keep talking so we stayed awake. we get to campus and it is BARREN. she walks me to Dwinelle plaza and nobody was thereeeee minus bums. so we go inside, and lucky for us the bathroom is in the BASEMENT. while in there, we hear coughing from a man coming from a vent in the wall. helluv scary. then we go outside, find her way to the freeway, and come back to orientation. got my shat together, had breakfast, and go inside for a welcome. It was this asian prof. guy and he was HILARIOUS. I mean he drew pictures of himself on the chalkboard so that people in the back had a good view of what he looked like in case they ever wanted to approach him on campus. then he says in the spirit of halloween, he was going to tell us of the "horrors" of Berkeley. He then proceeds to draw a bat, ghost, broom, and witch hat on the board. The he starts talking about THE CURVE and OFFICE HOURS. office hours got an extra ghost. he's so hilarious.

throughout the day we had workshops, one of which inspired me to study abroad hopefully in Rome. I met some nice people, but nobody that i really clicked with. Ate lunch by myself :( so i called deer after to make myself feel better haha *loser*
i was approached by a muslim girl about being roommates.

we talked, had group discussions, learned about requirements and all that jazz. Afterward our group person Val gave us a debreif type thing with some guy. I called sarah, and decided to wait.

I got antsy and started to walk around telegraph all by myself. I just wanted to marinate in the hustle and bustle of berkeley. There were kids smoking weed on the corner, little scene/punk kids riding their bikes, and eager vendors on the sidewalks. I can tell it's going to be a wonderful 4 maybe 5 years haha.

After i got picked up we drove to AliBaba's. It was an afghan restaurant and hookah bar. Met some cousins and friends there and had a good time. One of the better bellydancers i've seen. Then we went to Nora's house and had tea, watched her wedding video. too bad i missed it. i started to fall asleep toward the end. you know...the ugly kind where your head is tilted back and your mouth slightly open hahahaha.

so we get home at like midnight. chat with deer before sleep overtook me. i slept in the same position until morning.

ive got to meet ryan at borders to discuss our presentation and hopefully make time for deer, and hopefully have a victor sighting and hopefully put finishing touches on the presentation.

aghhhhh.

i'm really getting into Ben Harper. i've always heard about him, now i actually like his music.
