Exploring LA
It was a ritual freshman and sophomore year to talk about exploring Los Angeles. At the beginning of each quarter, each one of my friends and I would promise each other that we were finally ready to start taking LA discovery seriously and that we would Yelp as many restaurants and museums as we could,…
Leap of Faith
I really love the outdoors and adventures. After a week of being flyered and seeing old friends, all while starting classes, this weekend my friends and I were able to go on an incredibly spontaneous adventure in Angeles National Forest. At 3:30 on Sunday afternoon, one of my friends ran to my apartment (from just…
Norcal Bliss
With just a week before going back down to LA to start school, I wanted to spend the last few days here in NorCal doing some of my favorite things: walking along the beach and hiking. Last weekend, my mom took a day off from her work to go hiking with me at the Henry…
Back in time for Senior Year
Well, its’s that time of year again….students have already started moving in, band camp has started, RAs are here, and the apartments are surrounded by furniture being moved in and out. I love Fall- as a season and as a quarter. I love that the weather starts too cool off (theoretically) and all of my…
Starstruck!

I had made previous arrangements months before through email and phone, and it was surprisingly difficult to find doctors who were available for shadowing. I got to shadow an orthodontist, an oral surgeon, an osteopathic…
Sprouts Superiority
Slowly but surely I am becoming good at feeding myself. Eating in the dorms was (perhaps surprisingly) very complex. The decision of where to grab lunch on the Hill almost always involved a series a calculations that included things like the number of stairs on the way to the dining hall, salad bar choices, and…
Free Kayaking!
I don’t know if you can tell, but I love the outdoors! I love running, hiking, going to the beach, and now….KAYAKING! UCLA students get two free hours of kayaking down at the Marina Del Rey Aquatics Center. This is something that I’ve heard about numerous times, but have never taken advantage of. Recently my…
Best Seafood
One of the places I visited in South Korea this summer is a little Southern county named Taean(“Tae-Ahn”), located in Choongchung province. Famous for its unpolluted air, beautiful beaches, and national parks, Taean is a popular tourist attraction in Korea. I luckily had an opportunity to go there to visit one of my aunts this…
