You guys. UCLA’s dorm food is the best. Like really, it’s really delicious. And I will never be living in a dorm again, UCLA or otherwise, but since I have quit Hill-life, I’ve learned (like really learned) that dorm food is something to be cherished. Dining halls get a lot of props – they are…

Rushing through the end of summer session!!
Yes people, it’s that time again when you’re about to run out of time to finish up all your projects at school. Well at least for me it is that time again,haha.. I only have 3 weeks left for my summer session class, yay!!! Super excited, but that also means that less time to…
Trust walks on campus
It’s been over a month now since I left UCLA, and I can say without a doubt that the thing I miss most is the beautiful campus. I’ve been trying hard to be awed by the places I’ve been this summer, but even the streets of San Francisco do not affect me in the same way…
Summer break addition: research life
Hi there, so as I told you before that I am starting to do research this summer at one of the professors in the Bio-Engineering department. I want to tell you a little bit about how it going so far. As a new researcher, I usually shadow the grad student that I will be working…
Chancellor’s Residence
So, it is officially summer for me, but I don’t think I’ve quite gotten used to it yet. Being away from UCLA is hard – there’s just too much fun stuff to do there! (for example:) Right before I left school, I was lucky enough to go to an event at the chancellor’s residence. There…
My Savior
My little sister, away studying for own finals in Santa Barbara, really had my back this weekend. She managed to acquire five large cases of Monster drinks which she courteously left in Los Angeles for me. We are talking cases of 36. No- I did not drink all of them. The real act of kindness…
The season of goodbyes
Spring quarter is always the most difficult for me to finish because it marks the end of a school year and the culmination of their UCLA experience for an entire class of seniors. In a week, I will be losing a handful of my favorite people at UCLA, and they will head off into the…
The Career Center
Last week, I finally made my first trip to UCLA’s Career Center. I have been hearing about the Career Center even before I started my freshman year. During orientation I went to a presentation about the center and the various services they offer to students. Info on the center didn’t stop then – I continued…
Prepping for an annual spring concert
Since the fall of 2010, I have dedicated myself to a wonderful community service group on campus called YOUTHphonics A Cappella. Despite being an interdigitation of students with majors from all over campus, varying interests, and different musical preferences, one thing we have in common is our passion for singing and sharing music with local…
Picking a Paper Topic
As the end of the quarter is nearing, it is time to get working on those final papers. Some students dread them; I personally love them because they are usually in lieu of the final. But, I always struggle with picking a topic! Professors will tend to give very vague and open instructions, like pick…
