This quarter, my two south campus classes are both held in the heart of north campus, one in Dodd Hall and the other next door in Bunche. I have a two hour gap between them on Wednesday, and have discovered my new favorite study spot. With the beautiful spring weather, I like to study outside,…

A Solar Afternoon
I cannot believe that it is already the end of 8th week, spring quarter of my second year. It is hard to believe how quickly this quarter, and this year has flown by. I cannot wait for summer, but I also really do not want to leave UCLA and Southern California! I have had…
Delicious & Hilarious
Wednesday night was an excellent night for two reasons: it was delicious it was hilarious Wednesday was the night of the Hill’s annual themed dinner. Every year, Housing & Hospitality goes above and beyond to put on a beautiful themed dinner for the residents in the dorms. Last year, the theme was Hawaiian, which meant…
Portugal. The Man
Before I start let me just say that I usually do not like live music. It’s loud, it’s hard to understand, and it’s almost always stuff I don’t know the words to (the only songs I know by heart are Love the Way You Lie by Eminem and Rhianna and Glamorous by Fergie). The other…
Spring Sing
Remember a little over a month ago when I wrote a post about camping out to buy Spring Sing tickets? Well after lots of waiting, Spring Sing finally came! The big night was last Friday and it was so much fun. We got there fifteen minutes ahead of time (yippee, reserved seating!) and all got…
UCLA Luskin Lecture for Thought Leadership
Gina gave you the scoop on how having the former president come to campus shook things up, but how about an insider’s look! I was one of those lucky students she mentioned who got to go see Clinton speak (for free, woo woo!). Besides a bunch of extra security à la the secret service (which…
Bill Clinton
On my normal day walk back from class, I passed by a security notification restricting Royce Hall access tonight due to Bill Clinton’s speech. Yes, Bill Clinton, former president of the United States. It’s certainly not an everyday occasion that a man of this stature speaks at our University! He was the keynote speech for…
State Finals
This past weekend was State Finals! It’s a two-day event put on by the UCLA Alumni Association, and it is essentially a scholarship competition for incoming students who have received an alumni scholarship. Because I am a part of the Outreach Committee for the Alumni Scholars Club (which is the club with all the kids…
Meeting Josh Hutcherson
This past week, along with my roommate, I got to meet Peeta from Hunger Games- Josh Hutcherson. Josh was here on behalf of Ally Week representing the anti-bullying campaign Straight But Not Narrow. It was wonderful being able to meet such an inspirational and rising young artist such as Josh. I was so star struck!…
Spring Quarter Classes
At UCLA, we have the first two weeks of the quarter to change class times, sections or perhaps classes in general. Now that we are well into third week, schedules are finalized. This quarter I am taking four classes. 1) Phy Sci: Continuation of the core series for my major. This is the last class…
