I am not quite sure why my Psychology of Fear class keeps coming up as my topic of choice for my blog entries, but here we go again. In reality, it does dominate my life! This weekend, our professor was out of town, so we had a guest lecturer. I was aware I had to…
A Day in Pre-History
One of the best things about UCLA is the incredible faculty. Every member of our faculty is very accomplished and they are incredibly smart people. Of course, there are a few stars. I have the privilege of taking a geography class with Jared Diamond. Professor Diamond has written New York Times bestsellers including Guns Germs…
Princeton Ly – Savings
With college costs rising every year, students need all the help they can get to save money. I recently started using NerdWallet’s* tools, and it has helped save me a few hundred dollars a year (and lots of time). I thought I’d share some of the things I learned to help save you money. 1) Checking accounts with…
Test Taking Continues
Yesterday, I took the CSET Multiple Subjects test: it includes of three subtests spanning over English subjects, History, Science, Math, Physical Development, Human Development and Visual and Performing Arts. It was one of the hardest tests I’ve ever taken. Though it doesn’t go all the way up to the hardest parts of every subject it…
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…
Magic Castle vs The Avengers!
The Avengers!!! Enough said, you already know what I want to say… It was so amazing!!! I’m not a big super hero fan, but for this movie I can say that I loved it!! It was worth my time and worth my money to watch it 🙂 But before that, let’s back up couple hours…
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…
Week 5- Halfway done with Undergrad!
This week brings Week 5! That means that I am halfway done with my Undergraduate years as a student at UCLA. This is definitely ringing a bell that midterms are coming, papers are coming, graduation event-planning is coming, and graduation itself is upon us. It seems like Spring Quarter is flying by! Next thing you…
Interview with a Phobic
In lieu of an in class midterm examination, my psychology of fear requires an interview of a subject with a phobia with a six page write-up of the interview. This has been quite an interesting assignment. I have very little psychology background knowledge, so I have been doing a little bit of extra work just…
