Recently, I have been preparing for a 10k mile run I am doing with two of my very good UCLA buddies! It’s going to be happening in Hollywood which only makes it a little bit better :). The event is placed in efforts to benefit the Los Angeles Youth Network and LAUSD Beyond The Bell Program….
Disneyland
They say Disneyland is the happiest place on Earth, but what they don’t tell you is that this is completely and totally true. I went to both D-Land and California Adventure this past weekend, and my day there was pretty close to perfect. I went with a sizable group from UCLA – there were about 30 of…
Dorm Dinner
In what is becoming a quarterly tradition, Bruin Ambassadors had their final meet of the quarter in De Neve Dining Hall. (Side note: Bruin Ambassadors is the undergraduate admissions program I work for). For those of us who no longer live on the hill, the younger ambassadors pull together enough swipes to feed all of…
UCLA Student Athletes
As a student at UCLA you are always exposed to people on campus who have very different lives from your own. One large segment of this population at UCLA are student athletes. They are just as much a student as anybody else at UCLA but often they are looked upon as something else by the…
What happens when 800 Degrees meets the Hammer Museum…
Last weekend was the best weekend I’ve had so far this winter quarter!! As I finished the second midterms for all my classes, I was finally able to relax and enjoy my weekend without worrying about another round of midterms coming!! 🙂 I got a chance to visit the Hammer Museum, which is right…
Princeton Ly – Linsanity
This might be coming a bit more than a few weeks late, but how great of a story is Jeremy Lin!? I currently live with three other hoopheads, and my apartment have been following his career with much interest for years now. From his stint with the Warriors and the Rockets to his recent meteoric…
Week 9…Work Picks Up
Currently, UCLA is about to go into Week 9 of Winter Quarter. It seems like this quarter has come and gone, yet it is not over. For me, I have two more weeks left of intense work as I am going to be taking my finals during Week 10 of instruction. Time is ticking. In…
Touring with UCLA Chorale, part II
I mentioned in an earlier post that I would be traveling with the UCLA Chorale this past weekend to Arizona for a joint performance of the Verdi Requiem. And what an incredible weekend it was! Even before our scheduled departure time at 1pm on Friday, members were congregating outside the choir room in Schoenberg at…
Farmer’s Market
Last weekend I went to a farmers market in Hollywood. Los Angeles has tons of farmers markets. I think you could find one to attend almost any day of the week. Even Westwood has one on Thursdays. This particular one is nestled a few blocks from the infamous star walk. There is one street that…
Saffron Rose
Last Friday, I went for a walk with my friend Renn into Westwood to grab some ice cream. I had been to Yogurtland before, and of course I had been to Diddy Riese, so we decided to try something new. My other friend had told me about a Persian ice cream shop a couple of…
