If you’re from Southern California, you’ve probably heard of or even played water polo. If not, you’re definitely missing out. Water polo is probably one of the easiest games to watch and appreciate – a very low barrier to entry, if you will, compared to football’s arcane regulations or the plodding pace of baseball. I…
Time Management and Procrastination
To begin, time management is a common problem among students on any college campus. Students must divvy their time between classes, extra-curricular activities, studying, and sometimes working. Let’s not forget sleeping. Outside of the academia of college life, students must delegate time to spend with friends and family as well. From what I’ve learned over…
Here’s to brother Bruin, brother Bruin, brother Bruin
I know I have mentioned this one too many times, but it seems to be a topic of discussion that I can’t help but to gush about. BRUIN PRIDE! I have spent three full years here at UCLA and am about to be finishing up my fourth and final year in just a couple quarters….
Westwood Live!
On Thursday night I went to Westwood LIVE, which was essentially a giant block party that was filled with delicious food, fun art, and spectacular music (there were performances by previous winners of Spring Sing!). It started at 6, and I got there around 6:40. Usually, events at UCLA are ridiculously over-crowded and you need…
A glimpse into Phy Sci 107
Last spring, I successfully completed all my science lower division course work. This means, this fall I began taking classes that were specific for my major, physiological science, instead of just life science core classes. There are about nine life science majors which all have the same pre-requisite classes. Most students take the first two…
Greasy Spoons
At the risk of making myself look like a ridiculous glutton, here’s another post on food. I think there is a soft spot in every guy’s heart for “greasy spoons”. You know what I’m talking about, right? Every town has one – I bet there were a few within walking distance of your high school…
“Water Is Rising”: A peek into climate change
One of the best things about UCLA is UCLA Live!, hands down. It brings all sorts of performances to our very own Royce Hall auditorium, one of the premier concert halls in the nation. I have attended contemporary ballets, cultural programs, plays, and also performed onstage with the UCLA Choral Department for our quarterly galas….
Quarter System…and How Fast it Goes
It’s Fall Quarter and here, we are about to start Week 4. One of the fabulous things that I love about the quarter system is how fast it goes. Some might be afraid of it, but hey, I love the challenge. It seems as if just yesterday we were all just getting adjusted to back-to-school…
Gloria Steinem, y’all
Ok, before I tell you about hearing the ~fab~ Gloria Steinem speak, I will give you some background about my situation both in general and immediately prior to the event. First off, I was recently accepted as a Daily Bruin intern for the Opinion section – yay! right? Well, mostly right. Unfortunately, as a member of…
Princeton Ly – Thoughts on Liberal Arts
It’s interesting to think that when UCLA was founded, it was mainly tasked with producing educated professionals – think teachers and accountants. Nowadays, UCLA has morphed into a sprawling public research university, with the bulk of its graduates receiving degrees from the College of Letters and Science. Education and Accounting have been regulated to minors,…
