It was a memorable week at UCLA. Finals week was filled with many people studying late into the night; luckily, I was not one of these people. I was able to finish early and spent Finals week relaxing and slowly moving out of my dorm. It’s hard to imagine that it was only a mere…
Botanical Gardens
Here I am at the end of my Freshman year at UCLA. I am studying for finals, finishing up projects, and eating a ton of junk food. As this year closes, I reflect back on my experiences thus far. Sure I have done really awesome things and made totally amazing friends, but I think my…
Finals Week at UCLA
A week before finals week, I unfortunately got sick with Strep throat. That same week I had two papers do, a project, and also a final (back to back days). So I had to deal with deadlines and sickness all at the same time. Thankfully for me though, I had almost finished with all of…
Spring Quarter
I love UCLA, but by our tenth week of school during spring quarter I am completely burnt out. However spring quarter is always the best. The sun is always shining, there are endless outdoor activities to take part in, and best of all spring quarter is followed by summer. As soon as I finished I…
Collective de-stressing at UCLA
At UCLA, there is a myriad of fun traditions that showcase our unity and Bruin spirit on the campus. One of my favorites is the Midnight Yell that takes place throughout every finals week, starting Sunday. This is the week at the end of each quarter during which students are feeling pressured and apprehensive about…
Summer, is that you knocking at my door?
To most Bruins, 10th week is the last moments one has to kick back, relax, and reflect upon the wonders of the year in passing as a UCLA student before finals week hits. However, for some of us unlucky souls, it is but a reminder of the 9 weeks before. This past quarter I took…
10th Week = Finals Week
We have just finished 10th week at UCLA, which is a momentous occasion, especially given that it’s Spring Quarter. This means our next break is… SUMMER!! This is generally what pulls most Bruins through the last stretch of finals week. However, I was extremely lucky this quarter (unlike Winter Quarter) and all of my finals…
those are some WAC finals
Finals are currently the only thing on my mind. Most people assume that a final is a written test composed of multiple choice, short answers, or in class essays. However, in the World Arts and Cultures (WAC) department, professors measure a students knowledge differently. Our finals are often composed of reflection essays, projects, and physical…
Let Your Voice Be Heard
Last week was busy and filled with exams, projects, and papers. All of this stress has made it nearly impossible for me to get out of my study cave and get onto campus. The only time I was outside was when I was walking to and from class. As I walked through the sunken gardens at…
Sunny, Beautiful LA
Memorial Day weekend has come and gone. It ended on a beautiful day with beautiful weather. One of the best things I love about LA is the weather. Lately, it’s been nice and sunny. I returned today to UCLA after a 3-day stay at home. I have to admit that I missed UCLA a bit….
