Updates

Flight is going to be on May 4 (Thursday), arriving afternoon on the following day. Will be coming back to California Sept 1.

Housing is going to be settled by housemates*. Having said that, I won't be putting a deposit for on-campus housing. Just because it would be a lot cheaper to live out, with more space

School has come to a point where everything feels like it's not going too well. If you know me well enough, you'll probably understand that it is normally unnecessary stress that I impose on myself.


*About the housemates: there are currently two options. First being that I will be moving in with 3 other girls (if the other girl decides not to). Second option is for me to move in with one other girl (one of the 3 girls from option 1). Headache. Argh

Anyway, with school, I have been getting less than desirable grades. It is not like I am failing or anything. Like I mentioned earlier, it's probably just me, trying to score all the way through. Anyway, I've got to try to cheer up because it almost always makes a huge difference in the work that I produce.

Pre-registration for classes next semester is tomorrow. I have decided to add in another studio on top of the 3 fixed ones (GD 1, Type 1 and Tools1*). There is a possibility that I will test out of Tools 1 and register for Tools 2 instead. I will have to sit for a test first week of school (remind me to write to the Chair so that she can help me contact the teacher that I will need to meet for the test). In the event that Tools 2 is full, I will try getting in a screen printing class because it is also a GD req. UNLESS they allow me to substitute the GD with something else, 1 will have 4 studios (including "Interface" for Interdisciplinary studio) and a Media history class. Otherwise, I'll just drop off the other waived out GD class and take another Visual Studies. Very excited for the line up, especially with GD and Interface.

Got to go to class

Later

p/s: I made curry noodles enough to feed 20 people and still have leftovers :P

printing

i accidentally printed the whole paper (7 pages) in color (.60 each)!!!! ARGHHHH!!! I indirectly wasted like 3 bucks! Need to be more careful, less careless, blar blar blar

OK. I'm irritated of many things

Going to stop

Bye

blarg blarg blarg

that's all that I have to say for now... SOOOO sick of writing papers

Sigh

The end

book

why is it that the record is still under me when I've returned the book?!?!?! ARGH!

Headache

So... theres this whole refund thing going on for the housing. Regardless of when I come back, I'm not going to get a full refund unless my housemates can find housing before a certain date in July. So should I come back early anyway? Or should I just stay until Sept 1? It's going to be the same price regardless. Then, there's this dilemma on purchasing the flight because it lands at SFO at 10.00pm <-- take a taxi? Or stay in the airport until next morning? BLARGH! I'm going to do hw!

Monterey

Some pictures from yesterday's trip. More on fb

Ciao

forgot to upload this delicious looking meal :)

Yum yum

My curry noodles' broth

Katie's pita bread pizza



I'd say that this isn't a bad start at all, for spring break! Had fried banana with ice cream, as well as some other flavors of ice cream too! YUM!

Laters!

I'm burned out

From ridiculous group mates.
And the fact that its going to be the same group of people again.
For another 3 weeks.

Why??!

Later

===

Not going to Tahoe.
Will be recuperating around here for most of my Spring Break

Still can't get over the disappointment from the grade.

I need to move on.

4d

KBAI

Wee wung wung

Listening to| Rachmaninov
Mood| Brain on Cloud 9 - can't exactly feel anything

Just had my art history test an hour ago. I don't know. If you asked me, it was a 50-50 because it was essay questions. It sort of reminded me of the world religion class that I had with Mr. V few years ago. Nevertheless, hoping for the best. To trash with the cave paintings and et cetera. I went back to the whole sleep-wake up-sleep pattern during the glory days of SPM. HAH! I think it worked somewhat. And I "inked" the edge of my pillow. Yikes!

Now, I am going to have to work on my paper and mood board that is due tomorrow. Maybe a little prep for critique tomorrow with the cups and the mood board. Then, probably try and get started with 4D since it does feel like it's editing is going to be a pain.

Note to self. Got to call SL, meet with advisor tomorrow/the day after to plan.

ate too much carrots and etc at my teachers house... I don't think I wanna eat dinner LOL

Almost

end of the mid-terms... (with the exception of art history)

So far so good for the other classes, well, except for the disappointment with the A- for my modern art midterms. Anyway, I've heard from my 4D teacher that I've been the only one who has successfully obtained a 100% for all my projects thus far. Just lacking in some other areas that were meant to encourage me to improve (funny conversation on this one). And like mentioned earlier, an A+ standing for 3D as well. As for diversity studio, I was told that I was doing well in class (not exactly sure what this means, but I'm sure that it won't be a bad thing).

yi ling, for you :D

I might be going to Tahoe next weekend! Great start for a spring break :)

Here are some photos from the glazed materials

I feel a thunderstorm above my head

The end

a MINUS

I want to go cry at one corner of my room - after I finish my homework and get back to my room T_T

Adios

It's monday!

This, I bought from a store at Downtown Berkeley with my friend. I have taken other pictures of a farmers market, as well as a flee market in Berkeley area with my DSLR and will upload it later. Of course, I took a picture of my frozen yogurt too, yummy! This jacket is VERY WARM :)



This is a "ticket" for ice-skating session. Fell down twice, on my knees. It's got bruises all over right now :( Nevertheless, it was fun!



This is my dinner tonight. Since I bought rice wine, I had that all over the noodles. Yummy! I am beginning to think that dad's secret ingredient is rice wine cause it tasted almost the same as the ones he made. Ingredients include Napa Cabbage, Fish Balls, garlic, and Spring Onions (I bought this for fried rice last night <-- forgot to take picture, was very delicious- I cooked for 6-7 people! :O) Seasoned it with a lil bit of salt, soy sauce, and rice wine :)



Today, I also went to buy the flu medicine tablet. Costs more then 20 bucks. Heartache! :((((( On the other hand, I've had good remarks from my teacher from another class. Almost perfect score :) But could have done better :(

===

Cups have been glazed and are ready to fire. Alas, the final product will be "displayed" here. Tried to make a few more, but I think that I lost the patience, having done multiples over the last month. The repetitive thing that I posted up earlier has been removed from the klin, and it looked absolutely amazing. Will take a high-resolution picture some other day :) I'm sure all of you will like it!!! :)

===

More homework for 4D, 3D and history papers, and diversity studio papers :O GANBARRO~!!!

===

Results for midterm test will be posted tomorrow :O

===

Midterm test for Art History in 1 week - Mesopotamian, Lascaux, Egyptian, Hindu, Buddhism, Zen, Taoism, Confucianism, ... all in one test, how fun!

OK BYE!
