thoughts from an incoming UCLA freshman

<p>hellogoodbyee; whatever! i didn’t get as sick as the people on my floor/in my building. placebo effect ftw.</p>

<p>dear cc,
i hate wednesdays. i have the most classes, followed by covel tutoring in the afternoon. i’m really tired, but i have to do reading for hist2c. i don’t know how much i’ll get done, hopefully i can finish it. i have just hist2c disc and lec tomorrow so that’s good.</p>

<p>more for later,
jeyday</p>

<p>Dear Diary,</p>

<p>I love Plato Society. To other students who are seriously in the CHP, do Plato Society. Seriously. Everybody is so sweet and supportive. You’re not graded, so no competition. The people are there to LEARN. They’re taking the time out of their busy lives to LEARN. It’s really ****ing refreshing, getting away from the competitive, GPA-obsessed cesspool that is South Campus.</p>

<p>Work is awesome, too. Tiring and tedious, but pretty damn cool. I had a couple of *<strong><em>ty days, and my classes are *</em></strong>ing me up the ass with a two-liter coke bottle, but life is swell :)</p>

<p>Always look on the bright side of life,
Me</p>

<p>plato society sounded really great other than I was scared I would be unable to lead a discussion. maybe I’ll try soon…</p>

<p>dear diary,
currently, there are about 6 people in my room… and i’m trying to finish up history2c reading like jeyday… ehh I don’t mind… but getting distracted… w/w :/</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>My discussion was a great success, and super fun, too. Everybody is super supportive, and eager to chime in. It’s very unlike a professor lecturing in a hall.</p>

<p>How many sessions have you been to? Glad it’s working well for you, mon petit chou.</p>

<p>It’s a 14-week thing. The first two weeks were during week 5 and 6 of session C, actually. Nobody chose the topic for our third week, so that was incredibly lucky :slight_smile: Then my presentation was last Wednesday, week four. The 14th week will be finals week.</p>

<p>dear CC,</p>

<p>why is eggert/cs131 so hard??</p>

<p>^ Because God hates you.</p>

<p>Dear CC,
History 2c discussion was pretty good… Today I have to attend a UCLA LIVE event for arts and archt… fun… :/</p>

<p>^yeah i agree i think today’s was one of the better lectures. i was actually interested in what he was saying and wrote down most it.</p>

<p>dear cc,</p>

<p>i’m having some guy problems. my roomies told me that one of the guys on my hall that i’ve become very close friends with likes me. i don’t want to be in a relationship right now… but he’s really nice and sweet… but i don’t want to…
…</p>

<p>i was up until 3am last night reading the novel for hist2c. i completely forgot about the articles from the coursereader. and what happens? the TA tells us that we will discuss the novel next week and all we did was discuss the articles. sigh</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Chances are, he might not want to be in a relationship right now, either. Who wants to **** up their freshman year by tethering themselves down? Go ahead and keep on being his friend, and forget that your roomie ever said whatever she said. And update us if anything else develops.</p>

<p>definitely listen to Pink! she knows what she’s talking about! i did the whole first year, first quarter b/f thing and it was a disaster and totally ruined first quarter for me…</p>

<p>well i guess since i have a flirty personality he took it the wrong way or whatever but i act that way with most guys haha. he’s my friend and stuff i mean throughout these past three weeks i’ve been with the same group of people so we’ve all got to know each other so well. they’re my roomies and a couple other guys from my hall. </p>

<p>so today i mustered up the courage to have him in here when it was just me in the room, and told him how i feel and i rather have him be my friend and all…</p>

<p>he’s disappointed but whatevers.</p>

<p>Why’d you do that? </p>

<p>ckings, I’m in an LDR that’s been going on since senior year of HS :stuck_out_tongue: But dwm ruined her first quarter, too. You can probably search for her posts, Jey.</p>

<p>ckings, i know my roomie is going through that problem right now…</p>

<p>jeyday you definitely shouldn’t done that, if i read your posts correct you just don’t want to be distracted but not because you don’t like the guy… why ruin it for him? he likes you so why not just hang around and see if you’ll grow to like the guy? but now you kinda crushed his hopes :(</p>

<p>pink, because if i didn’t talk to him i would just be leading him on</p>

<p>kick, he’s a nice guy but i don’t want to be in a relationship with him at all. that will ruin our friendship and i don’t want to lose that he’s like a big brother to me haha. i don’t know it just doesn’t feel right and he was going into it so fast… i definitely don’t like him “in that way” it’s just really weird to me</p>

<p>oh i see, yeah then it was prolly right to make it clear if you didn’t have any intensions of anything with him…</p>

<p>Interesting move. Anyway, how many weeks has it been? 2? 3? It’s not like his heart will have broke much. He’ll learn to deal with it.</p>
