How embarassing. I saw this nice apartment in a good area of Berkeley for only $1260/month. I called and left a message. Later she calls and tells me that she only has studios. I blatantly point out that she was advertising a one bedroom apartment on homefinders. Afterwards I check…and realize that it was a studio posted after all. GAH. So much for a cheap rent. I would have liked to get that apartment for $1115, but no…my roommate didn\’t want to. *SIGH*

I am back in L-town! After I got back, I hopped back on AIM. Then headed to my other computer to watch two episodes of Six Feet Under (ya know, I am just sadistic like that).

Home sweet home. NOT.

I miss chai tea. :(

Helwo!

*START RAMBLE BECAUSE I HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO AND NOBODY IS ONLINE (OKAY ONLY 6 PEOPLE ARE ONLINE ON MY LIST, QUITE A RARE SITUATION NOW)*

Look! I am in the UCSD library – CLICS (Center for Library and Instructional Services) while my sister is at her biology section. Somehow, I am getting a headache *pops in a motrin* while sitting here, but I haven\’t done anything at all. I \”accidentally\” gave my cold to my sis and she\’s not that happy about it, but nobody would be. It\’s too bad that MMW (the Making of the Modern World class–a requirement for all students from the Eleanor Rooselvelt College) was cancelled today, because that\’s where I would have met most of the people that she usually talks about. Somehow I used up 143 peak minutes since May 15. It must have been because I gave my cell phone number to landlords and prospective roommates. I didn\’t know whether I would still be in Berkeley and I wanted to be sure that they could contact me. Oh and the 20 minutes that Shroom got lost. ;)

*END RAMBLE BECAUSE NAIM WANTS ME TO TALK TO HIM NOW*

You will live in Apartment.
You will drive a red bug.
You will marry Naim and have 5 kids.
You will be a software engineer in New York City.

aaaaaaaaaaah. ;) Oh and yes I did put in legit words in each one.

A DAY LIST!

  • went with my sis to sign her lease with her three other roommates

  • became envious of their cheap, NICE, CLEAN apartment complex

  • ate lunch at Canyon View – waffle piled with strawberries and peaches, smothered with butter, syrup, and whipped cream

  • drank a NAKED lemonade (not a good idea, considering my sore throat)

  • watched Almost Famous on my sis\’ computer

  • discovered that it ended at the 1 hr 18 min mark instead of the 2 hr + mark

  • napped

  • woke up to find that my sis disappeared…started freaking out

  • asked her suitemate where she went

  • she emerged from the bathroom

  • played pool with TOM NOODLE BOI

  • couldn\’t sink a single ball in

  • Tom showed me the correct angle and suddenly I was able to sink four balls in a row including the white ball

  • the streak never occured again

  • met some NorCal people visiting one of my sis\’ friends

  • had a discussion with Wilson about computers and the benefits of Bath and Body lotion – noted line of dialogue \”Lotion makes me skin soft and smooth. What lotion do you use?\” My sis\’ response: \”Uh…I don\’t use any lotion!\”

  • complained about how difficult the Berkeley CS major is…with an EECS major (sense the irony, no? EECS majors don\’t have to worry about their gpa at all!)

  • called Naim

  • went karaoke with my sis\’ friends and their friends (let\’s see if I can name them – Evan, Andrew, Justin, Wilson, Bryan, Steph, John, Kasper)

  • heard Wilson sing Britney Spears – I AM A SLAVE 4 U

  • called Shroom because I figured out that the network over in Irvine had gone down…again…

  • Kasper and John did a good set of Linkin Park songs

  • sang a squeaky Cyndi Lauper – Time After Time and U2 – Without or Without You

    Shroom drove crazily (well not really) back to San Diego so that I could back to my sister\’s place by 8:30 pm, but her friends weren\’t there when we got there. On the way, we saw those funny little signs that showed a picture of a woman, a man and a child holding hands, running. The sign was posted along the signs of the highway – \”CAUTION\”. Ironic, I think, considering that crossing the border like that is illegal. And also, are the vehicles on the highway responsible to look out for people who aren\’t supposed to be crossing the highway in the first place? Now they call us irresponsible…

    The bonfire was actually pretty interesting. I finally got to officially meet the DaweenAddicts Fan club. And they started calling me…RANCH. :p Doreen lit a newspaper on fire and held it like a statue of liberty. We played in the ocean and burned STUFF in the fire. We also played chubbie bunnie (yes, that\’s the picture). Then we also buried my sis\’ friend Josh in the sand. At first, nobody would volunteer. Yet when Lauren (aka one of the founders of the DaweenAddicts Fan Club) asked Josh, he responded, \”HELL YEAH!\”

    And the greek letters for DaweenAddicts Fan Club are…delta alpha phi.
