January 2018

1st January 2018

We watched Star Wars today. It's been forever since I've watched a Star Wars movie. Regardless, I still enjoyed it. It was also the first time I've been to a theater in the US.

Cousin and I wanted to to get boba for one last time. But it was close. :(

 I leave Bakersfield tomorrow, and I am not ready to let go and be thrown back into the reality of going to college again. 21 units, 4 classes, a 7.30am and 10.20pm class. I am not prepared.

2nd January 2018

I left today.

Some moos on the way back to Cupertino on the train ride.


7th January 2018

I did a whole bunch of things the past few days.

I watched a bunch of movies on my laptop. All of Rush Hour, both Kingsman movies and the Prince of Egypt. Bought them all on YouTube. I figured it would be a good way to kill time while waiting for college to start.

Went to TJ Maxx to hunt for more nail polish. Kinda went crazy on the nail polish arrangement.

Also remember that penguin toy I wanted in Bakersfield? I got it off Amazon, but it was a LOT smaller than expected....

...not gonna return it tho.






First week of Winter 2018

College started today. I have math class everyday at 7.30am, then English Writing at 8.30am, then Physics at 9.30am. I'm basically done for the day by 10.30am except for Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I have Chemistry from 6pm to 10.30pm (but we usually end before 10pm). It's a huge pain in the butt, having to travel to and fro school on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Moreover, it's as cold as jingle balls at 7am in the morning when I'm trying to cycle to school - and also when I am cycling back during night time. In the middle of winter. 

The only pro to all of this night classes shebang is getting to enjoy the school in its nighttime stillness. Huge contrast to how the college is during the daytime.

How the PE quad looks like at night.


How a normal Chemistry lab goes by. I believe this was the precipitation experiment we did.



26th January 2018

So I met this Singaporean girl, Breen, in my Chemistry class few weeks ago and she invited me to hang out and study at her apartment. Apartment life have always been interesting to me, but truth be told, sharing a two-bedroom apartment with 5 other people doesn't make a conducive environment for me. The visit definitely made me more appreciative for my current living situation. Although I am paying roughly $200 more than Breen, I have my own room, get to use all of my landlord's kitchen necessities and have a neat house to come home to.


Her living room. That mattress in the corner belongs to one of her flatmates. What isn't shown in this picture is the pile of shoes by the entrance behind me.


Their kitchen.
