10 updates from Berkeley

So I realized that I'm farthest one from all you people, especially you San Diego-ers! =(

I like lists.
Here's a list: 10 Facts about Berkeley

1. Squirrels here are FEARLESS.
2. I've never met so many people so EXCITED about studying. They even made up chants for their favorite study places in the library. (Mo Moffit, Mo Profit) (When you go Stacks, You never go back)
3. I walked across the Asian Ghetto the other day and saw all of Walnut (people) there.
4. Homeless people are EVERYWHERE.
5. Speaking of homeless people, I was sitting on the grass one day reading. A homeless man comes walking by and his dog drags him over right next to me. We start chatting for awhile, and he explains how he's going to bike to Washington DC to raise money for child slaves in South America or something like that. I ended up giving him 5 bucks and half a granola bar.
6. I'm vehemently battling freshmen 15 by walking up 8 flights of stairs.
7. Being the oldest UC campus... this place is OLD. I swam in a pool and gym that seirously seemed to be built in the 1800s.
8. I'm taking a class called "The Simpsons and Philosophy."
9. GO BEARS.

Berkeley! I hope your'e having a fantastic time up there Sandra!

Oh don't worry. There are so many people here who study study and study. But at the same time, they party on Tuesdays, Thursday, Fridays, and Saturdays. We have a study lounge down on first floor.

I'm also battling the freshmen 15. I go running on the track almost every Saturday night because I don't party. I HAVENT' BEEN TO A SINGLE PARTY YET. Woot woot. (: I've talked about going....but I'm too good. I think I'll meet the guys through my party friends. We'll see.

Other than that, cannot wait to see you again Sandra! Go Bear. Go Trojans. Go Tritons. Boo Bruins. Haha.

And SHUTUPPP. I KNOW TROJANS LOST ON THURSDAY. AGAINST OREGON STATE. THAT WAS NOT OUR NIGHT. BUT HOME GAMES THESE NEXT TWO WEEKS. CANNOT WAIT! (: FIGHT ON EVERYONE!
