I feel another blog failure coming. I don't know why, but I just get really tired of writing. Maybe I need something to motivate me to write. 

Today was the first day of my last quarter at UCLA. Last quarter was supposed to be my last, but i I decided that I'm staying another quarter, not only because I was lazy and didn't want to study anymore, but also I didn't want to shorten the "best years" of my life. I think I made the right decision. Another stressful factor right now is getting into classes... sigh. Please let me in to Math 117. The professor was so hilarious -- Professor Enderton is the bomb! He was so funny when he proved the well-ordering theorem. I think I completely understand the idea of why there is the least element in any set of numbers. Booyah! Also while he was going over the inductive reasoning of proof, I was so happy because it's my favorite form of proof (maybe because it's so simple and easy!)

I actually went to another class before... Environmental studies/urban planning something. OMG I felt so lost in that class. Sure, I have the passion for saving the environment and want to be more aware of those issues, but I don't think I'm up to par with everything else who have made a conscious decision in their lifestyle to become more "green." I still waste paper and prefer to drive around than walk around. Time to make a Prius purchase? Not yet, though.

I want to learn to meditate. Kioshi was talking about the importance of meditation and I was so lost. How can you sit down and try to meditate without thinking about all the complicated things going on in life? I sorta tried to meditate today... and didn't work because I started thinking about all the stressors in my life -- then realized that I make life way harder than it actually is. 

So the goal of spring quarter is to make my life simple and stop stressing out... because there's no reason to.

Spring break was SO MUCH FUN... can't believe it's ending already. Eunjung came all the way fom Vancouver to see me <3 I felt so so so loved. She came on Tuesday, when I was still taking finals, which I felt incredible bad for, and we hung out in LA until Friday. It was seriously so much fun. I've never "partied" this hard, so I think my body had a difficult time. We spent Friday @ Stanford (MY FUTURE SCHOOL! HAHAHA) and I was super motivated to try harder in school -- too bad I only have one quarter left. I wish I started visiting schools like that early on. My grades would have been better, perhaps.

Maybe I should write a detailed update on my spring break when I get back to LA. I'm back home and too tired to do anything.

22?

So I am now 22 as of last Thursday. I thought my 21st birthday was kinda big, so I wanted a quiet birthday... or a "normal" Thursday. I celebrated my 22nd at the library at 12 am. It was cool - think about it, when will I ever get to start my birthday at the library if not this year? Then I woke up for morning prayer, went to class, and had a event for Net Impact. The speaker series topic was regarding what businesses can do to ensure environmental sustainability. We had such a good turnout. The sponsored pizza from D'Amores was surprisingly good. A lot of things went well. I ended up at the library again at night. Friends came and surprised me and we went to Palomino's celebrations. I got my north face jacket now as a birthday present, so I'm really happy! 

Time for church... another normal Sunday. I have so much stuff to do...
