Hopefully I'll have him again at some point in the next couple years cause he's just plain awesome. And also Dr. Geller for Psychology was a great professor. It was definitely a life lesson everyday with him. I plan on popping into one of his lectures some day and just listen. Actually now that I think about it, I liked every single one of my professors. They were all so good! Least Favorite: If anything, I despised my TA for Vector Geometry. That was just a horrible experience.

    35.What Was Your Favorite Course? Least Favorite?
    --Favorite: Calculus. I was good at it and I got an A =) Probably my only A all year, haha. And it helped that I already took it in high school so yay for that! Least Favorite: Engineering Education (1024). Worst class of my life. I haven't learned anything in that class, and I'm trying to pull a C-, which is kinda sad. Oh and I have that final on wednesday. Great.

    36.Fall Asleep In Any Classes?
    --I think I almost did in a couple classes. Good thing I didn't have any early classes all year =)

    --nope

    38.Argue With Any Professors?
    --nope

    39.What Time Did You Get Up Most Mornings?
    --like 10:30AM. Rarely any earlier than that.

    40.Ever Wake Up To Eat Breakfast?
    --HAHA NO. I think I did that ONCE. And that was on a snow day cause I wanted to get up early and take pictures of the pretty snow... so I had breakfast with Stephanie and ended up going back to sleep when I got back to my dorm, hehe

    41.What Was Your Favorite Cafeteria Food?
    -- like everything 0_0 I go to Virginia Tech! It's what we're known for. I would have to say that the London Broil is amazzingggg. And the fries at West End are pretty good too.

    42.What Did You Do For Thanksgiving?
    --I had to be at school for both weekends cause it was the Duke game (aka coldest game of my life) and the UVA game. But I was home for the middle, and I just hung out with family and friends and ate food like no other. It was great =)

    43.What About Winter Break?
    -- Went home, chilled with family and friends, xmas dinner with both sides of the family, MIAMI FOR ORANGE BOWL, hung out with friends, emo for a week cause everyone was already gone and I hit a car -_-

    44.Spring Break?
    -- just hung out at home with family and friends =) it was nice.

    45.Who Did You Miss The Most?
    -- I was too busy to miss people (does that sound mean?) but I guess I missed my parents and my brothers... and my dogs. And I GUESS I would've missed Stephanie Liao (yea, i hope you read this) if I didn't see/talk to her everyday online anyways hahahahaaha

    46.Did You Grow Apart From Your Old Friends?

    --Eat viet food. Get Chipotle. Unpack. Get ready for summer classes =( Oh, and see friends!

    49.Learn Anything New About Yourself?
    --Oh yea, definitely. I don't even know where to begin. I think it was a pretty gradual thing, and I had to take it one day at a time. But I think it was all for the better =)

    50.Are You Gonna Miss Your Freshman Year?
    --Oh yea. Definitely. It was definitely a completely new experience and I'm sad that I'm not going to be a newbie anymore =( It was fun trying out and experiencing new stuff everyday! Now I'm going to be a sophomore and... that's just boring.

  • byebye freshman year

    ... and hello xanga?

    haha I remember when I used to be obsessed with xanga. I can't believe that I actually thought my life was interesting enough that people wanted to read about it on a daily basis, lol =D

    So let's give xanga another try.

    Freshman year is almost over. And I'm so sad to leave it. Virginia Tech has been amazing, and I'm so glad that I got pretty involved; I had marching band, VSA, Theta Tau, kinda wushu but not really (I swear I'll get into that more next semester!! if I have time...) and 7th floor WAJ!!!

    College was definitely nothing I imagined it to be; it was both worse and better. I did things I never thought I would ever do, and never did the things I actually planned on doing. I've made some stupid decisions and some...unexpected decisions. But hey, that's what college is about, right? You surprise yourself and that's the fun part!

    But is sophmore year going to be the same? I'm not gonna be the innocent, clueless freshman anymore. Any type of leneniancy is gonna be gone and I'm most definitely going to have to step it up. But at least this time I'm a little bit more prepared? Who knows, I might surprise myself again next year =)

    And here comes SUMMER TIME 09!! Just 1 1/2 weeks! Let's hope it's gonna be a productive/good/memorable one!

    P.S. STEPHANIE LIAO ROCKS MY SOCCKKKKKKKS!

  • why hello!!

    so yess... its been a long time since i've last been here. i was reading back on some old posts and geez, i sure had one boring life. or at least, i only wrote about the boring part -_- i mean, does anyone really honestly care about what homework and what tests i had to study for? wow i was a retard =) but it was still fun to read back at them.

    i dunno if i'll continue using xanga but its fun to periodically update it.

    lets see... i'm currently using my new laptop to write this =) i'm trying to explore it a little before i go to college...

    hm, now i see why i never wrote anything interesting in my xanga entries cause its kinda weird to be posting all this to the public o_O where people can read this.... i dunno... that kinda bothers me.

  • hmm... i'm bored.. and.. does anyone ever use xanga anymore? lol, i was reading some really old entires and geez, i sounded retarded.

    eh. nothing new is happening anymore. life is a like cycle now. Just school.... school school school. Such fun -_- can't wait until summer! and senior year! wow, i'm graduating next year. How exciting =D

    So yup, this may be my last time updating xanga ever again. i doubt anyone is reading this anyways -_- maybe if i get super bored i can write in this xanga thing once in a while

    until next time!!
