Weekend was great. All around enjoyed myself. Laid low a bit as my cold flared up, but enjoyed myself too. Saturday night, I went with Hugh to this party at the Treehouse. Overall a good evening. Had a very werid blue drink that tasted stronger than it was. Met a few lovely people as well. [...]

Updates have been infrequent, but I do have news. I found out on Friday that I got accepted into the UCLA Washington DC Internship Program. What does that mean? It means that UCLA will help me land an internship (which could lead to a job) and will house me at the UCDC center for the [...]

It’s sort of hard to believe that its been a year since I started working at Bruin OnLine. With that one year anniversary comes a pay increase. I’m happy to say that I got that pay increase. It’ll kick in on the next paycheck. Very excited about that. It’s not a huge jump, but any [...]

It’s been a while. My apologies. I’ve been a good combination of busy and lazy, all at the same time. Some days, I have done absolutely nothing productive and others, I’ve taken head on, devoting every minute to just working through. That isn’t to say it hasn’t been a blast. Thursday itself was pretty good. [...]

Disclaimer: If your name is Katharine, don’t read. Wow. This evening’s basketball game was amazing. Not just because we won. Not just because we spanked our opponent. Not just because it was USC. Seriously, it was some of the most embarrassing basketball I have ever seen played. Tim Floyd, the Trojan’s head coach got so [...]

The rivalry starts a new round tonight as USC enters UCLA’s Pauley Pavilion. Should be a fun game tonight, though, admittedly, I’m not very into it after seeing that half our team is out on injury. Other than the basketball game, things have been alright. Not a whole lot new. Class has been class. I’ve tried [...]

Conflict. Decision making should never be this hard. Can you ever really analyze something too much? I don’t think so. The problem comes in that over-analyzing is simply a defense mechanism preventing me from going through with it all. Moving forward is the path, no matter which option I choose. It won’t be that hard [...]

Saturday was long day. Really long. Got up way too early to get a priority pass for the basketball game. The basketball game? Yeah, we lost. It really sucked because we outplayed them. They simply outlasted us. Our injuries have caught up with us. When half your team is out, it sort of makes a [...]

The first week of school is now behind me and there’s a lot of stuff going on; much more than I would have otherwise anticipated. Classes seem like they’ll be a real challenge. For that, I am grateful that I am only doing 12 units. To my benefit, I suppose, my TA for my congress [...]

A minor rant, if you will. Big news today in the sports world with Reggie Bush declaring he will enter the NFL draft this spring. Sure, it was highly suspected, but it’s still a big deal. Now, on a day, that has a news story like this, you’d expect this story to make big headlines. [...]
