I failed. See you next year!

Hail the King
Finally hit up a crab shack with some friends after I finished my LAST FINAL EVER. I was sharing food with Larry and he can handle more spice than I can so I had to suffer a bit. The king crab leg was bombalicious though!!
Long Live the Legend
So sad to hear that UCLA's legendary basketball coach died. People decorated the Bruin statue in front of Wooden Gym in his memory. Thanks for all the wins, coach!
Work Place
Friends studying at the library where I work. The bottom floor has been renovated so the study areas are pretty nice. But who studies at the library anymore...
Chopped
I borrowed a cook book from my neighbor to try to change my daily meal of spam and rice. But who has time to mince lemon zest?
Congratulations
Newlyweds Alvina and Tim.
My friend Alvina got married in Mill Valley outside of SF. Her favorite color was orange so the theme used citrus colors. Love that bouquet. And that smile. (:

Jurassic Park
Red velvet cupcake with cream cheese frosting from Chiffono's.
A small bakery in Fresno always brings me good memories and inspirations. And can't forget the owner who looks like the guy from Jurassic Park who gets eaten by a velociraptor.

Face Block
A group of friends outside Schoenberg Music Hall.
Our friend plays for the UCLA orchestra and we try to support him by attending his concerts. From the picture you can tell he is very appreciative...

As Usual
My laptop and its owner in her natural state.
A typical weekday night means messy hair and oversized sweater. Awesome. (:

One for the Road
Stephanie and I at ICA Banquet.
She's been my discipler/mentor for 2-3 years and now she's doing long-term missions work in Asia. Remind me to pray for her (:

Six Degrees
Far East Movement at Ackerman Grand Ballroom.
Mr. Dino's cousin is a rapper. He and his group is pretty ridiculous. But catchy. Since the group is based in LA we try to catch some of his shows when we can. This one was at UCLA for free. I saw a couple familiar faces... plus a bunch of white boys rapping every word of the songs. Hilarious.

In Process
Pencil drawing of Leona Lewis.
I worked on the drawing some more but I'm getting discouraged because of my lack of skill. Hopefully I get better...?

New Home
Plant from Cal Poly SLO Open House.
I got this free plant to see if I could grow it to its full potential but I don't really know what it is so I can't tell if this is how tall it'll get. It started in a little styrofoam coffee cup but I had to re-pot it because the roots were getting crazy.

Stuck On You
Personal collection of stickers.
When I was a kid I had this wimpy collection of stickers. My friends and I would trade or show eachother our collections and I always envied the other girls' stickers. I even tried making my own (using those blank sticker name tags and markers!). Now that I'm older and I can buy those stickers I've always wanted my collection is quite... cute (: I decided that I'm going to put them in an album and attempt to organize them. Then I can share duplicates with people (:

Cherry Tomato
Red drums at UCLA China Ensemble Concert. I had to attend the concert for a class. I couldn't keep my eyes off the redness of the drums.
Spring Portraits

The residents of apartment 205 at Spring Sing. I posted up the "blooper" shot because I thought it reflected us better.
Unending Surprise
A few of us surprised one of my apartment mates (aparties?) for her birthday. Then another group surprised her the next day. The next day she was surprised again by people who couldn't make the first surprise... party everyday?
Makeshift Grill
I randomly stumbled upon a recipe for yakitori and decided to try it out. Not bad considered I don't have a grill at my apartment. (:
Return of the Big Screen

Back to LA means back to the big screen and video games. I guess trying to study here isn't an option either...
The Second Time Around

Study cards for a midterm on Tuesday. Going home for the weekend before a midterm is not a good idea...
A Different Route

Mr. Dino and I drove home to Fresno Friday night but took a different route than we regularly do. There are tunnels on the 5!
Deja Vu

We went to watch Iron Man 2 at its midnight showing with a bunch of people from ICA. It was very nostalgic. Contact.
12 Bar Blues
I tried these random rice balls from the Nijiya market. They were so cute...the taste was...interesting.
The Guy From CSI

Went out to a cute place called Lemonade with apartmentmate. I think I love blueberry mint lemonade now.
Stigma
P introduced these kids to the craziness that is Trauma Center. Everyone who plays that game seems to have the same face expression...
Gradient

I picked up drawing/sketching again because I got inspired from some talented friends. I'm a newb but once I feel more confident maybe I'll post some up (:
Odwalla
The Hong Kong Student Society at UCLA has a night market event that mimics the street vendors at night in Hong Kong. Unfortunately I had work, but fortunately I have awesome friends that snuck in food for me!
2 For Novel

Monday nights a few of us are temporarily homeless due to the multiple Bible Studies and fellowship meetings our apartment mates host at our respective apartments. We ended up eating and studying at Novel Cafe in Westwood until we could return to have our own meeting of the sort.
Hot Air

I don't know if I ever shared what my room looks like. Well this is a small part of it. It's our quaint television that does not have cable (because we don't want to pay 80 dollars for TV!). But we do have a DVD player and a VGA cable! (:
Hi De Ho
Every year UCLA holds the Los Angeles Festival of Books. It was so crowded on campus with loads of babies and puppies!
Second Try
I made use of the hugemongous bag of frozen berries and made a cobbler. The recipe is from Williams-Sonoma so you know it's delicious! Top it off with vanilla ice cream and it's over (:
Windex

These friends have been visiting me often at work. It makes time go by faster (:
P.s. The reason why it's so blurry/foggy is because they are behind a bullet-proof (supposedly) glass that separates the cashier window and the public.
Latin Expert
There's this little boy that constantly wanders in to our room to play on the keyboard while we're studying. And he's supposed to be studying too.
