Spring Quarter Week 1
This has to have been one of the busiest Week 1s so far!
- Monday: Class + work all day.
- Tuesday: I had an 8 am lab…but the same day I got off of the wait list for night lab so I had to head back to campus after work to go to the night lab and tell the TA that I already went to lab -____-
- Wednesday: Class + work + research workshops
- Thursday: guess who has a 6:30am shift every week? Guess who regrets submitting a 6:30am availability? Class + then lunch with Stephanie, Ashley, Mareena, & Jessica to catch up :) Then a review session that night. Yes, only week 1 and I’m already going to review sessions.
- Friday: Morning interview. I’m going to start volunteering at the hospital again! Class + had to get my work shift covered because I have to go to discussion I missed this morning. Came back to the apartment to take a nap. Watched The Hunger Games at Irvine Spectrum later that night with my roommate, Sisilia!
I came back home for the weekend. Celebrated Easter by going to Easter Vigil Saturday night. Had a very lazy Easter Sunday so I came back to Irvine early so I could buy groceries for the rest of the week and get started on homework. I don’t know what to think of Spring Quarter so far, but I already see myself becoming extremely busy with school, work, and volunteering.
- Promise Nothing
Just do what you most enjoy doing.
Hidden benefit: You will always over-deliver.- Offer Nothing
Just share what you have with those who express an interest in it.
Hidden benefit: Takes the pressure off of wanting other people to see you as valuable or important.- Expect Nothing
Just enjoy what you already have. It’s plenty.
Hidden benefit: You will realize how complete your life is already.- Need Nothing
Just build up your reserves and your needs will disappear.
Hidden benefit: You boundaries will be extended and filled with space.- Create Nothing
Just respond well to what comes to you.
Hidden benefit: Openness.- Hype Nothing
Just let quality sell by itself.
Hidden benefit: Trustability.- Plan Nothing
Just take the path of least resistance.
Hidden benefit: Achievement will become effortless.- Learn Nothing
Just let your body absorb it all on your behalf.
Hidden benefit: You will become more receptive to what you need to know in the moment.- Become No One
Just be more of yourself.
Hidden benefit: Authenticity.- Change Nothing
Just tell the truth and things will change by themselves.
Hidden benefit: Acceptance.

Spring Break (Friday-Monday)
it’s been pretty good so far :) Just the break I needed from school.
Friday (03/23) - After work, chilled with some coworkers and drove back home from Irvine. Went to Disneyland with Vanessa and ate at Rainforest Cafe :)
Saturday (03/24) - Hung out with my brother. Sold clothes to buffalo exchange $$$. Ate at Rubio’s and got Frostbites for dessert :3
Sunday (03/25) - Planned to get Ramen with my brother, and Vanessa wanted to come along. Got Sumo Size Milk Tea from Oko Cafe for the first time :O It’s soo much, I shared with Peter. Went to mass with my siblings and Vanessa. Bought my sister her birthday gift. Visited Kristina before she left for school. Got Krispy Kreme with Vanessa and Kat. Reunited~
Monday (Today) - Sauna with Vanessa, Eat @ Joe’s, Target (Jason Wu stuff was on sale hehe), Palos Verdes with Vanessa and Melissa. Ate at Veggie Grill (vegetables…that taste like meat?!) for dinner and got Handel’s Ice Cream for dessert.
This is just the break I needed.
you’re so studious! (it almost scares me for college) but i admire your hard working nature :)
Awww, thank you :) I don’t know about being studious…cause I’m on tumblr right now haha. Trust me, this is just what Finals Week looks like @______@ Don’t be afraid for college! It’s easy…but hard. Easy because if you’re a bio major like me most of my core classes don’t have homework…but that means classes are based largely on midterms and finals. Hard because…your grades are based off one or two midterms and a final!!!! So, you can’t just study a night or two before for tests (I remember I was back home a few weeks ago and it was Sunday and Katrina said she didn’t want to study for her physics test the next day…and I was shocked…because there is no way I would ever start studying for a test the day before like I used to in high school!! I try to start at least a week ahead so I don’t hate myself later haha). And UCI runs on the quarter system (as opposed to semester) so everything is faster, but I kind of like it. Haha okay…going to stop rambling now because I’m procrastinating…it can be tough, but studying isn’t the only thing I do (only during finals week haha). & I heard about your acceptances! Congratulations!! I’m sure you’ll pick the school that’s right for you :D
Pssh…who needs a study room when you can bring your own whiteboard to the library? (Taken with Instagram at Ayala Science Library / SLIB (UCI))
