Panda's Stressful/Weird first week of School
Hmmmm
wow....spring break sure ended quick. It was a dream....
So this week is the first week of my spring quarter. My classes this quarter is not gonna be as awesome like last quarter. I'd be mostly learning things like theories and serious topics like low wages.
I'm just stress out at the moment because the workload is way heavier than what I am use to.
My first class is an Anthropology class on Cultural Anthropology Theories. This class is heavy with readings and writing. So far I am already feeling lost in this class. Talking about theories is not my forte because mainly I am not interest in these type of thing. I just read an article for the class and I was like, "wait, what? I don't remember what I just read!"
Man, I really have to figure out a way on how to enjoy and care what we are learning in class if I want to pass -_____-
I also don't have a good feel about my classmates, everyone has this uncomfortable and heavy vibe :/
There maybe an energy vampire among them...
The next class is an Anthropology class on People of Africa. I never really learn anything about Africa so many of the things we'd be learning would all be new materials. So no review ^^ Yay!
If anyone ever taken some Anthropology classes, many of them always overlap with one another in concepts and it's always a review when the professor wants you to understand what Anthropology is.
The last class is a Sociology class on Work and Low wages.
Okay, so there was a mistake in the catalog when I went and read about the description of the class before I signed up for it. Then it was called Work and Society. Now it is changed to Work and Low Wages. This makes a difference because we would most likely focus on low wages in the class and nothing else in general. I sometime don't mind specification in a topic but if I am going to learn about one main topic for the next 10 weeks, it may become dull to me -__-
Also I was taken by surprise with this class that made me want to run out of the classroom. Apparently, my prof would like each of us (there are 40 of us)to help conduct a research for the school by getting surveys from people with low wages. He said our goal is 600! Also getting these surveys is %50 of our grade.
Luckily it wouldn't be too hard to get people to take the survey because we have gift cards as an incentive.
Getting these surveys are time consuming, I heard that a survey may take 25 mins to an hour. Thankfully our prof is gonna cut us some slack by not giving us exams ^^
I was really scared and thought that I really didn't belong in the class, but this was a challenge and I don't want run away from it. I rarely drop out of a class and I only did it once because it was too late at night and I learned that I didn't need it. Even if it meant having the most difficult test or that the prof is horrible as in mean or inept in their teaching ability, I still follow through with the class. I am a go with the flow kind of person. (I rarely complain to my friends about the difficulty in my class because I see no reason in complaining because it's a waste of time. So they always think I don't ever study or do my work but still get an A in class >_< which is frustrating because that mean that my work for my grade has no value then :/). Sorry I got a little sidetracked XD
Anyway. I just gonna hope that I would survive this quarter. Also this is the last quarter living in the dorm for me. Too bad, I'm kinda use to it now. Oh well I gotta move on.
Oh yeah the weird part. There is a strike happening in the UCs that took place yesterday and today. Which is totally messing up my schedule. Also stressing me out because one of my professors want to hold class in front of school (where the strike is at). It's gonna be messy to navigate through the campus to get there because of people marching and especially traffic. So I just emailed my professor telling him that I am not comfortable of going to the front of campus. This stressing me out because this is the second meeting for the class and I really don't want to miss class and i keep thinking "what if my prof drop me from class for not showing up?"
Ugh....This sucks. I would have to be there in 30 mins. Hopefully he got my email and understand where I am coming from. It's a hassle and also uncomfortable for me to get there :/
Dang, I wrote a lot! Sorry everyone, hopefully I didn't bore you ^^
Have a good day and enjoy this video below ^^
The load is gone!!!
Ramen and I finally did laundry at our school!
Usually we would bring stuff back home to wash but we didn't feel like carrying dirty laundry home this time so we decided to wash it here ^^
The process was pretty confusing. We were better off figuring it out for ourselves than following the printed directions. The directions weren't clear and were missing steps and were vague -__-
Anyway we got it done!
Now we could just focus on our studies and our finals. 7 more days until Spring Break!!!
I have an orange ^^
Have a good morning everyone!!!

Watching way too much K-drama -__-
As some of you know, I recently started watching k-drama just last year....
I feel that I've been watching so much because I've been saying out loud a lot of the sayings in these k-dramas, like "Aigoo" and "Fighting!"
Now I even have the same facial expression as these k-drama actresses and actors...
this is one of the few facial expressions that I find myself expressing:
I usually have a "poker" face look but as lately, people have been doing funny and weird things that I have to do this facial expression. Usually I don't show any facial expression but now I do. Now my face is tired...
*sighes
it's that thing where us human would copy a facial expression of the person we are facing and for me I guess I've been spending too much screen time facing the expressive facial expressions of the actresses and actors O_o
But hey, the good thing is that, I have been more cheerful ^^
anyway, that's all for now...
have a spectacular day ^^
Smile more too ^^
