My DoucheBag GSI:
My Poli Sci 2 GSI- the man that grades all my essays, and midterm and final (which are also essays)- is such a cold evil man. The discussion class was 2 hrs of sauna hot torture. He is a foreigner, from Czech Republic I believe. When I first saw him I thought, hmm this guy is kinda hot. Boy how I was decieved. First he basically tells us not to have high expections for this class because the materical can get very dull, especially since its an intro class. He's such a pretentious guy. Hes like, I studied in Germany, then went to China to study/work , then to Australia, Japan, and Korea. When he was doing roll, he spoke in Korean, Japanese, German, and Russian. Reminded me of a douche version of Threadgill.
Then he was like oh, I'm a very strict grader, so if you are wanting an A from this class, just drop it. I only gave out 10 As out of 55 students last yr, so don't expect an A even if you work very hard. So that guy made me so depressed about Poli Sci. I want to switch sections, which may be impossible because cal is a frikin overpopulated public school with an awful class enrollment schedule. But thats the only thing I don't like about Cal so far.
Creepy Cult Experience:
My floormates and I hit up all that events that provide free food, instead of using meal points haha. But yesterday, all that mooching finally caught up to us. We went to this "community service center" because it said FREE BBQ 6-7 pm on the flyer. Turns out we were the only ones who showed up along with these twin girls. Usu. the events we go to have 100s of ppl, so it was sooooo weiirdd. They made us get in a circle and she talking about how they try to transform their members and help them connect with their spiritual side (its not even a religious group). The way she was talking gave me serious cult vibes. We tried to leave but we felt bad cuz we were the onlyones there!! So after we ate, we couldnt take this creepiness anymore, one of us was like OMG Jessica's lost (other floormate). We jetted and went to this Christian welcome night for free sundaes :)
Freshman 15:
I realized how easy it is to gain the F 15. Earlier this week I've been eating so much: all you can eat meals, 4th meals, 2 dinners. Gah. I have stopped that now. No more. But the good thing is that my classes are really far apart and Berkeley is on a hill, so that involves A LOT of walking.
Partying:
I haven't gone partying bc its pretty lame. Just people getting drunk and playing beer pong. But my roomate Alice does and usually comes back at 2 or something, which Rachelle and I just chill and joke around and do work. Well last night (fri) I came back later than both of them. I was at a sports event organized by this Christian fellowship. I played soccer and dodgeball for 3 hrs. It was really fun. My roomate was like, omg, Annika is out later that me. What have I come to! lol
My roomates:
My roomies are messy. I am their mother. I tell them to clean up. My mom would have a good laugh if she read that. payback haha. I try to keep my little space clean in this cramp sty I call home. It's hard to keep my side of the desk clean. One of my roommates is Rachelle. She is married. She is only 18. Okay, she may not have that piece of paper from the government, but she's practicaly married. She wears a promise ring on her wedding ring finger and talks to her bf till 4 am. I jokingly tell her I will be the force that breaks their "marriage" apart. Oh she also calls be 'heifer' and 'bitch' all the time lol. My other roomie is Alice. She is really messy. She uses me as an apparatus to get things out of narrow cracks and hard to reach places bc I'm skinny and according to her '96 lbs' Good to know I'm useful for something haha. Also, we are all socalers, but they are already using hella in everyday convo. Traitors.
Christians:
Christians at Cal are so nice. Maybe I should convert haha
[H]OUSE
