Yes, I'm back from LA. Friday was me and my brother in Disneyland, casually avoiding scary roller-coasters and doing much driving at Autopia.
We strolled around Pomona and drove around UCLA. No, we don't know how to visit colleges. (Plus it was the weekend, so visitor-center was closed, etc.) Instead we were interpretting the atmosphere and personality of the colleges from the architecture. Mom's verdict: "UCLA has red brick buildings like Berkeley, but more organized. Therefore semi-liberal and not as crazy as the Berkeley people." "Pomona is like a miniature Stanford! Very preppy. A greenhouse flower, very fragile. Where's the nightlife?"
I've been online for so long today. First I took Jess and Karen's friend tests. (and failed Karen's). Yay! Jess is online again! Woo happy second-semester-senior-ness.
Then I caught up on all the LJ, plus Tochi's SoF update. (Zhu and Mao chick-fight!) I really liked the quote, "I'm 4000 years old, I can look whatever age I want". Yeah, Hou! Tony's so sweet, trying to make sense of this who god thing. At first I thought he was working on his newspaper article b/c the words are written horizontally. Oh well.
Erg, I really really want to read a good fanfic. But I can't find any. Either that or I'm too lazy to go look, and too untalented to filter through 10 gallons of trashy fics to find the good ones. Oh well, might as well go sleep.
Did I say that UC Berkeley has "red brick buildings"? If I did, it is wrong:(. Let's go there to see what kinds of buildings they have and of what color in near future :) ! I am afraid that I need to go to Shanghai next week for my uncle's funeral. He has been so nice to me. I lost my father when I was 16 and he has tried to take care of us like my father. In fact, even when my father was alive, he was very nice to me. When my grandpa died 1962 at his 73, it was considered that he had had a long life. But now when my uncle died at his 74, people would think that he could live for much longer. Our world has been changed so much. Mom
