Wasting.. Lamenting.. Cooking..

Well, that basically sums up my past 2 weeks of school life :)

I have been wasting a lot of time.. Apartment life is kind of distracting.. when everyone is home, you do not have anyone else to distract but each other (you would never have this problem living in the dorms or living alone), so we end up wasting a lot of time together.. Another reason is that we finally have Cable.. NBA season is starting.. Baseball is reaching its ultimate climax and NFL is heating up.. TV became a major distraction..

Somewhere inside of me, I do not wish to do any school work, I do not remember ever feeling this unmotivated.. It's not like I am partying more or having more of a non-academic life.. I stopped myself from pokering online so that should count as one less distraction.. and I have not drank even once this whole quarter..that's kind of amazing.. I would gladly bet that 80% of UCLA students have drank at some point in the first 3 weeks :).. maybe even higher!.. Speaking of which, I really need a big party scene soon.. I am feeling it.. I know I do not like drinking that much but this is long overdue, Santa Barbara in Halloween .. Biggest party of da year!!

To further explain my lack of drive.. it leads to my lamenting.. The other day while dragging through the 103 hwk, I was complaining to Tiffany online about my major for 3 hours.. I am pretty sure she was quite tired of me and my bitching.. I was too. I could not help it.. it is simply the biggest distraction of all right now for mean..the SCHOOL work itself is the BIGGEST distraction.. I know it sounds odd, but every time I do these works, I feel even more strongly about how useless and meaningless these works are.. which justifies why I do a crappy job on them..

I have been cooking, cooked for xiao Min twice the past 2 weeks, both very successful.. , I also cooked 京酱肉丝 and refined 油焖大虾 for myself, I have material to make 茄子夹肉 next week.. you know, if I have to say two things I enjoy the most doing right now is 1. Cooking 2. Pokering.

Time passes by fast.. 2 weeks from now are midterms.. I have a couple of goals for the next couple of weeks..

1. Get a Car
2. Apply for Internships
3. Stop wasting life
4. Stop bitching
5. Master 3 dishes.
