i really like ode. the huge mac desktops are great. a large display helps with photo and video editing as well as overall productivity. i love studying late at night with friends here in the study rooms too. very enriching both academically and personally. so much can be learned from just the conversations during studying. stayed until 4am this time lol…

i was looking through these photographs of places in japan where the tsunami hit in 2011 compared to what the places look like now in 2013 (www.theatlantic.com/infocus/2013/03/japan-earthquake-2-ye…). what an amazing recovery, what a tough chore, what a hardworking nation of people. thought i should be more hardworking; i’ve been slacking quite a bit these days and not being as responsible as i should. feels guilty when i see others work hard towards accomplishments and i’m not doing the same. started off small by taking care of neglected responsibilities today like finally going to my accounting lecture and taking a pic because i’ve always liked this room (it was probably the 5th time going this quarter lolol), finishing jsa tasks in time for the meeting, finally started preparing for the writing skills assessment by going to the workshop. but its been a good couple weeks academically; i hope i can win at my finals too lol pretty excited about them. tests are really fun to prepare for sometimes

a shot from a photoset project i’m working on for an upcoming event for jsa. this day was so nice. the sun brings out so much prettiness in things like when it’s shining at the perfect angle to light up the buildings at school before it sets. its been sunny and clear this past week and i’ve been quite happy. that’s usually how it is but when there’s nothing planned or no one to see for a relatively long amount of time, i get stressed about tasks to complete, anxious about what to do for the day, angry about whatever situation is a pain at the time, but overall lonely. people are busy though, and so am i, so the alone time is necessary to be productive; however it’s emotionally tiring to be alone for more than a day. it’s also quite taxing to be surrounded by people for days in a row, for weeks, and for so often that alone time becomes scarce and a thing to relish, but the stimulation, laughs, and bonding is worthwhile and necessary, so it’s preferable to the opposite situation.

unfortunately it’s currently that opposite situation because finals are only days away. although we all get together at the end of every week, it slips by quickly, whereas the time spent alone being productive and studying accumulates throughout the week, creates a rather dead kind of mood that i’m forced to adopt as my default because of the aggregate stress and lack of interaction.

oh well, spring break is soon and i’m going to hawaii with some of the most fun people ever :D it’ll be a pain getting through the days until then, but i plan to reconnect with some people to achieve my optimal balance of people and productivity. goal for the week~

yes i’ll think of something to represent the 3/11 earthquake from 2 years ago. goal for tomorrow (today).

i thought i would become more motivated and inspired with photography with this new year but i’m not. maybe i’ll feel creative when summer comes and i’ll have time on my hands. i don’t know what i’m doing with photography right now. it feels like i’m using the same kind of formula with composition and editing again and again. lol

rain on Flickr.

i was bored and the street was wet outside and looked cool underneath the streetlight so i went to take a picture. it’s starting to rain here :( today was the second day of rain. it’s getting cold too. today my right hand froze while using my mouse qq firstworldproblems. i finished a lot of my homework today. i think this was my most productive weekend in a while. my breakfast, lunch, and dinner were delicious too. today was a nice day inside i guess. it feels weird to stay at home so long though. on the weekdays, i stay on campus for a long time before going home. i guess i like school. i’m having fun there. but not the classes part.

part of my favorite building on campus. these buildings have so much character. lots of interesting architecture. these first two weeks in college make high school seem so boring :D i guess i should settle down a little and focus on my classes asdfkljds

photowalk around the campus with members of the uw class fb group :D challenge of the day was to find something that says fall. i guess there’s a bit of fall within all the green

lecture hall on Flickr.

i passed by this room during the first week of class and thought that the colored paper over the windows created some really interesting light so i brought my camera the following week to take pictures of it before class in a nearby room. i failed my quiz that day ;_; but never again

this is the sunset i saw the day i took bunch of pictures of seattle from alki. I GUESS THIS REPRESENTS THE END OF MY SUMMER QQ. school started on monday and i have no time to take pictures.

i have like 90 math problems to do by tuesday and a quiz friday and lots to study for. i get to school in the morning when its really cold and i end class in the afternoon when it becomes really hot. the commute towards school is really quick but the commute back home takes forever because i have to take multiple slower buses. i ran into the wrong classroom yesterday in the middle of its lecture. i made some new friends but i don’t know what some of their names are and i feel too awkward to ask. my new friends have mutual friends on facebook what a small world. my math/computer science interest group leader person acts like a dumb blond. i haven’t been to any of the welcoming week events but i’ll go one on friday. i run into people from high school on campus everyday. i’ve been sitting in my friend’s math class at a different college and the teacher hasn’t noticed. i even took a pop quiz and worked on a group test. i have to wait hours before my tea gets cool enough to drink from my new mug. i’m actually really bored in all my lectures because i’ve taken the class or learned the material before. i thought it would be a good idea because i wouldn’t have to struggle too much but i’m really bored. i had my birthday yesterday and i ate yummy food.
