school finally started. my 4 month summer vacation finally ended on friday. i went to my very first college class, Brain & Behavior. class doesn't seem so bad. the professor just talks and you take notes. for hw, you just have to do alotta reading and study on your own so you know your crap. then i guess come Midterms and such. i like my schedule. i only have one class everyday except for wednesday. on that day, i have 3. my earliest class is at 10. pretty cool. i can sleep until 9.

gosh, not having a car in college really sucks. all the so. cal people just go home during the weekends. so instead of being stuck in my dorm, dykas and i decided to hang out with terrance for the weekend. his apartment is pretty nice. feels very "home-y." saturday was basically just hw and anime. but it was fun.

we went to riverside and met up with kevin. it was good seeing him again. apparently, the guy hates riverside and really misses korean food. haha. it was good seeing him again. it feels REALLY good to see people that you know in places you're not too familiar with. i was even happy to see Terrance when he came to pick us up! weird is it not?

today, i went to CPC, Cerritos Presbyterian Church. i like it b/c it's really similar to KCPC. dennis kang is the pastor and the college group is about as big as yg back at home. i like it. not too big and not too small. i may actually get to know some people, unlike Bethel or Newsong (oh yeah jomo, i met Amy Lee from Newsong. she said she knew you in high school). but yes, CPC will have the opportunity to have me as their newest member. i like Dennis Kang. he speaks the Word with a cool ghetto accent. yeah, Praise God for provision. i'll definitely need a good church down here.

i went to go work out with my friend today. we ran a mile and i did some pushups and crunches. once again, i am a pitiful mess. totally out of shape. i think i'm going to start running mile everyday now.

gosh, i've been playing so much pool with my friends. today, i played for like 3 hours! it's cool b/c the tables aren't that bad and it only costs $2.80/hr. i definitely got alot better, you hear me Jonna?! when i come back, i'm gonna rape you like there's no tomorrow! haha. everyday, little by little, i feel more and more settled at irvine. i ALWAYS meet someone new in the most random places. in the parking lot, i met a freshmen who drove a Supra who came from Bay Area! he knew a few people from mills too. during dinner, i met this korean guy named David who randomly just decided to eat at my table. it just so happens that we live in the same dorm, and he lives in a triple too! he seems like the ghetto type, reminded me ALOT of Thomas. haha. so. cal people aren't so bad. they seem REALLY laid back. very chiiiiiiiiill. it's like they study hard, but play harder. it's a good combo.

gosh, after reading lois's blog about her conversation with chang, i got all sad. well initially, i was cracking up. haha. BUT, the conversation reminded me alot of back home. i miss everyone. i miss chang's laughter. i miss PJ's passionate sermons. i miss playing pool with jonna and B. i miss playing chess with simon. shoot, i even miss driving the yg kids around! *sigh* it's only been 2 weeks. not even close to coming back home anytime soon.
