Officially Graduated

I got an email today saying I am officially graduated.
It is kind of a relief.
Even though it was only about a month ago, that I was still taking finals…it feels like it was so long ago.

Parents’ fear of violent video games

I saw this on the yahoo mainpage and it caught my eye. Particularly because I’ve done research on this very subject.

Discovering Professors

I was reading this book one day, City of Quartz, for my History class and halfway through my assigned pages, I stop and think….wait a minute…who is the author again?

UCI Hospitality

I have noticed something during my time at UCI. There are a lot of nice people here.
I think seven out of ten times, someone will hold the door open for me when I walk near a door.
Most of the time, they are walking in front of me, notice that I am walking behind them, and [...]
