If there's a place where I can study and do my work properly, it's not the library, it's not my apartment, it's not under a tree. Despite the 3 flatscreen TVs playing chinese/korean/jap music videos around me, I seem to be able to do my homework better here in The Old Tea House, than at quiet places. Not to mention a huge tabletop fan buzzing at full speed near me. Anyways, I love this place. Not a huge 'restaurant', but their milk tea with tapioca is the BEST around. Their food isn't that great though IMO for the price, or maybe it's just me, not that I come here for the food anyway =D

This week is the start of a hectic semester. The past 3 weeks there were just homework for 3 classes of mine, and this week I have homework for that other 4th class I'm taking. Trust me, having 3 homework in Berkeley can drive you crazy, especially if all are from technical classes. 4 pieces of homework can keep you awake till 3am everyday trying to finish up the homework. Not to mention that studying is a MUST everyday, otherwise you're screwed when the class materials snowball to the next week and the next .......

Geez I wonder why I took Probability and Linear Algebra classes this semester. Frankly I'm not a Math person at all, and that makes the materials harder for me to comprehend. I'm hoping I'm not committing academic suicide. One good thing next semester is that I'll be taking only TWO classes, and next semester will be the final semester I'll be at Berkeley, unless I decide to stay for summer.

I still haven't decided what to do when I graduate. I know I won't be going to graduate school. I'll most likely find a job, and if possible I'll get a tech job in a company that'll outsource me to Malaysia. Maybe I'll just get a job in Malaysia. Yea I know living in the US is great, the American Dream, standard of living is better etc... but I love my home country. Given the chance to migrate to the US I wouldn't either. It's just the policies of the US and the politics and its self-proclaimed status as the world's peacekeepers that I don't agree with.

Oh Well....... gonna get back to my statistics homework. Hopefully I'll get it done today and I can work on my other 3 homework tomorrow... hopefully....
