disneyland day two

Hihi. My cousin has been staying over at my house since Friday, so we decided to pay another visit to Disneyland over the weekend. I’d say it was a lot more enjoyable than the last time we went - more rides open, cloudy day, nice breeze…seemed really sweet. Kevin let me borrow his camera for the summer (thank you, dear), but it started to ran out of batteries by around noonish. Sigh sigh. So I’ve only got pictures of ToonTown.

Best rides of the day: (1) Our first time going on California Adventure’s Tower of Terror; (2) Grizzly Bear Rapids, where a sweet boy gave us his Fast Passes; and (3) Matterhorn - is that how you spell it?




I love my kuya. Even though he acts like he’s five, he still can make me laugh like no other. (:

Tomorrow, we have church in the morning and maybe a trip out to Santa Monica. SO glad I’ve got Wednesdays off.

Yesterday I went back to UCLA after a long absence for my first day of CRC training. The four hours was pretty enjoyable, but I realized that I have A LOT to learn. It most definitely seemed like I was the noob of the group, and everybody noticed. -________-

BUTTTT, I am nonetheless super stoked to work with WSP next year! Kim Yau is super sweet and she coached me a little about the “Spiral Method” and “Cake Model”, haha. I really should continue attending CRC training, but working from 10-6 PM Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays ain’t helping me. At one point during training, I realized that I have not fully expanded my “network”, or better put, I feel like my first year was sort of…wasted. Believe me, my freshman year at UCLA was BOMMMMB, but looking back, I can see that I stuck to my comfort zone for the most of it and didn’t explore different areas like I thought I would. Spending time at the SAC really showed me that. I hope that next year things will change and that I can mature academically as well as make an effort to influence my community. I’ve got a lot to learn at the SRC, but that’s what school is all about - LEARNING and GROWING!
