MODS

I have professors from: Jamaica, Italy, Greece, and Germany. They each have very interesting accents, which kind of distract from lecture and at the same time make me pay attention. Accents are very fun. Each of my floormates has a different British accent (from Wales, Liverpool, Midlands, London). This weekend, I taught the girls in my corridor "HELLLLLAAAAA" and that Norcal > Socal. :):):):)

I have one more class that starts on Thursday, so I'll see what kind of accent that lecturer has! And yes, I have to take 5 classes ("modules") this semester :( boo. Haas only requires 13 semester units, but I'm gonna come back with 20. freaking EAP requirements! 20!!! two-zero. because it's technically a 2-quarter exchange term with Warwick. bah! 4 international business at WBS (warwick biz skoool) and 1 psych class, pretty much finalized now.

IB 3260 – Buyer Behaviour

IB 3680 – International Business Strategy

IB 3940 – International Financial Management

(^used LOOP and arbitrage opportunities today in lecture = exciting!)

IB 3B00 – E-Business and Value Chains

and PS218 - PSYCHOBIOLOGY!!!

psychooo is going to be interesting. lots and lots of sex and hormones. heck, our main text is called "the sexual brain" (which I found online! yay for cheapness!! read here). hopefully not tooo much bio though.. haven't studied that since junior year in HS for APs!


but i managed to fit all classes into just 3 days a week :):) TUES, THURS, FRI! here, there are less lecture hours per week, but more self-motivated work (I.E. READING). and in most cases, just 1 paper or 1 final exam that counts for 100% of your grade. dun dun DUN.



HAHA sorry this is a pretty boring post about school. if you're wondering why i haven't posted up many pix, it's cuz its drizzling here!! and windy!! and not that beautiful... yet. hahahah so i will take pix when it's sunnier. i have a few of london though! but i'm not in them, so people (like haewon) don't even care to see them.


everything that comes when you order tea! cute huh? milk, sugar, biscuit. i like the tiny portions here, except when i'm starving :P



SCHUH. what a weird name. i didn't have time to go into it though, maybe next trip to birmingham.

tired! gnight! need running shoes.

p.s. pilates classes here are sooo weaksauce. XP

if british people believe that norcal > socal then they are even more retarded than i thought (which is nearly impossible).

and professor accents only preventing learning of the material.
