ACTUAL downtown santa cruz | Day 4 college | DAY

hi this is day 4, its 12:58 AM


  • woke up at 8, went to teh gym to play basketball, no one was there
  • after the gym, i went to this info meeting about research at 10 am
  • after the lecture thing which lasted about an hour, i took a bus down to UCSC TAPS, transportation services to figure out the ebike stuff cuz i filled out the ebike form with my personal email instead of my ucsc email and they wont reply to my requests now. Got it all figured out which was cool
  • tried out the ebike, which is apparently just "electric assist" so its not even that good to uphill. Plus, for my first impressions, all of the bikes at the dock were on low battery. Hopefully this is just like a fluke or whatever tho
  • Then i went to the dininghall with a couple of floormates. food was alright, they had these raspberry gradola bars that were rly good
  • Then i was in my dorm for like 2 hours just cubing. Byt htis time it was 4, so me and raymon decided to just take a bus and see where it takes us. The others were at some kpop event that we didnt wanna go to cuz it was too far away. We ended up like scouting out a mall area in downtown santa cruz. This was when we reached like just the general downtown area which is honestly pretty sick. It reminds me a lot of livermore downtown, its pretty lively and way less dead than what I apparently went to yesterday, that i called "downtown." This was the real "downtown"
  • but yea anyway we did that until like 6:30 or something i dont remember, we went back to the dining hall to eat dinner where we acutally saw arian
  • after dinner, we went back to the dorm for a while, then 6 of us floormates decided to go on a walk under a bridge. The gate was like closed or whatever so we couldnt, so we decided intsead to walk towards east field. Keep in mind it was like super dark, it was like 10 pm or something and it was just nice, we walked past the east field onto a street and saw a nice viewpoint
  • Then on our way back, there was a huge group of students just standing aruond the east field. We thought they were doing weed but it was just a wholesome like social gathering thing. Apparently theres some stephenson(a college group affiliate) group chat and everyone decided to meet up there. We decided to make some friends in that thing and just talk about stuff. It's honestly kinda wholesome to see an event with this capacity of people with just the sole objective of like talkinga nd meeting new ppl. It's rly wholesome lol
  • We were there for like 40 minutes or somethign just talking to ppl but yea 
  • anyway then we headed back, an along the way we saw lucas(one of our floormates) hanging out in the lounge with one of his friends and we popped in and played some cards. The lounge also had a piano and I played on it but then it was quiet hours so a like officer came in and told me to stop very kindly. Anyway we played like egyptian war and spoons and stuff and it was pretty fun
  • Yea then after that we headed back, i took a shower, we were NOT planning on getting back this late, but man i guess that random socializing spontaneous event and that lounge thing is just part of like the college experience or whatever
  • but anyway yea before i wrap things up i SOMEHOW CANT FIND MY PIXEL BUDS and i am VERY ANNOYED. I SWEAR ON MY LIFE I DIDNT BRING IT TO THE HIKE OR WAHTEVER. I swear i left it in my room, but its legit not on my desk or anywhere. I'll have to properly find it tomorrow ig, ill take a bike back to our viewpoint because i sat on a bench and it mightve fallen out of my pocket there. but my wallet didn't fall out which is good i guess? but like man ive had these earbuds for so long i DO NOT WANT TO LOSE IT especailly this early in. My only backups are like wired ones and i dont wanna deal with that especially at the gym. man i BETTER FIND IT TOMORROW PLEASE MAN PELASE JUST BE ON THE FLOOR SOMEWHERE BRUH I LEGIT THOUGHT ABOUT IT FOR LIKE 20 MINUTES JUST SITTING HERE PONDERING IF I BROUGHT IT WITH ME OR LEFT IT AT THE DORM AND I LEGIT DONT KNOW

Fire alarm in the dorm

  Something crazy, something memorable, and something hilarious happened yesterday.  So 11/6/23, let's do the typical day diary type stuff.  Here's what happened on November 6th  - It was a Monday, and usually I do push day on Mondays but I was super sore from running on Saturday and spending 3 hrs at the gym on Sunday playing basketball and doing pull day.   - So I woke up at 9:50 AM, got ready, and I didn't have a smoothie ready for this morning so I cut myself an apple and a banana and that was my breakfast. While this happened I checked canvas and my professor sent out an announcement that today's lecture was gonna be online again because she was still feeling sick.  - SO I took my lecture at my desk and it is harder to focus for sure but I still got it done because like she moves at a pretty fast pace in her lecture you always have to be on top of your game.  - After lecture, I think I chilled for a while and cubed a bit or something, but the...

Let's run down what I did today, because it was quite a unique day.  - I wanna do a codeforces contest at 4 AM tomorrow  - Thus, I slept at 5 AM and woke up at 11 AM today, to kinda skew my sleep schedule or whatever  -  I went on like a bike ride and went to andres' room and went on omegle, thats how I killed the time to sleep at 5 AM  - So with the preface out of the way, let'st alk about today.  - SO 11 AM jackson's alarm woke me up, I was planning on waking up later but its whatever. He went home for the weekend.   - I drank a smoothie with strawberries, blueberries, and milk for breakfast. That stuff was pretty good tbh. I got a blender bottle and I have a code to the kitchen co-op so I use their blender to blend it, cuz the blender bottle cant blend strawberries cuz itsl iterally jsut a spring, it can only like mix soft things  - Then me, Raymon, Matthew, and Andres to...

casual productive tuesday + arian's slug story

 Today is Tuesday and here I am wrapping up how the day went. It was fairly uneventful I would say.   - Woke up at like 7:50 AM and got ready. I literally stopped telling myself to pull up to this class on time because there really is no need to and it feels so good to press that snooze button  - And so I went to my 8 AM class until 9:35 AM. I put in one earbud and litearlly finished my reading reflection due on Thursday during class which felt super satisfying. Literally that class is so soothing sometimes to do work because its just kids yapping making a nice environment for me to do work  - Then I went back to my room and did some cubing until around 10:50 AM  - Then I left at 10:50 AM cuz Jackson was coming back today at 11:20 AM and I don't wanna deal with his mom being in the room lol so I guess that means a very early lunch for me.  - After lunch I took a bike down to McHenry library. At this point it was like 12:00 PM. I stayed at the library f...
