protesting as a norm

2010-10-05T15:31:00.000-07:00

An email I got, im still kinda ammused that they send these out like its so common to have protesting.

Dear Cal Students:

UC Berkeley has a longstanding and valued tradition of activism. Making
speeches, handing out leaflets, holding or attending rallies, carrying
posters and demonstrating are all part of that proud tradition. Free
speech rights, however, are not unlimited. When protest activity
violates law, infringes on the rights of others, or interferes with
university business, students may face academic and legal consequences.
Earlier this semester, I also sent messages regarding our Principles of
Community and Time, Place, and Manner policy to
inform the campus on our rights and responsibilities.

The University encourages all who engage in protest activity to protest
safely. Below are some suggestions for doing so:

* Avoid activity that infringes on the rights of others, such as
blocking and preventing the movement or access of others.

* Follow the lawful instructions of a police officer or public official,
such as staying behind barricades, dispersing from an area declared an
unlawful assembly, not resisting arrest. It is against the law to
disobey a lawful order by a police officer.

* Leave the area where others are engaging in illegal activities and
acts of violence. Your presence may be interpreted as participating in
a riot or illegal group action. Staying overnight in a campus building
after hours is prohibited.

* Refrain from speech that incites others to commit acts of violence
such as pushing, kicking or spitting on others, or other unlawful
actions.

* Make informed decisions. If you choose to engage in civil disobedience
and get arrested, know the potential consequences. Contact the Center
for Student Conduct and Community Standards for more information.

If you believe your rights have been violated by a police officer or
other public official, ask for his or her name and badge number
(if a police officer) and file a complaint after the situation has
calmed down or concluded. Formal complaints or charges may be filed with
the UCPD; the Student Advocate's Office and the Student Ombuds office
are also available to students for informal complaint resolution.

Im happy to be here :)

experiment- google's facebook

2010-02-22T18:16:00.000-08:00

so counter starts at 1555, lets see how many ppl want to know about the next big thing

start : 1820 PST, Feb 22, 2010

friennect -the new facebook?

2010-02-22T17:38:00.000-08:00

this is an experiment by me to test how fast ppl chase rumors

If ur busy, you may leave before you actually waste any time,

if your bored, pls pass the rumor on if you do not mind.

so, this is how it started

Buzz, thats googles new twitter i guess, i was thinking about that and

it seems like anything someone else has, if it attracts a certain ammount of people, google wants one of their own. Yes, soon they will control the whole world.

Anyway, I was wondering when they will decide to build their own facebook.

Then I thought, I could start a rumor, and see how many ppl fall for it.
So, i prepared this then sent the rumor. (yes as i type this I do not even know if anyone will click on this page.)

Facebook meanwhile is doing really well and may start selling shares soon.

Anyway, this is just a stupid rumor, leave a comment if you want to let me know how my little experiment went.

Also, what do you think of the name friennect?

What would you name it if you had a choice?

btw, if u wanna start an experiment like this, it takes bout 10 minutes before ur post can be found by the google search engine.

lastly,

if you know me, check out recursion with no base case.

recursion

ps- if u want to continue the rumor use the word friennec with a t. and every time u use the word google search engine will find it

and if i wasted ur valuable time

cheer up

A man and a friend are playing golf one day at their local golf course. One of the guys is about to chip onto the green when he sees a long funeral procession on the road next to the course. He stops in mid-swing, takes off his golf cap, closes his eyes, and bows down in prayer.

His friend says: “Wow, that is the most thoughtful and touching thing I have ever seen. You truly are a kind man.”

The man then replies: “Yeah, well we were married 35 years.”

email to berkeley students

2010-01-24T16:18:00.000-08:00

With the Spring semester's beginning, we write jointly to remind the university
community that use of our common resources -- our classrooms, labs, offices, and
public spaces -- is subject to rules aimed at protecting the liberty of each of us
to teach, learn, work, live, and engage in political expression. Rights of protest
and demonstration are both protected and governed by rules of appropriate time,
place, and manner, crafted collaboratively by faculty, students and administration,
in accordance with First Amendment law.

In particular, we remind all that the following campus rules are fundamental to our
respectful and vigorous life as a community diverse in beliefs, interests, and
activities. These rules will be enforced as we embark on a season of renewed
discussion and debate concerning the path forward for Berkeley and higher education.
We expect the full compliance of faculty, staff, and students.

311. The University has a special obligation to protect free inquiry and free
expression. On University grounds open to the public generally, all persons may
exercise the constitutionally protected rights of free expression, speech and
assembly. Such activities must not, however, interfere with the right of the
University to conduct its affairs in an orderly manner and to maintain its property,
nor may they interfere with the University's obligation to protect the rights of all
to teach, study, and freely exchange ideas. These regulations purport to assure the
right of free expression and advocacy on the Berkeley campus, to minimize conflict
between the form of exercise of that right and the rights of others in the effective
use of University facilities, and to minimize possible interference with the
University's responsibilities as an educational institution.

312. These regulations provide authorization for certain uses of University
facilities, and establish procedures for such authorized uses. Such uses must
conform to these regulations, Berkeley campus and University policies, and state and
federal laws that may protect or regulate matters of public expression on the
Berkeley campus.

331. The Sproul Plaza and Lower Sproul Plaza have traditionally been designated as
areas for public expression. These areas are open to the public generally between
the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 12:00 midnight. Between the hours of midnight and 6 a.m.,
these areas are generally closed to all activities except coming and going to a
University building or crossing the campus. During open hours, Sproul Plaza and
Lower Sproul Plaza may be used without reservation for discussion or public
expression which does not require or involve sound amplification equipment. Space in
both areas may be reserved through the Center for Student Leadership for use by
recognized campus organizations or non-University groups in accordance with facility
use regulations and established office procedures. However, use of these areas for
discussion or public expression may be limited when such use interferes with the
orderly conduct of University business or authorized events.

I found it amusing, but thats to show what its like here, when protests happen so often that they assume well be at it again

spring 2010

2010-01-24T16:08:00.000-08:00

Squelch

2009-10-21T14:54:00.000-07:00

so they have this magazine here written by students, its supposed to be funnny, and it is mostly, i dont get all the jokes, but heres a post.

Internationally renowned impersonators The Yes Men revealed at a press conference yesterday they have been impersonating internationally renowned impersonators The Yes Men for the past ten years.

"No one in the organization had any clue," said Yes Men spokesman imitator Mike.

"I think we've done a good job of exposing The Yes Men for what they are: a bunch of frauds," said imitation Yes Men spokesman imitator Mike.

The Yes Men are expected to release a video of their exploits later this year, which is certain to discredit The Yes Men while finally giving The Yes Men their due acclaim.
-Max Ebert

Anyway, they give them out free in the middle of campus, so take one if you want a laugh, all tho warning, not everything is funny, some stuff is just sick, others are dumb enuf to tickle.

new plan

2009-10-18T21:19:00.000-07:00

i dont know if this will work, but from monday to friday, i now plan to set aside

a hour for each of the following
-math
-cs
-econ
-reading news/practicing chinese/spanish

i dont even know if i have that many hours a day, but ill try and see how it goes.

half the semester is over and im floating, if i wanna do really well......

unrelated-
i was looking thru the list of majors and the only majors that look interesting
-cs
-econ
-mayb psych

so i think ill take a psych class soon to see if i enjoy it, but for now gotta do well in econ and cs, lay a strong foundation so i can build on it easily

drama

2009-10-18T21:14:00.000-07:00

so, u watch tv, and there is so much drama in high school,

she likes the guy i like, he is dating a few girls, shes flirting with him........

yeah it seems that it doesnt change in college, well at least not for freshman.

kinda sad, some ppl just fall in love? and cant focus on studying,

one theory is a lot of ppl are not used to seeing the oposite sex everyday and living so close to them,

another theory is ppl who didnt go to co-ed schools were never exposed to the opposite sex and now........

i think both theories r true, and now im so happy that i went to a co-ed high school and have been on so many camps with girls. so for me, nothing feels strange and im free to focus on school,

i like my life

concerts at berkeley greek theater

2009-10-10T23:10:00.000-07:00

so, every now and then, they have concerts at the berkeley greek theater, and friday they had a jason mraz concert,

no didnt wanna spend 60 bucks, so we went onto a balcony nearby and listened from there (foothill dorm, they r kinda lucky, they can hear every concert for free)

speaking of lucky

and then he was like this is a happy little hippy song

these of course r the pirated videos, there r better ones taken by the ppl actually in the theater, just look for them thru these videos

poker

2009-10-07T15:07:00.000-07:00

so, i have most of my fun from playing poker at the moment.

i play soccer IMs twice a week, and ref 2-3 times a week, but poker seems to give me the most fun, i think its cuz it goes on for a while, like risk.

anyway, so far, played 3 times for real (money), won (means left with more money than i put in) twice and lost (means lost all the money i initially put in) once. so net profit so far, pretty good.

gota get better at the game so i can enjoy(win) it more tho, gota start reading ppl and acting so ppl who try to read me get thrown off.

haloween comin up, darn i wanted to dress up as the joker, but there is a christian fall conference at the same time :( mayb ill dress up as the joker at the conference, would that be weird?

midterm 1

2009-10-07T15:02:00.000-07:00

so, midterms for math and cs r back,

math 23/35, average 20, median 21. standard deciation 6, 350 ppl in the class. so above the average, good enuf cuz i didnt do enuf work, gota make up for it on midterm 2.

cs, 34/40, not too bad, only 1 person got full marks, average was 30, so im doin ok.

econ is the problem, not sure of my grade yet, but 600 ppl in the class, test is out of 100.

today professor came in and said, i like it when the median is 40, cuz then we can differentiate the A and A- !!!!!!!!!!

he wants us to fail almost, basically, well now i am even less optimistic about doin well, well, gotta get ready for the next one.

game day

2009-10-03T23:34:00.001-07:00

so, i watched my first game as a berkeley fan (kinda, im not that much of a fan yet)

disapointing.

i should have just studied instead of trying to multitask.

ending score USC 30, berkeley 3. pathetic

this was the first game i watched, now i am happy i didnt spend $80 on season tickets, ill prob go check out the mens and womens soccer teams, at least they wont lose by 27 :p

anyway, moral of the story, i dunno no moral, but basically we dont have as good a team as everyone seems to think

we did show signs tho, there were some 30 seconds in the game where we played ok, but that was it. well maybe next year.

i should get back to what really matters, my studying.

work

2009-10-01T09:55:00.000-07:00

so, im too busy to blog much, but now i have a schedule, and am settled down for the semester.

cs midterm was yesterday, very tricky. econ and math midterms on monday, well c how it goes.

anyway, i got hired to be a referee for IntraMural soccer so I have been a referee for a few games now.

It is pretty fun, other than standing in the cold, i quite like it, watching soccer as a job :)

and, i get a bit of excercise as well as a study break.

Plus you meet new ppl, and they all are like thank you ref after the game.

Last night, a team came with fans, and they were crazy, I think they were drinking before the game, anyway, they were shouting and chanting (it was 11 at night) and yelling. Then at half time, they pulled a radio out of somewhere and blasted music which they proceeded to dance to. I enjoyed watching, it was fun.

Then they scored.... hahah

they all started doing cartwheels and stuff, (im pretty sure they had something before they came)
but yeah, its nice to have a job i enjoy, now i just need to pass the math and econ midterms......

classes

2009-09-15T09:48:00.001-07:00

so math 1b, blehhhhh

its actually fun so far but i say bleh cuz its one of the most failed classes in berkeley,

and i just got C+ for 1a, the class b4 1b.

anyway, my roomate got an A last yr, hopefully i can get tips.

then we have CS :) im enjoying it so far, programin is fun

and econ, im enjoying that too, my discusion has bout 30 students, wat r the odds, in the 30 theres another malaysian n a singaporean

my prob. of gambling class im goin for in an hour, still deciding if i like the class.

thats it for now

lounge

2009-09-15T09:43:00.000-07:00

so my lounge is supposed to be a study lounge, but so far its been a happenin hang out spot.

ppl from all over come hang with us, and we have been playin a lot of bang, mafia and poker, besides just talkin and hanging.

but we should be studying......

so yesterday i got ppl to vote that we have study hours in the lounge.

they voted after 9pm monday thru thursday and after 10 sunday.

i dont think its goin to work, i think well have to push it all back an hour and mayb.

anyway, well c how it goes, my floor is cool like 30 of us here and most of them r cool, yesterday is was someones birthday and we all signed a card.

this sunday they r plannin on havein a party, sound like trouble.....

so far

2009-09-15T09:34:00.000-07:00

ok, so first thing to say, college is bustling n busy.

theres always somethin to do, too many events to attend/ check out.

last friday night, i decided to skip inter varsity large group because i wanted to check out a chinese group, i think its Chinese Students Association.

so i checked it out :) it was game night, we played poker and by the end when i was leaving, this guy was like hey wats ur number, ill call u to play sometime.

anyway, then i hung out with IV ppl, we went to surprise someone whos birthday it was.
then i went to hang in my study lounge but just as i was sitting down x(guy from my floor) came back from a frat party.

he just returned when he said he had to go back and get the others (half the floor went to party together) because some of them were too drunk

so, i went with him to help, fun :) drunk ppl are

so, there was crying, whining, a lot of laughing, and a lot of patience required, but in the end we had everyone back on the floor without anyone gettin in trouble for public drunkeness.

anyway, most were pretty sober, just 3 of them were off. anyway, after convincing them to go to bed, (yes it took a lot of effort), i went to bed.

the next morning 2 of them said there not goin to drink for 3 months :) well c how long that lasts.

anyway, that was friday night, prob goin to be a repeat in the coming week.

mayb i wont drink at all while im in college, since there are so many who could do with a 100% sober friend hanging around waiting to hold them while they stumble home

first week of college

2009-08-27T18:12:00.000-07:00

so wats it like, well all the clubs set up booths most of the week, they give us flyers n stuff.

the dorm has different activities like free icecream n stuff. i met almost everyone on my floor, forgot all their names tho.

my roomates r nice, both sophmores, we get along fine (so far at least). my room is bigger than i expected. Bathrooms r coed (yeah kinda sad for the girls, but most guys lift up the seats now)

berkeley= liberal, no christians?

WRONG, they had this massive event JESUS in Berkeley.

26 differnet clubs organised it together and more than 500 ppl showed up.

we had worship, n then were introduced to each group, some other groups exist that were not part of the big event, some of them a bit sketchy tho.

so anyway, there is a big community of christians in berkeley even tho it might not seem so.

i went to a welcome event from the Chancelor, seems like a nice guy, doin his job like he means it.

thats it for now, everyone is tryin to meet each other.

I like the dining hall right below my dorm, im actually enjoyin the food, like its not ok, its good.

and im stealing my next days breakfast when i go in for dinner n lunch, so i enjoy it all the more.

thats all for now, i felt guilty for not postin for so long

summers over

2009-08-27T18:02:00.000-07:00

so fall has begun, summer ended, i got a C+ for math after doin all my work and studyin, looks like i gota do extra work just to get a B.

spanish i passed so thats good, but wont be continuin on just yet, have more pressin matters.

I just decided im not goin to worry bout a job in the fall, cuz its too stressful.

so, im goin to try n become a refree for the intramural but thats it. unless i find some super nice job.

im taking 2nd part of calculus, economics 1 and CS 3.

after first 2 days of class, i have homework from all 3 of them.

math well c how it goes, its the continuation of my C+ grade.

econ 1 i liked the first class, its lookin more n more like a posible major.\

math 24, its a 1 unit seminar on probability of gambling

CS, i jst got back from the class............

everyone else in the class almost has done programin b4, so thats bad news for me.

monday to thursday im booked with classes.

friday 9-10 then i have the weekend. but i was goin to work friday saturday, church on sunday

that wouldn have given me any time to do anythin.

i decided if i wanna have any chance of goin for bible study and doing well in college and still enjoy myself (vs hating college), i had to forget bout workin on friday n saturday.

so now, i feel much better, i have time to study and relax (play).

i hope i get the refree job tho, that will b nice to get mayb $20 a week or somethin while enjoyin myself and being outdoors.

im also takin a weights class and a voleyball class so i prob dont need any more exercise unless i am done studying (not goin to happen)

but in the end, im happy cuz now im not workin, big burden gone.

that wouldn have worked

first college credits

2009-08-16T09:11:00.000-07:00

WOOOOHOOOOO, i passed :)

thats it, i managed to do spanish 1 while taking math (altho math might not b a very good grade, im hopin for at least a B)

but, the good news for now, i passed my spanish, job half done.

It was really, I just signed on to bearfacts, and under academic records, summer 2009 there it was waitin for me.

Ah it feels nice to have my first 5 college credits :)

summers over

2009-08-16T08:13:00.001-07:00

so just like that the summer session flew by. It was kinda sad to realise spanish n math class were over, but instructors were really cool, and the classes were fun. n guess wat i also learned stuff :)

well, math final went sorta bad, cuz i was hoping for an A, but i messed up 10% (one of the questions) sad part, i had done that question b4 and got it right. well lifes tough i guess.

spanish was ok, cuz i just needed 70/100. The hard part was I only studied 2 hours for the final. The good part - all the work i did durin the 2 months paid off.

Overall, it was a good semester, I got used to college sorta, kinda know how to get around if i need to.

went to 2 intramural finals :)

finished my first 9 units of class.

Well, now i have 1 week off b4 i start again, ahhh time to relax b4 i take the plunge again.

Summer 2009 Acounts

2009-08-15T15:31:00.000-07:00

Thats it, looks like the total cost for 8 weeks of college in the summer was just less than 6000 (with a trip to vegas though :) )

well i had a good time, n i passed spanish, prob got a B in math, got off to a good start, I think it was kinda worth it, especially since 2000+ was in scholarships :)

We werent supposed to be playing but another team got disqualified for fielding players that didnt sign up. So, we were back in the competition, and the worst team, so we we had to play the best team. Well, WE WON!!!! hahaha, yes thanks to me :P i made a pinpoint cross that our striker headed in, then i scored the second goal. So just like that from team that wasnt supposed to be in the playoffs (thats wat they call it here, everythins playoffs), were in the finals!!!

BUT, thats on wednesdat at 6, 5 to 8 i have a math review class, sad huh, gota run back n forth.

registration block released

2009-08-05T20:15:00.000-07:00

ah, finally, after geting my transcripts delivered from another country and submiting them in person,

my registration status has been unblocked. Im now a normal student again :)

that was kinda scary bcuz it almost seemed like they were looking for ways to find a problem with my transcripts.

But, good thing I submitted everything honestly when I applied, everything is back to normal now.

Kinda sad tho, the admin here, I was talkin to someone else who said received an email saying they hadnt received his transcripts. N he said they were rude to him, which is the same feeling i got.

So, if ur dealing with the admin staff at Berkeley, if they r rude to u, dont be alarmed, its not u, its just how they roll.
