SOPHMORE YEAR 2008-2009

SEPTEMBER

- moving in on my birthday AGAIN! dinner with Merry, Caitlin, and Sheri
- playing UNO at Caitlin's apartment wither her and Ron and his special UNO skillz
- first days of Spanish and all that clapping we had to do...like how we had to clap for someone becaue he wore sunglasses..?

OCTOBER

- Halloween as Mel! And the random guy who we saw and thoughtknew was supposed to be Jemaine
- free burritos at Chipotle. Yes that's right, we got in line multiple times
- falling asleep in History 10C everyday
- trip to Sacramento with Ari and Caitlin because we wanted to go to the No On Prop 8 protest...only to discover that it was already over
- watching "How to Lose Friends and Alienate People" with four other people in the theater
- "Sex Drive" screening... why do people bring their 8 year olds to a R rate movie? I know it's free and everything, but really.

NOVEMBER

- trip to the Vacaville Outlets on Veteran's Day [the random Tuesday we had off]
- Mel's during Thanksgiving weekend and our lurking around the jukebox
- Christmas tree lighting at Union Square
- that one night where I youtubed all these old 90s boy bands and rediscovered the "Quit Playing Games With My Heart" music video. SO FUNNY.
- knitting classes at the Craft Center

DECEMBER

- finals! and how I was distracted the entire time by Jonas Brothers secrets
- LOUIS GARREL and "Les Chansons d'Amour"
- get together at Garnet's where we discovered Jenny's obsession with Haley Joel Osment and Macaulay Culkin
- "The Curious Case of Benajmin Button" was good, but overrated/"Marley and Me" was mediocre/"Yes Man" was only good because of Rhys Darby and his Harry Potter parties...and Zooey was cute
- Disneyland/SD trip with Merry, Jenny, Diana, and Angela!
- "TO THE LEFT! TO THE LEFT!" , "intimate lighting", "No, seriously, you don't have to be smart to be in AP Chinese." "Yeah....oh wait."
- that cannibalism movie that Merry forced us to watch while in La Jolla.. "Delicatessen" I think it was? and falling asleep while watching "Memento." I just remember waking up and the dvd menu was playing over and over again.
- I was on my feet for 17 hours New Years Eve

SONGS THAT'LL REMIND ME OF FALL QUARTER
"Je N'aime Que Toi" - Louis Garrel, Ludivine Sagnier, et Clothilde Hesme

JANUARY

- two words: "TOWELHEAD" and Sexhart
- rainy, cold weather
- jambalaya and jai ho-ing at Angela's house
- Janet and Angela came up to Davis for the first time!
- the beginning of "regal stroking"
- submitting my EAP application...making it mostly official
- teaching Mara how to jai ho
- Caitlin's feiesta!

FEBRUARY

- PILLOW FIGHT AT THE EMBARCADERO. I will never forget the stuffiness and the feeling of feather dust entering my airways
- falling asleep in ECN 102 almost everyday
- buying my FOTC tickets for May!
- one of the best classes ever = "Music in the Batman Movies" mostly because of Professor Fetzner who is probably the cutest, most endearing old man ever
- making the "World's Best Lasagna" with Caitlin and Merry...somehow we didn't eat it until 1am
- WonderCon! Star Trek and Watchmen panels were cool, Terminator Salvation panel was sort of lame [McG was annoying.."WHO WANTS TO SEE MOON'S BOOBS?!"...]. I'm still sad I missed the "Sit Down, Shut Up" panel but Janet and Angela are super cool and got me a signed poster!
- watching the first half of "Up" for free! I loved those random guys who came in fake screaming at each other. Hilarious. Oh and everyone clapped anytime someone entered the theater.

MARCH

- Watchmen!
- suddenly getting sucked back into the Spice Girls right around finals
- worst test of my life = final for ECN 102. Poor TA's who couldn't figure out how to turn on the lights.
- Spring Break = swimming and karaoking. Janet randomly popping up behind us when we were trying to look for her...in the opposite direction

SONGS THAT WILL REMIND ME OF WINTER QUARTER

"Jai Ho" - A.R Rahman [duh]
"Stop" - Spice Girls
"Korean Karaoke" - Flight of the Conchords

APRIL

- Davis Public Library's book sale and then making crepes afterwards
- trying to do my picture of the day [I'm failing]
- taking swimming aerobics again [which I actually didn't mind so much this time around] and that one time we had to swim in the rain
- hating CMN 102. So boring.
- that day Caitlin and I went to her grandparent's ranch out in the middle of nowhere and took all those photos in front of stuffed animals [not the toy kind, but the real taxidermy kind]
- loving "History of Film Music" and Prof. Ortiz's comments. Por ejemplo: "Try not to make any mistakes." [right before our ridculously easy quiz]
- Picnic Day and filming for AGTV....that day sadly ended with me puking in front of a random apartment complex. HAHAH. Again, where did that random girl on the bike who said "Hold back her hair" come from?

MAY

-FOTC COUNTDOWN!!!
- Star Trek with the weird guy sitting next to me who was panting during the climax
-Whole Earth Festival which was a lot more fun than Picnic Day.
- Asian American Film Festival was a lot of fun. I loved "Kissing Cousins" and "Ping Pong Playa."
- Caitlin scrambling to finish Ari's birthday present. I will never forget how we rushed out of her car to Long's because we thought it closed at 10 pm when really IT IS OPEN 24 HOURS. We tried to watch "The Holiday" that night and I ended up falling asleep.
- lime popsicles
- finally going to the Rec Pool and getting some relief from the intense Davis heat. Afterwards we biked to In-N-Out and then Borders where we were yelled at for sitting on the ground.
