Best days of college! so far...;)

The first few weeks of college life at Rutgers, or rather a month now, have been so much ____. I can't really describe it in one word yet but after a month of balancing my time between work, fun, basketball, networking, family time, and studying, I feel like I have gotten to know who I really am, (only a tiny bit more).

I'm really fortunate to have made great friendships with JHsu and his group of friends. (As a commuter, I felt kinda lonely during the first few weeks of school... I almost began to think I wouldn't be able to make perfect friends as I did in high school, but this group of eccentric kids (eccentric in a GREAT way) made me think otherwise :).

Now that I think about it...our friendship (me and JHsu) really started when we were both waiting to ask a question to our MATLAB teacher and I let him go first. Due to unfortunate circumstances, we waited for 30 minutes before asking our questions; that's when we kinda-sorta became friends. haha. (By the way, I have Matlab 2011b on my USB so if anyone wants to install it, contact me!)

JHsu dorms with this guy named JZhu. JZhu is a super genius, hard worker, super friendly, super clean baller who makes life interesting, (well everyone does to a certain extent...). When I'm at his dorm, he's usually watching a series of Friends videos or helping people with stuff. Him and SSenko are in my macroeconomics class and boy is that class interesting. We watch fun videos for the first 5 minutes of class, like this one about the history of money.

SSenko is this Korean dude who's simply a great friend. He used more than half of his guest meal swipes on me to get me to eat with everyone in the dining hall, and we pretty much did a lot of things together so far at Rutgers. Hopefully that trend will continue as we continue our adventure.

While walking between classes today and organizing thoughts in my head, I started to think about the people I've associated with thus far in college. So I went to the SERC lounge to lay down on a couch and suddenly I started to feel very fortunate/grateful to be friends with JHsu's group. And then I started to wonder if I'd been an inconvenience to them for the past couple of weeks...and many unusual thoughts came to mind. I think the reason I began to ask myself a bunch of 'what if' questions is because I lack a sense of identity still. Hopefully college will fix that soon. The only remedy I thought of for the short term to get me out of the 'what if' world was to do physics problems, and so I did. On a side note: Thanks Dr. J for making physics so easy and interesting!
