Hi!

I'm a flying squirrel. Years ago, I often went on RealCTY editing sprees. I still do sometimes, but nowhere near as often.

I can...sort of rave? And teach people? I cannot guarantee that I won't accidentally hit you (or myself) in the face with a glow stick or poi. You have been warned :) If you're interested, hmu I'm one of those crazy people with the spinning lightbulbs (aka poi).

I like you, I love you, I CTY you!

The following is so I don't forget the names of hallmates, RAs, instructors etc, but feel free to read.

Sites and Sessions

LOS 15.1

Course: Examining the Evidence

Instructor: Elicia

TA: Mark

Hallmates: June, Leah, Alexandra, Mio, Miranda, Chia-Hua, Elise, Thuivi, Natalie, and one more whose name I forget. She was Korean and from Los Angeles.

RA: Emily

Residence Hall: Huesman

This session gave me my first experience with a university cafeteria/dining hall. I discovered soda machines. Giving me access to those was a mistake. This was not a great session but it was good enough to make me want to come back.

PAL 16.1

Course: The Renaissance

Instructor: Kurt

TA: Zach

Hallmates: Makayla, Carrie, Grace, Jennifer, Anne, Lila, Chloe, Natalie, Sunny, and Stephanie. Stephanie never showed up.

RA: Dara

Residence Hall: Roble

Notable quotes:

• "In the unlikely event that I am decapitated and Zach is rendered unconscious, bring his unresponsive body there and await further. Adult. Assistance"
• "The HAWWWWWT POTATOES!"
• "You dimple!"

I could go on and on about how awesome my instructor and TA were this year. They made a huge effort to get us engaged and have fun with the course and didn't talk down to us. They were fantastic.

SUN 17.2

Course: Principles of Engineering Design

Instructor: David

TA: Melissa

Official Hallmates: Aileen, Chris, Brianda, Georgette, Mariana, May, Selina, Wendy, Stephanie, Nina, Karen, and Alina

Unofficial Hallmates: Sophie, Elise, Katherine, Judy, Alma, Julieta, and Dani

Official RA: Genesis

Unofficial RA: Sofi

Residence Hall: Campion 6th floor

Notable quotes:

• "The wall makes electricity!"

• "BRING ON THE ROASTED POTATOES!"
• "Where's Sofi?" (repeated many, many times)
• "OXYTOCIN!!!" *gives nearest person a hug*
• "Isaac! Step away from the vending machine!"

My instructor was feared by many. He looked threatening, sounded threatening, and acted threatening. We managed to overlook this and (mostly) thought he was awesome.

My unofficial hall and unofficial RA were the only reason I enjoyed this session and I love them all so much.
