"Hope Lies in dreams, in imagination and in the courage of those who dare to make dreams into reality" - Jonas Salk
"I wanted to change the world. But I have found that the only thing one can be sure of changing is oneself." - Aldous Huxley
"Vision without action is a daydream. Action without vision is a nightmare." - Japanese proverb
I'm sarcastic and have a dry sense of humor. People think I have no sense of humor. Palm trees annoy me. I enjoy learning about other cultures and other people's way of life - I'm obsessed with cultural anthropology and myth.
I hate sunny days and love rainy ones. I love fall and winter. Foggy mornings make me happy. I enjoy long drives and listening to the rain. I'm random. I posses an overactive imagination that fills my head with furry creatures and slimy monsters that find their way into paper from time to time. I always have ideas for screenplays. I love tea, wine and porter ale; apple pie and carrot cake; I love food and enjoy cooking. I'm obsessed with Celtic and Japanese culture. I really like Spain and Germany.
I hate sunny days, reggaeton, hip-hop, fish (salmon and "fish & chips" are fine though), broccoli and people who act overly happy annoy me.

I think that sounds cool! I like romance and Zombies . I just saw Doom (zombie movie) last night and it was great. Yep vampires and zombies are two of my favorite things.
Paranoid androids just sounds cool, the rest sounded very smart and it was way over my head.
I know and it seems so easy. How can writing about myself be so hard I mean it's not like I have to do research or anything. Do you know what your short film is going to be about?
I'm trying to write my statement of purpose for graduate school and apparently you are supposed to give yourself at least a couple of months to write it. I now see why. My statement is absolutely horrible and I have a week to fix it.
My weekend was average I had to rush to complete a scholarship application, I watched a movie and made cinnamon rolls with my bff, drank some cheap wine, I got stuck in an elevator, I cleaned my apartment, went to el torito with some friends and went out for breakfast at hometown buffet, because for some reason I don't care how bad the food is as long as there is a buffet I am ridiculously happy, I think it's because buffets are perfect for frugal indecisive people who love to eat.
How was your weekend? and you can't just say good you have to give a long drawn out description like me.

Oh no that's not good, how did you go from getting better to getting worse? Maybe I did jinx you or something, oops. I won't jinx you anymore I promise so you can get better now. Yes Dr. Tsui does seem cool but I absolutely abhor physics. THat class is way too long. The entire time I was in class I was just looking at the clock waiting for it to be over. I don't see how physics will ever benefit me so it's just a big waste of time and did I mention that I HATE it?
Carlos? Hello? O Sea? crees que voy a checar mi myspace el 1er dia de clases? claro que no!!!!

I havn't officially started at UCSD yet, I start the 1st. I had two weeks of training at Scripps and that was really really fun, I love it there. I'm taking Physics too on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Don't forget hiking in Torrey Pines and the Burnham Institute there close to UTC too.
I'm moving to UTC in San Diego. The internship is funded by the California Institute of Regenerative Medcine so I'll be making iPS cells from patients with genetic disorders then differentiating them into neurons to study the disease. I could technically make iPS cells from my cells inject them into a mouse blastocyst implant it then get some really weird mouse/Amanda chimeras but I think I might get in trouble for that :). I'll be working in Dr. Gleeson's lab at UCSD.
Yeah being sick is no fun especially in this heat right before school starts.
Are you ready for school? What classes are you taking?
