I'm finally 24!!! Sooo old!!

Thank you so much to all of you who remembered! I'm really surprised so many people did! Thaaaaanks! =)

What did I do today?

I seriously was about to do laundry on my birthday, but good thing Jasmine called before I found an available machine. Anyhoo, I went to the mall with her and followed her around while she found stuff to wear for law interviews. She treated me to lunch/dinner (french toast, eggs, bacon! hahha). Then Trinh and her boyfriend Keiji took me to go salsa dancing!! We were in a class for 2 hours and then it was dancing for the rest of the night. My feet HURT! I can't imagine how those women keep at it in such high heels all night. People there are extremely good and they have so much fun with their moves. I sort of only remembered a little bit when I took ballroom dancing at UCLA and I really suck at following the teacher, she moved too fast. Anyways, I danced a lot, but mostly basic moves, some guys who danced with me later that night taught me some new moves, but I think I frustrated one very experienced guy. But yeah, it was a nice experience...

Another interesting thing! I got a text message this afternoon that said "happy birthday frances!" but no name of sender! And I couldn't recognized the 310 number... So I called back and I couldn't recognize the voice and it was hard to hear cuz I was in Jasmine's car, so I just kept chatting hoping I'd recognize who it was. But then she asked me what I was doing, and I said I started teaching this year, and she said "At UCLA?" And I said "No, Berkeley" and she was surprised; she had no idea I was at Berkeley now. So that got me really confused, who doesn't know I've been at Berkeley for over a year now?? That forced me to stop and ask "Sorry! But who is this??" And it was Roya!!!! I can't believe it! I haven't talked to her in so long and she remembered my birthday! Yeah, but it was weird that we haven't kept in touch so long that she had no idea where I was or what I was studying at all, though she remembered something about a math professor! What the heck? Anyhoo, I corrected her and said stats. Hehe...

So anyhoo, THANK YOU to (in no particular order *edit: actually, it's not very random, after awhile, I'm just adding people in chronological order... so now you know who remembered the latest and who forgot! ahhahahah!*):
