so it dawned on me why i'm choosing water resources as my specialization.

first of all, i can't do traffic because it reminds of why i hate life. it also reminds me of dr. jay and seri park. they're the most pointless lecturers in the world. dr. jay is funny, and seri park is a cute asian chick, but they should be banned from teaching. you learn nothing anyway and wonder how you lived through 10 weeks of sitting in their lectures. so yeah, no traffic for me.

i can't do environmental because i'm afraid of thermo. i think the environment is interesting to study and to find ways to make it better and better would be cool, but i don't want to spend my 4th year worrying about whether i'll graduate or not just because thermo could keep me from graduating. if you go to uci, thermo is only offered during spring and summer, so if u fail it on your senior year, you don't graduate. i heard bad things about thermo and the ME guy who teaches it. one story goes, this one ME guy dropped out of school because he got badly whipped by thermo.

i can't do structures. more than half of all CEs are for sure to go on to structures, and i just don't want to be a part of that crowd. i don't want to go where most people are going because i want to feel that i'm doing this thing for myself and not because the majority of people of i know are doing it. i've based so many of my life decisions on my friends' decisions (i.e. i took ap us history because my best friend wanted to take it, and she wanted me to sit with her), so i guess this is my chance to actually do something based on what i think is right for me. and it's not structures.

what i think is right for me at this time is to go on to water resources. when i first thought of it as an option, i didn't really have a good reason for it. i just thought, if all the other ones don't fit me, then i guess water is the only choice. then CEE 20, 170 and 171 happened. in 20, i had the hottest CE ta in the world. at that time i didn't know that he's a water guy, but good thing he is and that i met (not really, but more like saw) him in 20. then in 170, i did pretty well. i heard nightmare stories about it, but i got a decent grade and that made me realize that water wasn't really as bad as people said it would be. then in 171, once again i had matt the hottie CE for lab. i'd say we had our defining moment. he tried to hose me in lab, which would have been annoying if he wasn't hott, but he is so it's all good.

so now i'm basing this big decision of choosing a specialization on john matthew thomas and what a hottie he is. you might think it's wrong, but it's how i feel and i don't care. i just hope he doesn't graduate before i do because i'll be sad.
