"star" sighting?

song had to cut her trip short (she flew back to kl tonight), so i took her out for brunch this morning. we went to lola's 'cuz it's not too far from her dad's place, and we saw...that 90210 guy, ian something-or-ruther. we had to walk past him to get to our table, and i think we made eye-contact (he was wearing sunglasses). random...but that made me and song start rehashing our 90212 high school days...our 10-year reunion's coming up!

status report: i'm almost done with my project (need to go to school to use the computers there for some finishing touches)...now i gotta focus on my grant proposal. stinkin' applications...i remember when i first applied for grad school my senior year at berkeley, my only solace was the thought that those were probably the last applications i would ever have to do...little did i know. and now i realize that going into research...i will probably never be free from having to get letters of recommendation, financial info, cvs, and personal statements/research proposals, among all the other little things they ask of you. but i guess to look on the bright side, at least most organizations have electronic submission capabilities...am i dating myself when i say i remember using typewriters to fill out application forms?

Hey Evelyn-

It's Gene, from Berkeley, Kris' friend. I don't know if you remember me. I happened to come across your blog by a series of events. Good to see you're doing well.

Hi Evelyn-

I'm fine, thanks. So you're at UCLA? It turns out I work in CHS, as a lab peon. UCLA is sunnier than Berkeley, but the food isn't as good. That's my assessment.
