Morning Routine

This is what I do every morning before I go to classes.

Coming Clean

This evening, I met the Dean of the School of Public Health. It was a great meeting, and he was very personable, especially after we found out that we were both from Toronto. It was sort of like that O.C. episode when Ryan and that other waiter bonded when they both realized they were from the Chino-area. After talking about our experiences and some of our perspective of student life, I decided to come clean and tell him the truth about something I've been hiding from him and the other students.

I am planning on taking HGH and steroids in the hopes of helping out the EPH softball team.

Now, let me explain. From what I've been told, the team is more of a "hitter's" team in that there aren't too many players who are power hitters. Well, with the high expectations coming from my signing, I feel the pressure already mount for me to delivery. I thought long and hard about what I should do as I've been training in the gym. And then it hit me. What would Barry Bonds do? I need to help restore the glory and esteem that the School of Public Health once had in the softball world. This is my ticket to do it.

I am now following the regiment dictated by the phenomenal book, Game of Shadows, which by the way, will soon replace Pumping Iron as the guide to muscle and body building. I know this will help me channel my inner Bruce Banner, I mean, Barry Bonds as I prepare for the fall season. After I told the Dean my plans, he quickly walked away and said he didn't necessarily want to hear about the plans. In my pespective, that in itself is a knowing approval and a thumbs up.

So all I have to say nowis, watch out School of Divinity! This is my domicile now!

Clean and Clear

The Garett Ng for Mayor campaign would just like to let all you loyal supporters out there know that despite Messr. Ng's inexplicable love for Daly City, Calif., and his shared heritage with pariah Norman Hsu, no money was accepted from this man, or anyone associated with him, during the duration of the campaign. This is not because of the alleged "illegality" of Messr. Hsu's donations: we care not about stupid campaign finance laws used to prevent rich men and women from buying their ways into elections (admittedly, we would do so ourselves, if we could); rather, we would never have accepted this tainted money because Hsu has shown himself to support a wide variety of Defeatocrat candidates and causes that stand in direct opposition to our stated platform: Four More Years!

So rest assured loyal supporters: Ng is clean and clear of the law! Let's here it: four more years! Four more years! FOUR MORE YEARS!

You Just Never Know

Last Friday, there was a grad student mixer at one of the grad student dorms. I went with my public health posse and within minutes, lost track of them as I made a beeline to the beer line. The line was a little bit longer, but free beer is free beer. A woman followed directly behind me and made a comment, "Is this the beer line?" I confirmed her suspicion and then introduced myself. One thing led to another and I found out that we both went to Cal. She introduced me to another new friend of hers who also went to Cal and all three of us spent like an hour talking about Berkeley and more importantly, the state of Cal football. The next day, huddled around a laptop in a boiling hot (and tiny) dorm room, we watched the second game of the season against Colorado State.

Despite being a few thousand miles away, it's just funny how this east coast-west coast connection is and how you meet people from your own university like that.

And onto serious business...

For 80% of the game, I was impressed with how Cal played on Saturday. The only thing I am still concerned about is the defense, which during one scary moment in the fourth quarter, almost gave up the game. Tedford better look into fixing this because there were easily 14 points that Colorado scored that were gifts by the Cal secondary.

At least we still moved up two slots in the rankings!

#10 Ranking - A Start

After the great performance last Saturday, Cal jumped a few spots in the rankings and is now #10. It's definitely a well deserved jump, and I'm glad the Bears made a statement on National TV. The game was not perfect though. While I thought the offense looked great, I am a bit concerned with our defense giving up so many points and allowing Tennessee to stay in the game until maybe around the fourth quarter. Regardless, I think it's a great start for the fighting Tedfords and I'm looking forward to next week's game against Colorado State

This is our domicile!

To ring in the new season, here's the classic Cal tv ad that used to air during our tv broadcasts. Cal Bears football is back!!!
