That What Friends Are For

New year. New courses. Same old Expressos. We had a lot of catching up to do, gossiping and bullshitting. Last Tuesday, a combination of Expressos, shots and a trimmer, resulted in a remarkable change in Eddie's complexion. Instead of the long lush loin mane, he woke up the next morning with uneven strands of hair sprawling from his head. We could fix most of it, but he still looks like a mafioso.

I'm actually stoked about the courses I'm taking this quarter. It's Machine Learning, which is another AI-course, Programming Languages, a course where you analyze the differences between languages, when to use which language and so on, Translation of Programming Languages, a course were we'll build our own compiler and, finally, an econ class, Climate Change, about the economic aspects of global warming and how to solve the problems.

I love being back in Santa Barbara! The weather is warm like a Swedish summer, except it's sunny all the time and not rainy. Even thought I had so much fun during the winter break, I've missed the Expressos. It's great just having friends spontaneously coming over for tea, wine or dinner, and watch the sun set over the sea from Soleil's garden. We go to the movies, we plan weekend trips and some (not me) are making trips in the weekends ... We live, we love, we laugh.

Today I joined the UCSB excursion club. The first thing I signed up for was skydiving.
