So I'm just sitting here at my mom's office on a cloudy day today since I didn't have school. However, I need to study for my Math exam. It's only 2.5 weeks into school and I already have an exam, can you believe it? Anyway, I'm just waiting for my friend, Ian, to get out of his Chemistry lab so we can study together.
While waiting for him I'm partly studying and partly surfing the web for interesting reads and came across a list of "25 Skills Every Man Should Know" published Popular Mechanics.
How many of these skills do you know how to do? How many girls out there know these skills? Are you more manly than you're boyfriend? If there are guys reading this blog right now and there's a whole bunch of these skills that you don't know how to do, don't fret. You can find the handy "How-To" guide right here.
So yesterday was Back-To-School, and I probably haven't mentioned this before on my blog, but I volunteered to be an orientation leader for a small group of first-years yesterday! At UBC, they have this large first-year orientation called ImagineUBC. Each group of first years is called a MUG (My Undergraduate Group). Originally, I had six Muggies, one of them didn't show up because she was on a vacation in India, and the other one never replied to any of my emails nor did they have a phone number I can call. So, in the end, I had 4 people in my group - which is actually considered pretty small since most other MUG leaders manage approx. 8-10 students; however, Computer Science is a special bunch, we only had around 50-something first-years and 9 MUG Leaders.
It reminded me a lot about my first year experience, and now I know how much work Nancy (my MUG Leader back in my first year) put in to make the day as enjoyable as she can for all of us. I had a great time at ImagineUBC yesterday and I hope my first-years did too. I really wish to do it again next year! We also had a new cheer this year... 3 new cheers to be specific:
We are Science UBC.
We're as smart as you can be.
But that's not everything we've got.
We're also really really HOT.
3.14159
We are science, we're so fine.
Physics, bio, chemistry.
You can't handle our degree.
We are, we are, science at UBC, and there's no greater faculty.
We've got the smarts, the looks and class.
We've got the spirit to kick your ... BOOT-Y.
The first two cheers were call-backs, so the Imagine Leaders yell out first, and the first-years follow during the pep rally. It was really difficult to follow because most of the MUG Leaders couldn't even hear when the cheer started. We were definitely drowned out by the Engineers. So in the end, we just started yelling "Sexy, Sexy Science" along with the commerce people who were actually cheering for all faculties for some reason- hahaha Commerce made a cool cheer for all of UBC and it goes something like this:
UBC We're hot to go!
H-O-T-T-O-G-O
(Awoot!) We're hot to go!
(Awoot!) We're hot to go!
