¿Paella?

Hoy había paella para cenar en la residencia. ¿Paella? No, una especie de arroz de color amarillo y sin sabor alguno. No le han echado ni los huesos de la carne para darle sabor

Como la persona que servía en la barra era asiática, en lugar de paella teníamos ‘paela’

Hard work

This afternoon I had an appointment with my tutor here, Filip. I have a lot of work to do.

In this University everyone has an university card (Cal1card), for everything, library, meals, even the laundry. You can purchase credit and then waste it in everything, for example the dinning. I have noticed that my credit is the same after two dinners!

After eating a lot I needed go for a walk. I just went straight on the street to see International House, where I’m going to live in a few days. What has been my surprise! At the first floor there is a café. And a DJ was playing! The University Thursdays exist in Berkeley!! I don’t know if I’m going to study hard but what is true, the party is at home!

After that I went to Sproul Plaza, where is a hole on the floor, with a script "This soil and the air space extending above it shall not be a part of any nation and shall not be subject to any entity's jurisdiction." due to The Free Speech Movement, and what happen in the 60’s. That University has been ahead in liberties.
