Christmas Party 2010

I'm Natsume.

At the night of December 25, 2010 at around 6.30 pm, Ubaydah went to a Christmas party at Glendora. There were 19 other people present there. They played numerous games including Super Street Fighter 4, Taboo, Charades, and many more. It seemed like Ubaydah was delighted to be able to attend that party.

In addition, they also exchanged gifts in a manner known as 'white elephant' in which they drew numbers and each of them picked a gift from the pile of gifts in increasing order. They were given two choices though. They can either pick a gift from the pile or steal it from another person. However, a single gift can only be stolen twice. This will continue on until everyone got a gift each.

The pictures below are the gifts pile. Thank you Haruhi for providing all the pictures.

If you noticed, the pile kept on getting larger and larger as more and more people came. Ubaydah won a set of coffee, syrup, and mug. He stole an alarm clock from another person but that clock was eventually stolen from him. The set below was stolen from another person as well and since Ubaydah was the second person who stole the gift, he got to keep it.

That concludes Christmas Party 2010. Farewell.

Merry X'mas!

Hi everyone! Merry Christmas! Haruhi-desu! XD

It's been raining for a week now and it finally stopped last Thursday. Ubaydah has been going to work in the rain. It's the holidays now, and he's currently enjoying it. We took a few pictures of Ubaydah going to work in the rain. He heard that it rained like 8 inches which is pretty unusual in Pomona, California.

Muddy puddles are not something that you see everyday in Pomona unless if there's a pipe leakage, sprinklers going off or something like that.

Ubaydah under a blue umbrella. Look at how wet the surface is.

Since it was the holidays, there's no one around. It's like a ghost town on campus. There were a few researchers around though like Ubaydah.

Since today's Christmas, Ubaydah is going to a Christmas gathering tonight. It's going to be a lot of fun! Hope your Christmas is a lot of fun too!

Have an awesome X'mas! Ubaydah told me to wish you all the same thing too! =D

All the best in your finals!

みなさん こんにちわ! Haruhi's here! I'm back! How are you doing?

Ubaydah just wanted to let you know "All the best in your exams!" to those who're taking them of course. =P

Starting tomorrow, it's going to be the finals week for students of Cal Poly Pomona. It's going to be a long week. Ubaydah doesn't have any finals. However, he does has some papers to write, exam to proctor, and meetings to attend. In fact, he has a meeting tomorrow (today technically coz it's already Monday).

Everyone, have a good week!

I also want to take this opportunity to introduce Natsume. She's also going to be writing in this blog once in a while. So, here she is!

I'm Natsume.

Hope to write soon.

Bye.

.................... thanks Natsume! XD


Have a good night! If you are having an exam tomorrow, study hard and all the best! =)

Goodbye BIO 115A Fall 2010!

Hello... My name is Sakura...

This would be my first post aside from my introduction post.

Um.. where should I start?

I know I have mentioned that I would be posting about something to do with video games, anime, and manga. However, it turned out that there's not much to talk about that stuff in this blog. If I can ever think of something, I'll probably post it.

Um, okay... last Wednesday was Ubaydah's last class that he taught for this quarter. All he has to do now is grade same papers as well as tally up the final grades for his students. He told me that he really enjoyed teaching! He also said that he was very thankful that his students were all good students, very respectful, and worked very hard. He couldn't have asked for something more. Many of Ubaydah's colleagues however, had trouble with some of their students. So, good for him then... :)

The picture above is the picture that Ubaydah took after his last class that ended at around 8pm. Thanks Haruhi for helping out in taking the picture. He was really tired afterward. He went to bed as soon as he got home... he fell asleep actually...

On a different note, Ubaydah is going to teach the same class again next quarter. がんばってね. I hope that his students would be as good as the last ones. :D

Um.. I don't think I have anything else to talk about for now...

So, have a good night. おやすみ. :)
