i had my 1st ucla exam today. it was an undergrad midterm, and i haven't had a quiz or anything yet, so i had no idea what to expect. also, there has been almost no class interaction in the class so far, so i didn't know how good the students were either. well, we were allowed to make a 1 full page cheat sheet. i wrote small and comprehensively summarized the 300 pages we've covered, along w/ the 300 slides. it ended up doing me no good at all! the test required you to apply what you know to modify, critique, or come up with new ideas. it was 2 full hours and was all theory, requiring thinking outside-the-box. when i left the exam, it definitely seemed understandable why UCLA's cs program outranks harvard, columbia, yale, etc on the lil u.s. news report rankings. those lil undergrads are good. at FIT, i prolly would have gotten a high A. here, i just hope i passed. seriously.
on my way to the gym, i saw some break dancers monkey'ing around. so i recorded them at their worst, non-eventful moment. i thought the shaky-cam approach would make it appear more realistic. jk, sorry about the shaking.
