ejc dance.

zhi stole those flowers from the foothill dining commons.

you guys got to see a MOVIE in ee40 lecture? you friggin babies!

mi-nhan is the girl on the 4th floor of my building who complained about some rape thing. i stopped by the newsvan and chatted with mr. reporter.

ellie along with some more intervarsity crowd in some scavenger hunt during finals week.

homies.

ee40 final exam photos.

even more pics of myself.

pics from this year's gloomy cal day. i saw clee! (the asian guy in the first 2 pics) i also found that jack (dude in front in the 5th pic) is part of the club "cal students for a non-religious ethos". their original, much more offensive club name was hidden on the side of the table so i took a picture of the white sign. and i dunno what kind of show that half-naked guy in the last picture was putting on.

paul!

dennis and mikefu!

unit 1/unit 2 boat dance. 1st picture: judy (no longer looks stoned). 2nd picture: jenn! and david! 3rd picture: derrill! 4th picture: paivot (but can't really spell his name) from one of my classes taekwondo or hankido or something like that. 5th picture: nelson! 6th picture: vanilla ice. 7th picture: those girls did a really lame attempt at singing "pretty woman".' 8th picture: my hallmates!! i forgot what they were singing though. 9th picture: ricky martin! 10th and 11th pictures: the gnarly chaperone. last picture: my floormate diana has supposedly had some boyfriend called "pascal" for the last six months, but we haven't seen him around. it was once reported that he was a tall black guy, another time someone said he was a short white guy, and another time a skinny asian guy. that last picture is the pascal who was supposedly "her date for the boat dance." but we all saw that he ditched her on the boat for the whole three hours.

laura's birthday at thai house. 2nd to last picture has laura trying to blow out one candle, and there's a hot waitress in the background. after eating, we went back to freeborn hall for cake and stuff. we got busted for lighting candles inside the hall by the r.a. jenny gong featured in the last picture.

randum pics from my building, many of which were taken on the last day of school.

i figured i needed more pictures of myself here.

this is vishnu. i put all these pics of him here cuz he complained he was underrepresented on my webpage. for you girls who think he's cute i revealed his phone # here.

this is why you don't go letting mark fiddle with your camera. but mark requested 'take those nasty pictures off!'

this is tsu-jae. she's teaching ee40 this semester. lately, it's not uncommon that you hear some of the male students whispering in lecture, "hmmm. the professor looks really nice today."

lately jing has been laying on his ass a lot. it almost looks as if mark has taken away some of jingcho's muscle tissue.

professor varaiya taking a smoke with bart and some other guy that i don't know. update: annie has kindly identified the middle unnamed guy as tunc simsek, her ee20 t.a.

photos from another one of AAA's asian-type dances. first pic: jeryl, cindy, lauralim, richard, back-of-jessie's head. story: jeryl met up with the guy commonly known as 'tom' and they nearly duked it out; cindy got to know mr. 'tom' well later on; richard hella macked on jessie all night, and they started dating 2 weeks later. the two girls outside in the 3rd pic are christine and melissa. the guy in the latter 2 pics you probably know from soda. he lives on the 4th floor of my building.

and i just had to have a picture of howard here. mark jumped in on the 2nd one.

asuc ball! first 2 are pics of the food. 3rd is a randum picture with linda in it. did you guys really expect me to scan the couples pics and post them here? well, i've now realized that the digital world often fails to 'capture the moment.' hence digimon sucks. if you'd like to see any meaningful pictures from the dance, go ask carol or me for a wallet pic. we also have some material evidence on why digimon sucks if you'd like.

dinner. this begins the new years pictures.

the high-schoolers at dinner started making out in the garden in the back.

right before the dance, i took a picture of the crowd of policemen on bicycles. somehow the camera completely changed the image and now it looks like a lasershow.

i saw the world-famous F.O.B. paul liu and his crowd on the boat!

i saw lance there! and that's his sister bonnie.

i saw justin there! kinda zombie-like.

alcatraz right behind me in this picture. it's kinda dark though.

the fireworkz at 12:00. and that's it for the new years pictures.

jim's dad!

jim's brother!

seattle tourist attractions. pretty sad.

on the campus of the seattle software giant.

i went to gameworks again. here's a full picture of the one-story high version of great america's drop zone that i told you guys about from the summer.

still at gameworks. this video game here is called "dance dance revolution." kinda reminds me of nintendo's old power pad, which bombed.

hankido class.

here's how the story goes. jenny comes along and mark starts talking to her. then i steal her attention away from mark with my stunningly cute pokemon. having psyched myself up this way, i challenge lior to a pokemon battle.

some photos in my camera from the tau beta pi initiation and banquet. as you can see christina is overrepresented here. and i dunno how but some jerk fudged me out of the last picture.

to begin my collection of big game pictures, we have here the cast of universal soldier 3. i guess the projectiles didn't really come out these pictures, but the story is that the civilians fought back against the soldiers by throwing a ton of water bottles at them.

this one let me take a picture with him, but like in the movie he shows no emotions.

meet melody, gunn high school class of 2000. she hopes to attend berkeley this fall, but thinks she might not get in and end up going to stanford like the rest of the kids at her high school. anyway, keep your eyes peeled next year.

three stanford football players victoriously jog around the track carrying roses to boast that they're going to the rose bowl.
update 1/1/2000: stanford gets whooped in rose bowl.

right after stanford claimed victory, i put on that red shirt and walked to the other side to see if there was an easier path to rushing the field. up at the fence i saw this foreign guy.
"hello," i say.
"no." he replies.
"how are you?"
"no, don't pass."
"i was just saying hi."
"no don't pass or you will be arrested."

here's sermed right outside the stadium. i say hey sermed. i ask sermed he's a junior right. i say doesn't that mean if berkeley loses next year he can have the memory of losing every big game in his entire undergraduate career.

drive-by after the big game. in the top car i see lewis liu and anand kannan. in the bottom car i see dave peng and bonnie chump. don't recognize any of those other guys though.

i stole this cool jacket. and that's it for big game pictures.

saw a clone of sri in 277 soda.

professor oldham's laptop crashed again. hard to see here, but there's a scandisk running on the overhead.

so i'm sitting on my ass in weight-training class. one minute, nothing's happening. the next minute, i see brian harvey on the leg press machine. i rush to my backpack to pull out my camera. i return 10 seconds later and find that he's gone. i ask jonrlee, "dude! where did brian harvey go!" jon tells me he went out the door. i walk out and find him doing his achilles stretches. i wait patiently for him to go back into the weight room so i can get a pic of him working out. instead he goes to the locker room. i follow, then i see him weighing himself. i think, ahh, maybe he'll go back to the weight room now. instead he goes to his locker. darn turns out he's done for the day and i won't get a pic of him working out.
"hey brian.", i say. "hey *pant*", he replies.
"i'm jim. you may remember me from such famous classes as cs61a."
"*pant*"
"can i take a picture of you?"
"sure. *pant*"
and that's the story of how i took a picture of brian harvey in the rsf locker room.

EJC at ABC restaurant. there was a false fire alarm at oakland ice rink so we got kicked out of the rink and stranded in oakland.

and we turned all bitter aggressive so we stuffed some thug in the trunk.

i barted over to csu's 'U6' dance. the dance was pretty cool. the girl up on stage is linda low, that asian singer who shoes up at every asian dance. there was this cool 'VIP lounge', but since nobody was wearing any tags that identified themselves as 'very important' anybody could wander in and out of that place. the dance also had enough cigarette smoke to make some good smoked ham.

jaime's room.

mug shots of my floor. left to right: martin, my RA; jenny, my neighbor's neighbor; and shady brady.

and my roommate george. playing final fantasy 8.

left: john. right: tina. man i geek out at the library way too much.

jenny chen again doing what she's doing in the other picture way below. when i took the picture she said 'you missed!'
update 6/24/2000: i took the picture off the web.

microsoft took us to bison's brewery. the guy on the far left is the waiter and he's a jerk. he goes, "can i see some id?" i show him my berkeley id. he goes, "you got any other id?" i show him my stanfurd id. he goes, "well, i can't serve you then." i'm like, "uhh, huh? i'm hungry why can't i eat?" he goes, "i mean i can't serve you alcohol." i'm like, "oh that makes it clearer. just by the way i look you assume i came here to drink. thanks a lot you bigot."

at the brewery. my friend sissie. at the time of this picture almost 21.

still at the brewery. jingcho randomly digging through my wallet.

i brought a camera inside the pitch-black tactile dome at the exploratorium so i could show you guys what it really looks like inside.

mai, eilieen, and melinda karaoking. a loud bunch of freshmen.

it's carol! expert photographer david alvarado is holding the camera here. much improvement over that one really blurred photo that i took of her over the summer. it is unfortunate though that, in these pics, the world is tilted 30 degrees or carol's mouth happens to be stuffed with food.

a couple of mechanical engineering girls were taking pictures on the ice. so i took a picture of them taking pictures on the ice.

my roommate richard. i need to get a pic of my roommate george too.

aacf food, and some people in the background.

the top of jingcho's head in 277 soda.

the bottom of lisa's head (and the rest of her body) at the library.

that's amar hanging out in the library. on the left is lior. rightmost is sanjay. i don't remember that girl, but the guy sitting next to her is freaking disgusting. he coughed every 30 seconds to spread his germs. later that night, amar challenged all of us to an arm wrestle to show that he had been working out.

lior then got kicked in the nuts so he keeled over.

the photographer is spying on joel (at the library still).

the back of david lee's head. a weird thing happened before i took that picture. david just rested at the balcony smiling straight ahead for five minutes until everybody noticed him. then he socialized, then he walked away. until next time for more exciting stories of the library.

hkn vs. asme on ice. top: group picture with rishi saying peace. bottom: group picture with rishi about to hug the cameraman.

the blair witch project.

the blair witches.

group sex at lake tahoe.

jenny chen. she was worried that she'd look disgusting on film so she closed her eyes and tried to turn her head away when i took the picture, making her look even more disgusting. she then beat me until i promised not to put the picture on the web.
update 6/24/2000: i took the picture off the web.

boat dance XXVIXI. left to right, me with my newly awarded black belt, sheila with her ex, romy with her ex, and susie standing all alone.

warren trying to push me out of the tree, while i'm wearing my 30th annual uc open tae kwon do championships t-shirt. i retaliated by flipping around and doing a spinning rear kick which knocked warren out of the tree instead.
