Incoming Freshman - Introduce yourselves

<p>I am from New Delhi too!!! wow.</p>

<p>all the people on this thread who want to meet the new students should check out the "facebook"</p>

<p>My name's Laura, and I live in Orange County. I'm originally from Pittsburgh, so I'm looking forward to all the out-of-staters who will be just as lost as I've been in SoCal. I go to Tesoro High School, and I can't wait to leave.</p>

<p>I'll be majoring in English with a concentration in Creative Writing, and I'm also contemplating a double major--or at the very least a minor--in Philosophy. Even though there isn't any money in it, I love writing and I'm very excited to be able to pursue it in Los Angeles. I plan on getting involved with various literacy, tutoring and writing projects at UCLA, as well as going abroad to teach English and gain some perspective.</p>

<p>I definitely look forward to meeting all you incredible people; college has been a long time coming.</p>

<p>FREEBIRD- are you coming to delhi in the summer?</p>

<p>Would the New Delhi UCLAers like to set up a meeting or something? We could all have coffee somewhere in New Delhi.</p>

<p>i really wonder if i would have gotten in if i applied for an L&S major =. something that I will never find out.</p>

<p>I think we need more estrogen relpies up in here...sheesh! haha I'm Janene Dorio. Headin to UCLA in the fall. I'm part Japanese, Italian, and French (which is commonly mistaken as hispanic, pero soy gringa) I got to school at Morro Bay High School (surfers know where I'm talking about ;-) Morro Bay is in San Luis Obispo County and near Cal Poly. I'm entering as an "undeclared life science" but I plan to go prepsych. Psych, according to my friends is a "fake" "jock" major, but whatever, at least all the "fake jocks" will tilt the curve in my favor =-) I applied for a double res hall, late night, and as the applicaiton put it "I would not like a roomate who does not drink alcohol" haha I'm on the facebook (Janene Karla Dorio), so 09er's feel free to message me there! I'll see you crazy kids in the fall! Peace out...go Bruins!</p>

<p>rajinthebox-
thats a good idea ..i wanna get in touch too but not too many ppl from new delhi go to ucla so lets start a thread if there is anyone theyll reply but i dont think they'll b too many ppl..... im from the biggest , poshest school in delhi and i dont think even 1 person applied to ucla !</p>

<p>Name's Jc. I wanted to go to Cal cuz i'm incredibly liberal and i liked the open social environment and i just felt more free, but hopefully UCLA isnt as trendy or superficial as my current high school in Westlake (ventura county, north LA area). Attending undeclared phys sci, trying to switch to aerospace engineering. Top dorm choice is plaza (deneve).</p>

<p>Hey, I'm from TOHS!
Yeah, I heard UCLA was sort of like an extension of Westlake, which was an initial turn-off for me ;-) but that's okay, I'm sure there will be lots of chill, interesting people.</p>

<p>for those of you who said u wanted to major in communications, what did u put for now? undecided?</p>

<p>I'm Stephen and I go to Temecula Valley High School in Temecula in southern california, about an hour north of San Diego on the 15.
I like sports (just finishing up my last high school season in tennis) and math/science. I will be majoring in materials engineering at ucla.
I'm hoping to stay in the plazas</p>

<p>fussball...I'm majoring in materials engineering also. Did you attend theengineering orientation?</p>

<p>HIIi im jooni and im goin to la in the fall i applied for a double in residence hall and i already have a roomate umm i am undeclared but i kno im going to try to do predental...its gonna be hard but yah also in honors program...VERY excitedd about ucla now...i was originally goin to berkeley but glad that that i switched back to ucla and umm i live in IRvine i go to University high school and umm that is about it haha</p>

<p>yeah i did go to the engineering open house thing. what did you think?</p>

<p>jooni, how do you know if you're in the honors program? I'm really confused 'cause I thought you had to apply for it even if you are invited to join the honors program on your acceptance letter. We're not suppose to find out until June 1?</p>

<p>The engineering open house was ok. I was surprised to find out that there were only 20 ppl in the room.</p>

<p>futurecalgirl yah i applied but i think anyone who sent in a decent essay got in..i think as long as u didn't write somethign about wanting to research how to kill people with atomic bombs then u got in lol ...i heard the essay is juss to make sure the ppl who were qualified weren't too crazyy hahaha so im sure ure in also if you wrote ure essay on time</p>
