            On Tuesday, Professor Irwin Appel, head of the performing arts department, came to speak to us. He said that his whole life he always knew he wanted to act or play guitar. He attended both Princeton and Julliard, which I found to be extremely impressive. I personally was disappointed in his presentation because of the fact that he was an actor and therefore should have had a stronger stage presence. He surprisingly was the only one of all the presenters who remained completely stationary and seated during their presentation.

            Friday we took a field trip to the study abroad center, which was by far my favorite field trip because I am extremely interested in studying abroad. I ideally want to study in New Zealand but Australia would be really cool too. I am not sure yet if I want to go for an entire year or just a summer. I know for sure though I will not go for a single quarter because I feel that trying to arrange housing in Isla Vista for only 2 quarters would be too much of a challenge.

            I forgot to mention in my past blogs that I attended The Adventure Program seminar. In the meeting they spoke about really cool mobile camping trips that involves students from all the UCs. They go places like Colorado to white river raft and Yosemite to swim in hot springs. If I am unable to study abroad for some reason I will definitely make up for it by attending one of the Adventure Program camping trips.
