I am having SO much fun here at UCSB!
This is my schedule...As you can see, I have a LOT of dance!! :)
I'm taking ballet, modern, dance history, psychology, and a class called "Freshman Company." It's a performance class in which we learn choreography that we are going to perform next quarter. I am also a part of three clubs: 1. German Club, 2. Cotillion Dance (a ballroom/social dancing club), and 3. InterVarsity (a Christian club).
This is my dorm room (or rather, was my room).
I just re-arranged it, so here are some more current pictures...
I got a single room, with a beautiful view of the lagoon, mountains and beach.
Here are some pictures of the view:
the food here is pretty good, too...
&fun to play with!!! (as you can see here, in the case of my friend Bryan)
I have made a lot of new friends! Here are some pictures of the people I spend my days with:

As you can see, my friends are strange, but fun-loving people!
And with them, I have had many adventures on and off campus.
For instance..........
a visit to the SB Zoo with Will:
(I named this desert tortoise "George!")
music/dance performances downtown:
...and much, much more.
well, that's all for now, folks. :)
I hope all is well in San Diego!
Love,
Beatrice (Bice/Pookie)
