Some sights around Caltech & My Room

These are reposts of my Flickr album.


Beckman Auditorium. It’s also known as the Wedding Cake. I walk by this about 4 times a day. Notice the look and feel of the campus (lots of greens, low buildings, sunny).


I’m walking to my room (I can’t call it a dorm since it’s actually a house, or, hovse). This is a walkway. Notice the yellowish color of buildings. That’s typical.


A walkway in the Mods (Modular housing). Since some of the houses are being renovated this year, lots of people, like me, are living in “trailers” or Mods. Note that this is only temporary housing for me at the moment since this weekend is house picks. This picture sucks because I was about to take a picture when someone walked into the scene, and I didn’t want to make it seem like I was taking a picture of him (which I wasn’t anyway).


A better view of the mods. 15F is my room!


This is what you see when you walk through the door. The double that I’m living in is pretty small. That blue towel you see is hanging off of the bed of my roommate so that’s how small the room is. But there’s at least air conditioning and fast internet though :). The desk and everything is in disarray since I’m about to move this weekend and there’s no point of making things neat (excuses, excuses, of course).


Another section of my room. Heh, compared to all of you other kids in dorms, this is pretty damn shabby. Some books, drinks, two apples that I’m saving, some bathroom stuff, a radioshack bag of electronics, and two pairs of shoes. Clothes hung over hamper, messy.

Well, that’s it for now!

    Is your “hovse” comment in the same vein as me saying I go to “the Massachvsetts Institvte”? :)

    I’m not sure if it originated the same way, but yeah, I think it’s like that. I don’t get it though. Why can’t they just use u’s instead of v’s?!

    I think the curve in a U might have been difficult to carve because of its small radius, or something. I just kind of wonder why they didn’t use backwards Z’s instead of S’s in that case…
