Premieres/Events on Los Angeles, C.A. on January? -

I m going to L.A. on the 3rd/4th week of January, 2010. I really want to know If there is any event or premiere during those weeks. I ve already found the Golden Globes which will be held at Hilton Hotel, on Jan. 17, but I wanan know if there s something else. Thanks in advance.

SAG Awards are at the Shrine Exposition Center (by the Coliseium) on Jan 23. www.sagawards.comThe Director s Guild Awards will be at the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza Hotel in Los Angeles on Jan 30.Oscars aren t until February. Actually, that s a lot of celebrities running around in a short time. You re lucky to be in town for awards season.

Your chances on getting into those we make good movies and are slapping ourselves on the back for doing such a nice job award shows are slim to none... and any outside audience watching the glamorous walk the red carpet, ehhh who cares?

Do you think I could get accepted in University of Hawaii at Manoa? -

I am not in-state. I am doing the Army ROTC, and my GPA is a 3.4-3.5I am the top half of my graduating class.4 AP Classes. Good extra-curriculars.Half Korean and white.

Well, you could get in. The question is whether you would want to attend UH as an undergrad. There are hundreds of colleges and universities in North America with a more rigorous curriculum in most departments, stronger reputations, much more vibrant campus lives, better availability of campus housing, easier parking, more money for scholarships and other aid, and lower costs of living. UH Manoa is the school for you in a few very specific situations: you want to major in a subject in which Manoa is particularly strong (astronomy, marine sciences, Asian languages, Hawaiian studies); you have close family and friends on Oahu; you cannot live without poi, poke, and pipikaula on a regular basis; surfing is your life; you feel at home among the working class Asian, Pacific Islander, and multiracial cultures that dominate Hawaii; or you really feel compelled to immerse yourself in a foreign culture without actually leaving the United States. UH Manoa is great for graduate school, but for the typical undergrad, college life could be so much better somewhere else.

Unless you intend to study Marine Biology or Travel Tourism, you would probably find a better fit at another school with a 3.4 and 1800+ SAT.I have a freind who went to UH to study physics and was terribly disappointed becasue most of the course work was covered in her highschool AP physics courses.Of course all of this changes if you just really want to be in Hawaii

You seriously have to ask this question? 3.4 GPA and an 1830 SAT score and you have to ask this question??? Of course you can get in. Any dumby can get into UH. I bet a 2.5 GPA and 900 SAT score will get you into UH. You should think of going to a much better school like UCLA, USC, CAL, or University of Washington.

Ari is half right... you should have no problem getting into UH Manoa. But he is wrong about the standards. You need at least a 3.0. At least that is what I was told when my son applied. That was a few years ago, but I doubt it has changed much.
