Just so you don't get bored, here is a list of my favorite things to do in Irvine, CA! Includes dining, shopping and scarce nightlife.

Great little boba tea shop! It tends to be a little crowded and loud inside so if you want you can sit at one of the countless tables outside. In my Irvine days I loved their Jade Green Tea! Oh, and they also serve food like fried calamari.
There aren't a lot of things to do in Irvine but the Elephant Bar is a good destination for private parties.
Panera Bread is a good spot for getting together with a study group. There are large, library-like tables, Wifi and yummy food of course!
My experience at Irvine's Mimi's Cafe might have been especially good since the manager comped it but I have always loved coming to this restaurant. Try their Spinach Dip, Tuscan Chicken and Blueberry Muffins.
If you are looking for things to do in Irvine, Irvine Spectrum should be your first stop. There is a movie theater, restaurants, a nail salon, a candy store and other shops!
