Today, I went to the graduate student orientation at UCLA. As I wandered through campus, I wondered how different my life would have been had I chosen to go to Los Angeles instead of Berkeley for my undergraduate studies. I could have easily been a Bruin... (Funny story how I chose to go to Berkeley... Ask me about it, if you wanna know...) In any case, all I could think about was the fact that my experiences at Berkeley had been instrumental in my learning how to do laundry.
