Do the Math

10 roommates, 1 toilet, 1 shower.

This math doesn't exactly add up, right? Only in the world of backpacking sharehouses.

We've had 6 new roommates move in this week. We're now up to 2 English, 2 Germans, 2 Americans, 1 Irish, and 3 Scots. And there's a rumor that 4 more are moving in soon? Insane....


Today I read that Berkeley won the Big Game! Whooo! We've got the Axe! Reading about the game on the DailyCal website isn't anywhere near as exciting as rooting for my Bears in person, but I do feel an enormous sense of pride for my school. Cal is even on the news here, with the strikes against the UC Regents and fee hikes. And almost everyone I've met here knows about Berkeley. Usually the response is "Oh, I've heard of that school. That's a really good uni". The Chancellor used to always boast that Berkeley is the greatest public university in the world. And I couldn't be more proud to be a Bear this week. Go Bears!!

This article sums up why Cal is better than Stanford. If you didn't know it already :http://www.dailycal.org/article/107541/cannon_fodder
