this was on an old blog of mine – i don’t think it was ever read by anybody. the interludes are written by cousin celia
i dug it up in my email while looking for something. this took place in july 2006.

what do you see? u. c. berkeley
i’m unabashed in my love for all things university of california, berkeley. oftentimes, this leads to sadness when putting one’s hope into our various sports teams, other times, it leads to confusion and perplexed feelings, when some groups on campus opt for activism of a wholly non-productive type. but, always, there’s a feeling of pride in having attended one of the world’s great institutions of learning – doubly so as a public school.
so while the state of california tries to legislate itself out of the worst governmental financial crisis in quite some time, i took some time to visit uc berkeley – or as we alumni/students call it: Cal.

home again, home again
with christmas and new year’s around the corner, i’m in countdown mode for my trip back to the states, which is nominally home for me.
of course, i’m not really sure what is home anymore. let’s review a bit:
pittsburgh, pa
i left at age 2 or 3. don’t remember a single thing about pittsburgh. have never been back. so pittsburgh isn’t home. (although if i was mainland chinese, i’d be a pittsburgher)
