I define it as learning from the mistakes of those who came before. So here’s my number one little piece of advice to anyone entering college this year:
DO NOT EVER BUY A SLAB OF BRIE AND CRACKERS FOR YOUR ROOM.
You will nibble said brie and crackers. You will munch said brie and crackers. You will scarf it. You will devour it. It will be your breakfast. It will be your lunch. It will be your dinner. It will be your tea and supper. It will be your best friend. It will be all you think about. It will disappear obscenely fast. You will buy another. That will disappear also. You will buy yet another. You will lose your savings. You will lose your sleep. You will lose your ability to function in a cheese-free universe. You will slowly lose your mind.
Some or all of these things may have happened to me.
Even if the brie was on sale for Thanksgiving and only 3 bucks. Especially so.
I don't know what it is about this school and food, man. We're all a bunch of pigs over here. Happy, self-satisfied pigs. They feed me like a queen and I still go out and buy more. The one thing I haven't dared get is Nutella, though. I can't. I can't let that happen to myself. I can't let myself go there.
(Wanping, when you visit me, make sure you eat light on the plane. I have a lot of extra meals left on my account and I wanna get you some UCLA tiramisu or gelato - tooooo dieeeee forrrrrrr.)
