I really love dorm haul videos because most girls mention their major. I love hearing about other people's majors - it's just so interesting to see what all other people are passionate about!
Oh my gosh... I'm going to Cal this August 22nd! I'm terrified and so excited and have nothing to take with me yet! Agh!!!! But I can't wait to start my college shopping~
~have you ever been to that one breakfast buffet thing? It's on Campus and it's really cool. I'm not even in highschool yet, but I've been there for swim camp and its reeealy neat.
this is super helpful! I'll be coming to berkeley this fall and i'm super excited! one question though in hindsight were any of these things extra? AND ANY RECOMMENDATIONS FOR ROOMMATES? like random or no? i tend to get along w/ people pretty easily. but horror roommate stories scare mee
cookiestuf232 Yay, congratulations! I will be filming a video about what to bring/what not to bring to college! I was able to select one of my closest friends to be my roommate, but my second roommate was randomly selected (luckily, she's awesome)! If you get along with people pretty easily, you should be fine! :D
I'm a freshman in highscool but I'm already trying to work towards going to UC Berkeley. Could you please do a video on your experience so far and how you got in. I don't do any sports but I am trying to focus on my academics by taking honors/AP classes. If you have any advice on how to get in without doing a sport or something please share!! BTW I just found your channel and really love your videos already! Thank you :)
What is your view on a semester system vs quarter system? Also, is it impossible to own a car as a UC Berkeley student who would live in the residence halls? THANKS!
Spicy Kielbasa I prefer the semester system! It gives you more time to adjust to your schedule and actually learn something in class. The quarter system just goes by way too quickly, you are constantly having midterms and finals. It is possible to own a car as a UC Berkeley who would live in the residence halls, but to buy a parking pass/permit is pretty damn expensive!
JKBeauty08 Thanks for your reply. The semester system sounds better to me also for the same reasons you pointed out. I was accepted to both UCLA and CAL, but CAL accepted me for Spring '16 instead of Fall '15, which kind of sucks because I have to wait till January. I already submitted an SIR to CAL because it's been my dream, but nothing is in stone till June 1st. I'm sorta second guessing myself.. but anyway On CAL's website I read that they won't even sell you a parking permit if you live within 2 miles of the campus. So that's why I was asking about having a car and living in the residence halls. I saw some craigslist ads for people renting out their garages off campus for parking.. but it's like $200 a month. Do you leave campus a lot? Do you even really need a car? I'm thinking with all the work I'm gonna have to do I won't even have time to be doing stuff lol.. Just stressing out because I have to make up my mind. Thanks so much
Spicy Kielbasa Congrats on getting in to two great schools! I occasionally leave campus on weekends to go shopping or to check out San Francisco. You don't really need a car because Cal has an awesome public transportation system. All students receive a bus pass every semester, which allows for you to take all of the public buses for free. They go pretty much anywhere around the bay area, even SF! There is also the option of taking the BART, which is fairly quick and inexpensive. Luckily, Cal is also located in a college town that has plenty of amazing restaurants and stores located very close to campus, so you can walk or bike pretty much everywhere. You'll never be bored!
Omg I wanna be an architecture major sooo bad! And also I really want to go to Berkley! When you said you were gonna be an architecture major I like died lol
Alan Zhang Of course, definitely! We'll cover the application and admissions processes as well as financial aid and scholarships! We'll post a video about all of that towards the end of March. Thanks for watching! :D
Hi! Do you think I need to get 4.0 of GPA to get into UC Berkeley? And also if I don´t have a weighted GPA becuase my school dosen´t offer Honors or AP clases, do you think is harder to get in Berkeley or even impossible?
Luis David Sánchez Hey! You do not need a 4.0 GPA to get in to UC Berkeley; however, you do need a fairly high GPA along with community service, sports, and other extracurricular activities. It may be very difficult to get in to Berkeley without Honors or AP classes, so I would recommend taking community college classes to prove that you are capable of handling higher level courses.
we are like the same person! Im majoring in architecture at Mississippi state next fall, im obsessed with school supplies and I use that same toothpaste hahaha youre like my second half
monica alvarado Have you visited both schools? If not, I highly recommend that you do! Every school is different. Pick the one that you can see yourself going to, but UC Berkeley is an amazing school! :D
Monica Sartorius depends.. UCLA: LA, sports are huge, off campus dorms, Westwood, cocky people, heat, traffick, bougie rich people area UC Berkeley: Bay Area, homeless everywhere, protesting every week, San Francisco, fog (Carl), not as sunny, weird people who dgaf, diversity, rigorous and competitive af, berkeley goggles ( lower your dating standards) I chose Berkeley for the fall (class of 2021!!)
ahhh, I'm gonna be a freshman this year and i'm so excited. Just uploaded my first video and its a college countdown vlog, it would be awesome if you checked it out :) Loved your video!!!

+Sean Thornton Thank you so much! :D
"You never know if your roommates are gonna smell" lmao 😂😂 i subscribed after that haha
I love that your room theme color is orange! Most girls like a turquoise or blue, so I like that you're doing something different :)
KareBear Thank you so much! :D
You're welcome! :))
Oh my gosh... I'm going to Cal this August 22nd! I'm terrified and so excited and have nothing to take with me yet!

You should do a video giving tips on what makeup to bring to college since you have limited space/have to downsize :)
Julia Tran That's a great idea, we definitely will! :D
I just got accepted to Cal and I was wondering if I could possibly e-mail you some questions concerning Berkeley.
Good luck at college!!!! Love all your college dorm goodies, oh and ps your hair still looks gorgeous!!!
+Style.Lab Girl Thank you! :)
Ah I go to Berkeley too and I think I saw you! >.< In the unit 1 apr workout room!
I love the orange!!

Oh my god Pilot G2 pens are literally the best things invented!
Im trying to choose between Cal and UCLA right now, AH I don't know.
Grace Harrison CAL CAL CAL :D
Hey, I love your Steve Madden purse! Do you know the name of the purse?
Nadia Yay Thank you! No, I'm not sure of the name. :(
I watched this last year and was kinda jealous that youre going to Berkeley... One year later and I've somehow managed to be going there too :)
Noelle G Yay, congrats! :D

Your bag is gorgeous and I wish my GPA could be as high as yours.
Alexia Stephens Awwwe, thanks, girl! It can be, with hard work and dedication. :)
Go to Costco for the Germ-X because it's awesome!
Hey I love your bag and I was wondering if you know the name of the bag. Thanks!
Shannon May Jusman Thank you! I got it at Ross and I think it is called the Steve Madden Convertible Cognac Brown/Black Satchel Double Handle Bag.
