it's amazing how much media effects the way we think...
here i am at work. i do a lot of donor research, and part of that research requires me to look up their spouses and to check if they were berkeley alums. and everytime i come across a pair that were undergrads or grads tg, i can't help but wonder if they met here at berkeley then got married, or if they met here, but then met again later then decided to get married. like fate dictates who you will marry, yatta yatta... (that and i'm mighty bored here at work, so i have time to think about these pointless subjects..) i wonder why the media or how the media came up with such an idea. we've all seen it. those bazillion romances where they meet, and they're perfect for each other. then something happens and they keep missing the opportunity, but in the end, we all know they'll be together.. ya kno? and we all fall into that trap of believing in that romantic notion that one day we'll meet "the one" and we'll live happily ever after....

well, BOO on fate!
