[00:00:06.067]I chose English because
[00:00:07.727]it was a way for me to express myself.
[00:00:09.639]I got the opportunity to actually work
[00:00:11.102]with one of the professors here
[00:00:12.571]in the English Department
[00:00:14.435]where I got to learn research,
[00:00:16.663]the discipline, and actually
[00:00:18.274]practice methods and things like that
[00:00:20.894]in order to conduct research.

[00:00:43.398]in light of the Hollywood culture.
[00:00:45.496]I got to present my research
[00:00:47.264]at the University of California-Berkeley.
