 high school and college, and I was going to study political science, and they sent me this list of 11 books you have to read before you start. And I thought, oh, man, this is the last summer of freedom. I don't want to read these 11 books. And I had a friend from drama class who was going to the same school, both going to UCLA, and his task over the summer was to write a 500-word story about himself.
