My four years at UCSB were amazing. I was on the tennis team all four years and I studied abroad to South Africa. The opportunities and experiences I had were awesome. I really loved my university, so it was wonderful that I was finally able to set foot on campus again. The campus was really empty due to the winter holidays. We didn't have to dodge any bikes or skateboards, which was great! It was quite eerie for how quite it was. It seemed like a ghost town. There are 25,000 students who attend the university, which is more than the population of Ričany by 10,000!!!!! UCSB is the 5th best public university in the nation according to Forbes magazine! A great thing to be proud of :) A visit to UCSB wouldn't be complete without getting food from Freebirds, so we had to go. I was completely shocked with how much the prices have increased since I attended. My parents questioned my ability to pay for the food while I was in university and of course I told them that the prices have increased like crazy. The good thing was that the quality was still the same and so was the quantity. I was able to have my nachos for 3 meals! After walking around on campus, we needed to go downtown. We walked on the pier and then the downtown area. It was so nice to be able to visit a place that meant so much to me. I had a wonderful day and will definitely visit the campus again in the future! GO GAUCHOS!!!!
