Future journalist balances Britney Spears dreams with Spanish-class nightmares

WILDCAT: Where are you from?

BUCHANAN: I'm from Southern California, Orange County.

WILDCAT: That movie was so stupid, but it still cracked me up.

BUCHANAN: Yeah.

WILDCAT: Did you know anybody when you came out here?

BUCHANAN: A couple people, like four or five.

WILDCAT: What has been your toughest class so far?

BUCHANAN: Spanish, because I haven't taken it for like three years, but I dropped it and went to a lower level. It's better now; I'm less stressed out.

WILDCAT: How do you like the people on campus?

BUCHANAN: Actually, they've all been really nice. Yeah.

WILDCAT: Have you had any professors so far that have been intimidating. Come on, I need some conflict, drama, to make this article interesting.

BUCHANAN: Well, my Spanish teacher was a little crazy, over-demanding, but I dropped that class, so that's OK.

WILDCAT: Would you ever go into your Spanish class speaking another language?

BUCHANAN: No, because I don't know any other language.

WILDCAT: What if you knew Jibberish?

BUCHANAN: Maybe.

WILDCAT: I triple dog dare you.

BUCHANAN: OK.

WILDCAT: That would be so great!

BUCHANAN: He'd probably be like, "En espa–ol please."

WILDCAT: If you had to be stuck on a deserted island with anyone in the world and could only bring one thing with you to the island, who and what would you choose?

BUCHANAN: Britney Spears.

WILDCAT: You are such a guy. Why?

BUCHANAN: Because she's good looking.

WILDCAT: Is that all? What about content, intelligence?

BUCHANAN: Based on content, I would have to say · I don't know.

WILDCAT: What is your biggest fear?

BUCHANAN: Being stuck on a deserted island and not knowing who I had to be there with.
