did utada go to columbia University?

[Ayufan11]

yes or no if not where and when did she go if so??

[Raleigh]

I think she went but she eventually dropped out. I am not sure though because it was a while ago.

[Calico]

She was studying marine biology as I recall, and she dropped out after only a semester because it wasn't as "challenging as she thought it would be".

How much more challenging does she need? @.@

[superdonut]

Marine biology... to a song writer/singer... that's odd ^__^; I wonder how she would've done if she stayed in college.

what a snobby comment by her , sounds more like an excuse to me

[Raleigh]

Pretty much. Biology is not easy at all from the little I've learnt and all university courses require a lot of dedication.

But gotta give her props for making it in to Columbia! *Sighs* hopefully I can attend college there some day too lol.

While I don't know how much she completed at college, I can confirm that she was on campus as my friend saw her when Hikki was there.

[Cyria]

Has she said anything about why she wanted to study marine biology?

Hehe ^^ Thanks~ You like HALCALI too? ^__^;

Yeah, I sort of wonder what Hikaru wanted to do when she decided to study marine biology... that's odd ^__^;

Maybe she likes whales? I don't know.

[Raleigh]

^ XDD Who knows?

[Huaka]

Ugh, she's such a conceited person. Dislike her greatly. Utada Hikaru has some superiority complex or what?

[Raleigh]

I wouldn't go that far but I think she just said that to cover it up since she probably couldn't keep up with juggling her marriage, her american career and her university classes.

O.O Whoa. I wouldn't go that far. I just think she's in a slump in her career. Superior complex?? Probably not. Ayu's been kicking her ass for years.

That's the reasl reason I'm pretty sure. The whole "It's too easy thing" can be true. I mean some people don't like doing work if it's too easy or unchalleging (gawd, how do you spell that un challeng ing) x_x

Anyway, I think demure's right, you want to go to college, the class is easy-you can do it if you really wanted to, you have an american career + japanese career + a husband. I really think it was too much for one person.

[[AHS]MortalSex]

lol! just sounds weird that a famous j-pop singer went on an american university =)=)

[-Link-]

if she was a marine biologist... shed be like the only hot marine biologist in the world

i can already see the marine geeks drooling all over her
