I fell in love for the right reason. I fell in love unconditionally.

If I did want to go back to school, I’d want to go to Loyola Marymount University over in, I believe, Morina, or Pepperdine. Those are just beautiful campuses. I know that’s probably not the right reason to go school. The campuses are just stunning.
