About Me

One Berkeley student. An EECS geek. But a geek I am not. A nerd, for sure. I'm Pavan Yedavalli, originally from Columbus, Ohio, currently a college student at the University of California - Berkeley. There are so many thoughts running through my mind that I finally realized I need a medium through which I can express myself. Sports, technology, music, travel, the economy, academics, politics. Whatever. I'll talk about anything. The following will give you a taste of my interests and my personality:

First off, I love to travel, and I'm a huge geography aficionado. I have always had an interest in atlases, maps, globes, etc.

Favorite Sports: Basketball, tennis, football, soccer, golf, and baseball. I'm a big Chicago fan in everything. I love the Bulls, Bears, and Cubs. Since I'm from Ohio, I'm also a huge fan of the Ohio State Buckeyes, in both basketball and football.

Favorite Music: Mostly hip-hop. Kanye West, Eminem, Outkast, Juvenile, Ludacris, Biggie, 2Pac, DMX, Jay-Z, Common, Nas, Talib Kweli, Lupe Fiasco, John Legend, etc. I also like certain bands, mainly Dave Matthews Band, 311, Incubus, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Third Eye Blind.

Favorite TV Shows: Seinfeld (the greatest show of all time), The Office, Sportscenter, Pardon the Interruption, Chappelle's Show, Around the Horn, Arrested Development, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Entourage, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Scrubs, and Arthur.

Favorite Movies: Ocean's Eleven (my favorite), Ocean's Thirteen, Rush Hour, Rush Hour 2, Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle, Anchorman, Wedding Crashers, American Gangster, Training Day, Crash, Sideways. I also like certain Hindi and Telugu movies. Dil Chahta Hai is my favorite Indian movie.
