<p>Hey everyone, I am curious to know how many desis are going to attend UCLA this fall. Personally, I just know only 4-5 Indians are/will be attending UCLA. So please come in and introduce yourselves. What are you gonna study in UCLA. Are you international ? etc etc</p>

<p>I am an international student from Bangalore. I have been living in the US for 4-5 yrs now. I have done my High Schooling in bay area. I will be doing my B.S. degree in Computer Science and will be minoring in Physics. By the way, how is the bollywood scence in UCLA? Do you guys watch hindi movies?</p>

<p>Haha...Now I understand what you guys were saying !! Here in America, when we say "East Indian," we are referring to people from India. Just Indian could refer to American Indians. There is a level of ambiguity. So we are reffered to as "East Indians." I am not talking about people from eastern part of India. By the way, Bangalore is in South India, ya.</p>
