Candy makes a phone call to Ian
　　Candy: Hey, remember me, Candy? I'm Sarah's cousin, the one who wants to study abroad.
　　Ian: Oh yeah, the one who wanted to apply to an MBA program. Have you made any progress?
　　Candy: Yeah, tons! I've got catalogs from a whole bunch of great schools. Maybe you want to help me look at them?
　　Ian: I might be able to squeeze you in this weekend. Which programs are you looking at?
　　Candy: I want to go to an Ivy League school! I just love the East Coast! But Berkeley would be fine, too.
