Amanda was Rebecca first real friend at CSUN, where they met in the dorms. They were probably the only two people in Segura Hall (their dorm building) who loved country music. They continued living together after the dorms in their very first off-campus apartment. Between nights of dancing at The Abbey in West Hollywood, Amanda introduced Rebecca to her very first Jewish Holidays, Rosh Hashanah and Passover, and Rebecca showed Amanda some of the “country” parts of central California that Amanda never knew existed.
