Talking about cute flirtatious and young sounding women, UCSF office of admissions has one as well. She laughed at me first because I asked her if UCSF would shred my application if it didn't get there within two weeks, but then she was very helpful and even wished me a good weekend with the cutest and most exotic voice I've ever heard.
