Hi Junxi,
First of all, this is a great question! University of California (UC) colleges are highly ranked in the United States and provide fantastic student education.
There are 9 UCs total, including Berkeley, LA, Santa Barbara, San Diego, Irvine, Davis, Santa Cruz, Riverside, and Merced. Each UC has different acceptance rates, locations, major focuses, housing options, and ranking among the other colleges in the United States. Each school may provide a different experience, but I will give you my own "typical day" at UC San Diego because I personally attended that institution.
When living on campus, I first woke up next to my roommate. We got dressed and left to the dining halls to get some breakfast before heading to our classes which, at earliest, started at 8am. You can expect to have anywhere between 1-4 classes a day, each one being 1 - 2 hours long. In between classes, I met up with my friends for coffee and lunch and studied in a nearby cafe. In the evening, I walked to my soccer practice for the UC San Diego Club team and played for about 2 hours. Then, I walked back to my dorm where I would usually hang out with my friends for the rest of the night! If we had a lot of school work, we would study together. If not, we would go out to a social event with friends or hang out in common rooms of our building!
I hope this answered your question, Junxi!
Research which UC you would like to attend and why!

What do you mean by "UC"?
This can have many different meanings in many different professional settings -- a Union Carpenter, an Urgent Care doctor or nurse, and a Utility Cargo plane pilot will all have greatly different typical days!
