“I just applied because it was a Virginia school. I wasn’t really considering it. And then I visited and realized just how much better it was than everywhere else. It’s so beautiful and everyone is so nice. And I love the class sizes and the staff. I don’t regret my decision at all.”

 

 

“Can I be the frog from ‘The Princess and the Frog?'”

 

 

“Jennifer Lawrence… ‘cause she’s cool. She seems down to earth.”

 

 

“John Stamos… ‘cause he’s John Stamos.”

 

 

“That time I got asked to be a Campus Cutie for Her Campus… Just kidding. One day, I wasn’t paying attention and walked past my room. So I walked into my neighbor’s suite because they had left their door open. Turns out they were all sitting on the couch staring at me. I said sorry and turned around and walked back to my room. It ruined my life.”

 

 

“Well, I already went skydiving, so I don’t have that and that’s everyone’s go-to. I want to travel more, so maybe to go to specific places. My number one would have to be to travel to all of the continents.”

 

 

“I can do animation stuff on the computer.”

 

 

“I make short flash animations. I made one for my friend who tried to freestyle rap, so I made an animation corresponding with his failure to do so and set it to the recording of him.”

 

 

“I did a study abroad trip to Europe through the business school. We went to Munich, Amsterdam, and London. I had never been outside of the U.S. before, so that was an adventure in itself. And then seeing everything – all of the amazing tourist attractions, experiencing the city-life and the different cultures – was all so great to take in.”

 

 

“Starting my classes for my major. Now I won’t just be taking gen eds anymore, and it’ll be a nice change of pace to take classes that are truly applicable to what I want to do. It’ll be good to be learning about things that I’m really interested in.”
