I don’t have any guilty pleasures because why feel guilty about something you enjoy?

My room. #KeurigLife
You like exploring the bend, tell us about some hidden gems.
I can’t because they wouldn’t be hidden anymore but I love Bazaar Sunday at The State. I bought a pocket knife for $2 at the flea market.
Why’d you abandon sunny California for the land of the permacloud?
For the diversity…of opinions. And weather. And people. 
If you could go back to freshman year and tell yourself one thing you know now, what would it be? 
Try to hate people less.

Bad breath. 
Most awkward ND event
Every social gathering ever. 
ND Bucket List
The Hesburgh Challenge. i.e. studying on every floor of the library. And not getting a CommStand.
Some of your friends refer to you as an elf, why?
I just like to do hoodrat things with my friends. And I’m 5 foot even.
Why are you perpetually running late to class?
I have to have 4 cups of coffee before I leave my room every morning even though my first class is at 12:50 p.m. every day.
What is your “jam”? 
Definitely Drake “Marvin’s Room”
Greatest ND accomplishment:
Sprouting a sunflower seed in my room. 
Closing Thought:
Stay classy, ND. No, that’s stupid. I hate myself.  
  
Thanks Kat!

Victoria is a Junior Political Science major and Journalism minor hailing from Atlanta, Georgia. As you'd expect, she loves writing about politics in a tireless attempt to help people realize that politics matter. When she's not standing on her soapbox, she enjoys music, food, football, and reminding people to check their privilege. In the winter months, you can find her near the closest heater listening to country songs and counting the days until break.
