I’ve known Bridget Dungan since last May, when we met for dinner one evening towards the end of the semester after being randomly assigned to share a room the next school year. Since we moved in last fall, we’ve become really good friends who watch movies with each other, laugh at the same memes and sometimes study together. Recently I asked my roommate some fun questions about herself and learned some new things about her in the process!
