Her Campus (HC): First off, how do you guys know each other?

Brandy Shea (BS): We live 10 feet apart from one another.

Clarissa Leyda (CL): I basically live in her bed, but we are actually suitemates.

HC: What were your first impressions of each other?

CS: We were random suitemates and Brandy added me on Facebook, but I couldn’t remember who she was so I un-friended her.

BS: I thought she was a cute Asian and I was excited to get to know her.

CL: *Blank stares.*

HC: What’s your favorite thing about each other?

BS: Clarissa has so much energy when she is awake, which takes her a good 45 minutes. It’s unstoppable.

CL: Probably her open-mindedness. She never judges.

HC: What advice do you give to incoming freshmen that will have to live in dorms?

CL: Just to get excited to meet new people because you never know what kind of connections you’re able to make!

BS: Definitely to be positive because your roommates may turn into your best friends.

HC: What do you guys like to do most with one another?

CL: We like to cuddle, sing really loudly, dance in the mirror and run up and down the hallways of Jennie Murphree.

BS: Don’t forget that we eat almost every meal together and love to quote our favorite vines. Shoutout to Gabriel Conte.

HC: Who is your celebrity crush?

CL: Mi amor, Enrique Iglesias!

BS: Quick story, one time I heard Clarissa crying in her room so I went to see if she was okay. I walk in and she was watching a live stream concert of Enrique Iglesias, bawling her eyes out. My celeb crush is definitely Seth Rogen.

HC: Do you guys plan on living with each other in the future?

BS: Yeah, I actually plan on spending the rest of my life with her.
