Describe yourself in three words:Friendly, goofy and bubbly
Why do you love ND? I love that every dorm has mass every week with a designated theme. I love the traditions that each dorm has, and I love that Notre Dame sponsors a Harry Potter theme dinner for First Years.
Favorite place on campus and why: My favorite location on campus is the lake behind Lewis. I enjoy going on nature walks and observing the animals.
How would you say your Freshman year has been? It has been fun and hectic.
Favorite TV show? Supernatural. This show has had 9 seasons and is still going strong!! I have been faithful since the beginning! Sam and Dean are my favorite. I tend to yell at the television when I watch it. My roommate thinks I am a bit crazy but who cares, I love this show. This show contains a brotherly bond, comedy, horror, and spices up well-known myths.
North or South dining hall? Even though, I live reeeeeally close to North and there is an unspoken rule I should prefer this dining hall over the other, I will always choose South Dining Hall over North. Sorry, fellow Northerners, not sorry. South Dining Hall stole me away the instant I found out about their delicious baked cookies.
Best Experience at ND? Salsa Night at Legends. I got the opportunity to dance with Juan, an amazing Salsa dancer.
Number one way to procrastinate and why? I have a ritual that starts off by going to the Huddle and stocking up on junk food. Then, I go to Michelle Williams’ infamous quad and hang out with the stragglers that end up in there. Everyone should go. Whats to love about PDub? Everything! I can’t imagine living in another dorm an campus.
Best and worst Frosh-O experience? I cannot think about Frosh-O without remembering a guy that changed his name every single time he met someone new. I do not know or remember who this guy is, but I thought that was really weird. The best experience would have definitely occurred during DomerFest.
Celebrity Crush? Ian Somerhalder and Matthew Gray Gubler.
How do you feel about wrapping up freshman year?I really enjoyed this year and saying goodbye to my friends will not be easy but I am ready for SUMMER!
Summer plans? For my 18th birthday, (May 18) I will go skydiving! I decided a year ago that I would do this and I am glad that I haven’t chickened out. On another note, I am also planning on taking Economics at the University of Dayton.
What would you say is your motto in life? “I don’t know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.” -Bill Cosby
Thanks Siri!!!!!!
