Name the most thrilling thing you’ve ever done:Skydiving is the most thrilling and exhilarating thing I have ever done. I felt numb the entire time while falling out of the sky until my parachute opened. There was an amazing view on the way floating down. It was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had.
What’s one of your favorite memories at UCI? My most favorite memory at UCI was probably my first year when I dormed. I remember one night when I had to take my roommate to the hospital at 1 a.m .because she had a major laceration on her hand. Not the greatest night when we were actually experiencing it, but we look back on it and laugh now.
