Around this time, a year ago, I was setting my mind on going to Korea, thinking that I wouldn’t really miss much and needed to see a change in my life. I had agreed to room in a triple with my one of my friends from freshmen year and another roomie I randomly had from CV that I barely got to know, THINKING that I probably wouldn’t have to live there but it was just for “in case” I didn’t end up going to Korea. Then during a lunch with my Aunt she highly encouraged me to apply to USC’s film school, telling me that they have all the tools and connections to get me where I needed for my job. So I did, well long story short, that somehow cancelled out my trip to Korea, and none of the things I had in mind actually happened. So I was like well, it won’t be so bad staying here, it’ll just be chill if anything. Well, I was so wrong. My roomies of 107 turned out to be some of the funniest and most entertaining people I have ever had the pleasure of living with. I got so used to be around them that whenever I go home and wake up, I feel sad because I feel so weird waking up to silence, as opposed to the random craziness of my roomies playing spontaneous games in the morning. I used to be the kind of person that liked a lot of alone time and tons of privacy. But, now I could easily give up that in a heartbeat just to be around their company.

Secondly, Level 5…I don’t even know where to start. All I can say is just WOW, I don’t recall ever being THIS happy for all the years of my life, and I have you guys to thank for it! Of course I’ve had my fun days where I would feel extremely ecstatic for that one day or week, but this is the first time I’ve felt this way for such a consistent and extended amount of time. I can be completely myself around all of you. Most people would think I’m weird and just shoot me disapproving, judgmental looks. But when you guys call me weird…you laugh alongside me and JOIN me in our weird and dorky shenanigans! You all taught me how to become a more confident and outgoing, stronger, and overall better person as well as a better dancer. 

I’ve never felt so many cheesy things and meant it. I feel like I’ve been drugged all quarter! We don’t even need alcohol to go crazy with each other and have fun. We just get high off of each other’s energy. If the world ended right now, I would have died happy. I’ve already said most of the things I wanted to say on Facebook…but I am so excited and nervous for next year. You are all so very amazing, talented, hard-working, spirited, funny, energetic, and the list goes on. I love you guys and I am so proud to be a part of this team! There are so many things I have in plan for our team and I hope I don’t overdo it and overwhelm anyone! haha
