Favorite Place

Wilder porch on a sunny spring day. It feels great to soak up the rays after a long winter. Its also really fun to see Obies come out of hibernation!

Favorite Class

Beginning Voice with Dr. Stidham, because it taught me that self-consciousness isnt lethal, and that pushing past it is worth it. (Also, singing is just really fun!)

Athletics

Oberlin Arts & Sciences Orchestra

Memorable Oberlin Moment

Seeing frickin LIZZO perform at Solarity (my friend Nia caught the bouquet!), doing the Maypole dance in Tappan at dawn after pulling a finals week all-nighter, shaking my stuff to the B-52s cover band at the cover band showcase, and late night conversations with friends.
