Favorite Class or Professor and Why

Intro to Creative Essay Writing--I honestly hate writing but this class made essays almost enjoyable. It was a late-night class that lasted two hours once a week, but the professor always had so much energy.

My UMBC hack is...

go to lots of events for free food and free shirts!

Favorite Local Shop or Restaurant

Krispy Kreme because you can get fresh donuts and eat them while they're still warm. Also, Old Ellicott City in general has so many antique stores that are fun to browse.

My most memorable UMBC experience was...

last year when I attended one of the cultural events with my friends. It was really fun to dress up in fancy, colorful clothes and dance the whole night. As weird as it sounds, one of the most memorable parts of that night was when my friends and I limped back to our rooms on campus because our feet were so sore from wearing heels all night.
