With Love


First things first! My deepest, most sincere apologies for going MIA! I’m a terrible person, woe be unto me, and I do hope that you fabulous people can find a place in your heart to forgive this contrite blogger. But really - this last month of college has been hectic, to say the least.

Unfortunately, I have just a bit of bad news – grab your boxes of Kleenex guys - this is the FINAL 430 blog. You see, next semester, the dimensions of suite 430 are going to change. Two of our characters, Daniella and Britta will be on student exchange on the mainland, leaving suite 430 painfully incomplete. But don’t panic. While Suite 430 won’t be full of the usuals, the 430 bond will definitely remain.

So what’s been happening in 430 these past few weeks?

Well I’de loveee to tell you about Chanelle and Jaspers rekindled friendship, the deets on Lana and Brandon’s new relationship, and the fact that Cher and Kenneth are once again joined at the hip, but this blog is so much bigger than that today. ;)

This blogger realizes that many of my readers may be headed off to college next year. So here’s a few things that we 430ers learned together this year…

7 Tips to Having a Freshman year as AWESOME as 430’s:

1.     Bring Ramen. And LOTS of it. (Daniella = Ramen Addict.)
2.    Running into your new suitemate’s room and “stealing” their snacks while they are in there is a perfectly good way to become friends with them….[right Britta? ;) ]
3.    Play lots of Just Dance! (ty Farrah!)
4.    Only take hour long showers singing at the top of your lungs when you’re sure that no one else needs to bathe (ahem, Cher…luv you!).
5.    Coin your own catch phrase…(i.e. “ain dat kind a party” – Nina)
6.    Look fab! (Coco Chanelle fab!)
7.    And Finally -Try something new…like the dance team! :D (Double High Fives to Amy & Lana!)


And now it’s time for my farewells. (And In case you haven’t figured it out, this faithful (cough cough) blogger is none other than Daniella. :} )

Nobody could have imagined such an overwhelmingly grand Freshman year – but it’s awesomeness was all due to the amazing girls of suite 430:

Nina! You cray! :P But getting to know you was awesome. Stay sweet, and try to stay out of trouble! ;)

Farrah!!! My sweet and sassy “The Voice” date! Thanks for all the laughs, long talks, and ramen! You’re going to do great things! I can feel it!

Cher – my dear, delightful and easily amused Cher! [Lol.] I think that if I had a daughter she’d be just like you – a complete nutcase! Keep doing what you’re best at – being your strikingly unique self.

Lana. My ride or die, all day every day chic! Coming to college with you has been fun – to say the least. Never forget who you are – and always let your great talents shine through.

Chanelle! You are such a supporter of foolishness….but I love ya! And you are the best at making me laugh! Stay amazing.

Amy!!! I adore you and your favorite weirdo! ;) lol. No matter how far away from each other time takes us, I know we’’ll always have each other’s back!

And last but not least, Britta. OHHH Britta. I didn’t come to college expecting to make a new best friend, but here we are. We’re so alike, and yet so different – but that’s what makes us great at being crazy together! LUH you! And can’t wait to go on our student exchange adventure!


Hey! Guess what I just realized – This is blog number seven! I may have missed some weeks, but seven is the number of completion, so I think we’re okay. 0:)


It’s been a wonderful, crazy – amazing ride 430’ers. I’ll never forget this year.

None of us will.

With love,
Daniella
