Despite the long break from our passion blogs, I am so excited to introduce another one of the new friends I have made here at Penn State Univeristy, Pranavi Yerramareddy. Our friendship is a funny story, because we actually came from the same town, yet we did not know eachother.
At our mandatory third floor meeting during our first few days here at PSU, Pranavi came up to me and introduced herself. She knew who I was, but I had no idea who she was. She told me that she went to Centennial High School, which is about 15 minutes away from where I went to high school, River Hill High School. Pranavi explained that she had followed me on social media and we discovered that we actually had a lot of mutual friends.
Pranavi lives three doors down from me in our dorm, so we have seen a lot of eachother throughout the year so far. Now that we know how close we live to eachother, we are now able to carpool on the long car rides back to Maryland from PSU. Last weekened, I was able to go home and see my friends and family since Pranavi’s dad was bringing her back to Maryland for a family event.
Having Pranavi as a friend is not only really helpful and funny that we live so close to each other at home and at school, but she is so fun to be around as well. Pranavi is the kind of person who laughs so hard that everyone else laughs too. She was nicknamed “Pringles” by some of the boys on our floor and this nickname has really stuck. Even Pranavi has started calling herself pringles.
Jokes like these are a huge part of life living on the third floor of Atherton hall. Pranavi is known for talking very loudly so that everyone can always hear her. Everyone loves Pranavi, this is just a funny thing she does. One night, the boys on our floor took every quiet hours sign from the third and fourth floor and taped them onto Pranavi’s door, creating a quiet hour collage. Even Pranavi was hysterically laughing when she discovered her new door decoration.
Pranavi’s roommate, Jules Dominick, is another one of my good friends. They get along really well and there room is always a fun and welcoming place. Jules will be my next highlight on my blog. Overall, Pranavi is a care free and energetic person who lights up every room she walks into. I am so glad I became friends with Pranavi here, even though we never knew eachother back home.
This was a nice article. I didn’t realize you lived on the same floor that I do.
Seems like a great person, taping the signs to the door is hilarious. Also this is just another example of how being friends with people who live close to you comes in handy.
