Hi Guys!
My name is Ariella, which means Lioness of the Gods. I never used to like my name because I always thought it was too complicated. Then I came to Vancouver and everyone loved it, so I'm actually glad that my parents took the Israeli themed route when naming my brother and I. That's another thing! I have a little menace of a brother named Ilan (translated into tree), who I hope stays a relatively tame teenager while he's up in New York City. We can fight like cats and dogs but most of the time we get along like best buddies. It was really sad to leave him and the rest of my family up in New York, where I was born and raised, but I'm very excited to be at UBC and can't wait to immerse myself into being a college student. In fact, as dorky as it is, I used to make my friends play "college" instead of "house." I would grab my dad's huge currency books (he's an international currency analyst) and have my friends and I carry them around and go to class (aka, my kitchen table). Sometimes I would even play the professor! I guess that's the leader in me. Alright, enough embarrassment for one day. All I can say is, I'm super friendly and love giving advice, so if anyone feels overwhelmed or just wants to talk, come to me! I'm happy about being in Art's One because I love small classes and I can't wait to get to know everyone in our little community. If you can't remember my name, just think of the little mermaid with an "A" at the end. That's how my parents did it!
Bye for now,
Ariella
