Kayla Nuppola
* Program: Forensic Science
* Year of study: Second Year
* Favourite moment at Trent: My favourite moment at Trent so far has to be the first day when everyone moved into their rooms and I got meet the people living around me because it was very exciting to finally start the whole experience and meet some really awesome people!
* What you couldn't live without at Trent: One thing I definitely could not live without at Trent would be a calendar that was able to stick onto the wall because it's what kept me sane and organized for my first year.
* Funny moment since coming to Trent: One night when my bathroom-mate and I were sitting on my bed around 2am, and because we were just so tired and we are just naturally really silly and do weird things, we decided to make videos of random things. We were just saying silly things, especially my bathrrom-mate has an accent that she can do really well, and I ended up laughing so hard and loud that someone down the hallway from me called the don-on-call because they heard me laugh.
* Why you love Gzowski?: It was ideal for my first year by having your own space to get away and focus on school, but then there was someone always right there to talk to or hangout with whenever you wanted to! I can't imagine having to share a bathroom with more than one other person, it was so ideal and made the transition to Trent a lot easier for me!

* Year of Study: Second Year
* Favourite moment at Trent : Rugby games where everyone comes together and people are wearing green and full of school pride!
* What you couldn’t live without at Trent: My close group of amazing friends and the amount of tea we have acquired over first year.
* Funny moment since coming to Trent: Meeting my bathroom mate Emily W. last year when we both showed up with 25 rolls of toilet paper and the only thing I could think of was to say " I brought vanilla air freshener...". Emily responded " That is a good scent option". and we stood there in silence while our parents were awkwardly helping us move our things. Thankfully our friendship has come a long way since move in day :)
* Why do you love Gzowski?: Gzowski has 3 floors that are easy to run up and down to. This makes it easier to go to your friends rooms and hang out in other people's common rooms which really creates a sense of community.

* Program: Business Administration
* Year of study: Fourth Year
* Favourite moment at Trent: One would certainly have to be my second year on ISW staff last year, meeting some of my best friends I have today. Becoming involved with my college and program have been an abundance of favourite experiences at this school that I will never forget! Basically, in sum, there are so many opportunities to create your favourite moments, so get involved and you'll learn so much about yourself.
* What I couldn't live without at Trent: I couldn't live without a couple things... 1. My friends. 2. My guitar 3. My dog 4. Bata Library... living with 5 guys sure makes it hard to get homework done... USE THE LIBRARY... You'll be so much happier with life.
* Funny moment since coming to Trent: A funny moment since coming to Trent would probably be the special surprise during the Shinerama auction that the Gzowski boys have done in the past... Go to it, you'll see. At a cost though.
* Why you love Gzowski?: Gzowski is my home. Lets go through the Trent family tree just to show you how Gzowski falls in to place... It's fairly short but it's important. Consider Trent now as your new hyphenated last name. Since that's your family name, where you have cousins, aunts and uncles all from the different colleges like Lady Eaton, Otonabee, and Champlain. They're all your Trent family but within that Trent family, you have your immediate family - still under the same last name - yet it's different. Gzowski is your brothers and sisters, mom and dad. Say hello to Melanie Buddle when you see her around. She's like your new mom away from home :) and we all can agree when I say that, we wouldn't want anyone else!

* What you couldn’t live without at Trent: An open attitude to try new things!

* Why do you love Gzowski?: I love Gzowski because of all the people I met and the memories I made while living in Gzowski! Not to mention the single rooms, double beds and AC… not much more you can ask for!

* Program: Queens-Trent Concurrent Education: Primary/Junior Stream and double major in English and Canadian Studies
* Year of study: Third Year
* Favourite moment at Trent: One of my favourite moments at Trent was ISW last year when all of the first years were learning the cheers. They had so much enthusiasm and excitement when doing the cheers. It just made me so proud and is one of my favourite moments thus far - maybe to be topped by new first years this year!
* What you couldn't live without at Trent: At Trent I couldn't live without my open attitude. I try to get involved and try new things. But if I didn't have an open attitude I would have missed out on so many memories, friends, experiences and my collection of free t-shirts! So be sure to put yourself out there and be open to new things!
* Funny moment since coming to Trent: Coming to Trent, they start to use your legal name on everything. My legal name I have never been called in my entire life (Not even by my parents!!). So every time I go to seminar for the first time the prof will call my name for a while before I realize they're calling me. Then everyone stares at me because they think it's strange I don't know my own name...awkward.
* Why you love Gzowski?:I love Gzowski because it is my home away from home. I love how our belonging to Gzowski doesn't just end when we leave residence, but continues with us throughout our entire university experience.

* What you couldn't live without at Trent: I could not live without my MacBook Pro laptop, at Trent. This was my way of communicating to friends and family back home. Also it was my tool to make my notes for my classes.
* Funny moment since coming to Trent: Funniest moment since coming to Trent would be when my car got splashed by a bus on a rainy day. It was completely covered in mud, so when I got to the parking lot of Gzwoski I went to take a photo and a fox walked right by me. It brushed up against my leg. The funny thing is when I mentioned the story later I kept saying wolf instead of fox, this made people freak! There is quite a difference between a wolf and a fox.
* Why you love Gzowski?: I love Gzwoski because of it's bright and yellow building, it makes me happy.
* Program: Arts and Science Stream for Teachers Education

* Favourite moment at Trent: My favourite moment at Trent was winning the contest for Rail Jam, which is held in Gzowski quad. I got to sit in the hot tub while watching the skiers and boarders. It was a blast.

* Favourite moment at Trent: When I realized that I could be greater than I ever imagined. Trent helped me reach an inch of my potential that will continue to grow because of the time I had here. The greatest friendships I have ever made, a fantastic education, and the skills to continue to grow in a career I absolutely love. Plus I learned how to yolo pretty hard. It's too bad there isn't a degree for that.
* What you couldn't live without at Trent: Getting Involved. In my first year at Trent I didn't do anything outside of class (terrible decision); but, I found a home as an executive member of The Anne Shirley Theatre Company and as an ISW leader. You have 4 years to become whoever you want to be. Give 'er!
* Funny moment since coming to Trent: In Native Poetry we were assigned a "hot and heavy poem" entitled "Bear". 'After reading it I wrote (as a note, no less) "HOT" - literally in big capital letters. Sitting in the front row, the professor asked to borrow my book to look at the poem. Now you're probably thinking I was embarrassed because the professor noticed my "appropriate" note taking. No. She put it on the smart board. Yes. The entire class saw this; and before I realized what had happened, the classroom erupted in laughter, my face grew red, and I was helpless - But it was hilarious!
* Why do you love Gzowski?: I have a confession...I was originally born a member of Otonabee College. I know... kind of gross (Though I have mad respect for every OCer). I came to Gzowski in a moment of need...and it took me in with open arms. Arms made out of cheese. CHEESE OOSING WITH LOVE! And so...I am forever a member of Gzowski. This doesn't really answer the question but YOLO.

* What you couldn’t live without at Trent: I think the best part of university is the people you meet and the friends you make, without those people it would not be the same so definitely the peeps who make me smile :)
* Funny moment since coming to Trent: The midnight shenanigans during first year where a friend and I stole a box of pizza from the first response team and ate it on the LEC rooftop. I don't condone these actions but man that pizza was delicious I also knew everyone on the team so it was more of a prank.
