Hello!!

I’m Allie Harrington. This summer of 2021 is my final semester at UVic. I’m an English major here and I am beyond excited to finish up my schooling. A bit about me, I have been super involved on campus throughout my entire university career. You may have seen me throw tee shirts at basketball games or try to hype up a crowd at one of the events I was involved in. Also at one point I was a campus tour guide and I have been involved with a handful of panels encouraging high school students to come to UVic! These opportunities has encouraged me to pursue a career in the field I was involved in (event planning). In addition to that, I love all things having to do with food! I cook and bake all the time, my most recent item that I am proud of is a coconut lime shortbread cookie! Along with cooking I love going out and trying new foods and restaurants. If you are in the Victoria area and you want to try something new yet comforting, I cannot recommend a better place than, Wind Cries Mary. They are located in a basement in Bastion Square next to the nightclub Upstairs. Stay tuned for another blog post about my experience here.

I am excited to grow my social media knowledge and my personal learning network within this class. Along with getting to know some of my classmates in a less conventional way than the classroom! I can’t wait to see where the inspiration leads and what is to come!!
