shared so much with me. I have nothing but love for Kodi and the people I have met here.
I wrote a short and sweet write-up earlier which obscurely detailed these last two years. I
was at my worst and they picked me up.I lived with the most annoying, yet the most kind
hearted roommate I could’ve asked for. I had the most dad friend ever who chugged milo
and poetry, and her hugs are the best thing in the world. I met the weirdest maru kid ever,
unlikely places. I never thought that a chilli-loving, lanky, Telugu dude would be my best
but I’d give anything to hear his high-pitched screams again. I’ve jammed with people to

Thank you Kodi for these last two years, I cannot
tell you how much they have shaped me. Thank
you for all the people I have met.
Starting off in Bartlett West I discussed anime
and Switzerland, met my real father, the best
boyfriend, the most hyderabadi hyderabadi, one
later. Thank you, class of 2020. Telugu Tamil giant. I met this thoughtful dwarf
of my favourite veena players, had a tree in my
room that ingrained his roots into my life, met my
Telugu soulmate, a gym buddy and this tall
who refuses to leave, I met this woke genius who
writes like a madman, I met this enthu actor who
impresses me every day, and finally I met my
most relatable soul friend. I met this tall Telugu
woman who told me I was a dud, I met this
Kannadiga who told me she was a dud, and I met
this Kuwaiti/American/Gujju who showed me that
we are all idiots. I met Arpu, an artistic girl who
stayed with me through it all. I met my coming of
age high school quiz partner, I met this feminist
icon, and this French swiss conflict starter. I met
the panda to my giraffe, I met the Sadru to my
Subramaniam and I met my garlic bread taste
tester. I met this Marvel conspiracy theorist, this
mallu who listens to Guns N Roses and finally I
met Tucker, who can only be described as
Tucker.
I thank you Kodi because for me, Kodi will always
be these people. I thank you Kodi because I
cannot imagine life without them and I don’t want
to imagine life without them. Thank you for letting
me meet them and thank you for being in my life.
I love you Kodi and I love you all very much.
