Hi everyone, my name is Caroline Kunisky and I am a
sophomore here at Penn State Berks. My major is Hospitality Management, in
order to pursue my dream job as a Wedding Planner. I am highly involved on
campus, I am the Secretary of the Dance Team, a member of the Hotel Restaurant
Society, Lion Ambassadors, Orientation Leaders, THON, and now I am a blogger! Which
makes me so excited to see what else is in store for this semester.

So let’s start from the very beginning. I grew up in
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania with the most supportive and lovely family I could
ever ask for. My family includes, my parents, Michael and Leslie, my older
sister, Maria, and my little West Highland Terrier, Biscuit. Maria and I grew
up going to the dance studio every day after school for our entire lives. And
we would not want it any other way. At dance, my sister was in the class above
me, but nothing stopped me from getting to where she was. I don’t think Maria
ever knew how much I truly looked up to her at the studio. I always wanted to
be a ballerina like her. My sister is now 22 years old, and is finishing her
last year at West Chester University in order to become a Special Needs
teacher. It’s crazy to think that she is going to be graduating in the spring! I
cannot wait until I see my number one fan cross the stage as I bawl my eyes
out. I am tremendously proud to call her my sister, let alone my best friend.
Not only are my sister and I extremely close but, my
family in general is. Our favorite thing to do as a family is to travel. We
love to explore places we have never been to. In the past couple of years our
big trips included London, Paris, Italy, St. Maartens, Cayman Islands and of
course, trips in the United States as well. I absolutely loved seeing the
Eiffel Tower, the Coliseum and Big Ben, as well as swimming with dolphins and
stingrays in the Caribbean. It is memories like these that I’ll never forget.
Without my family introducing me to Penn State, I
probably would not know much about it. I decided to go to Penn State Berks
because I grew up going to all of the football games and basketball games with
my parents and sister at Happy Valley. I was the little girl that wore
cheerleading outfits to every game, dreamed about becoming a Lionette, and could
eat an entire dish of Peachy Paterno ice cream at the Creamery. Ever since, I knew
that this place had my heart.

I am so thankful that I decided to be a Nittany Lion when
I chose my school. Ever since I arrived, I’ve never been happier. I enjoy all
of my challenging courses, I enjoy learning more about my major every day in
class, and most of all I enjoy the people I have met. The Dance Team is full of
all of my best friends, we are basically a big happy family. I mean nothing can
be better than dancing with your best friends and having the time of your life.
Being a part of Lion Ambassadors has made me love my school even more, I truly
look up to each and every fellow Lion Ambassador. HRS Club has made me fall in
love with my major all over again. And Orientation Leaders has made me realize
why I decided to come to this school with such pride. Nothing in the world
could make me happier, and I am so proud to call myself a Nittany Lion.
Until next time Penn Staters!
Caroline Kunisky
