Hello, Hello! My name is Abigail Bangs, however I can go by Abby, Abs, Abigail, really anything (for the most part,) I don’t mind. My pronouns are she\/her\/hers and I was born and raised in Springfield, Virginia, which is adjacent to DC. Coming to URichmond was not a long drive at all, only around 1.5 hours; so coming here didn’t feel like coming to university, which was weird. A part of me feels like traveling far for college is almost like a wright of passage, which I know isn’t true. Anyways, I have one brother who is around 2 years older than me, his name is Will. Then my parent’s names are Gary and Mabel, Gary being from Iowa and Mabel being from the Philippines. I have one dog, her name is Bea, and she’s a selective sweetheart. Bea often does not like children, nor does she like other dogs; my guess is that she feels overwhelmed by them but I don’t really know. Anyways, Bea is a husky\/shepherd mix, with heterochromia, meaning she has two different colored eyes. I love spending time with Bea, but recently since she’s not at UR, I’ve loved spending time with Emmett the therapy dog, when passing by.<\/p>\n

Some of my favorite activities include working out, sleeping, listening to music, watching anime, and most of all, spending time with cherished friends. That last one is a little iffy since I consider myself an introvert with extroverted tendencies, but I do love hanging out with them so it’s okay. My music taste is very much all over the place, where some days I feel like listening to super depressing music, and then other days alternative rock-it varies day to day. However, my top guilty pleasure is listening to anime openings when I workout, or really any time because I correlate them with hype intros to shows, so it in turn makes me hype lol. Anyways, I’m looking forward to class with everyone!<\/p>\n
