Friendly Friday!

Welcome back to Friendly Friday! Today we have featured our lovely Allison (pictured on right of photograph)


Name: Allison Leigh Wingfield
Major: Environmental Policy and Planning, with a minor in Public and Urban Affairs

Favorite cartoon: I’m sort of indecisive, so I’ll go with Arthur and Scooby Doo. They were the staples of my childhood and I remember coming home from elementary school every day and watching them with my mom and little brother. It was always the highlight of my day :)

Favorite thing about being a student at VT: When the weather actually cooperates, I just love how beautiful this campus is, especially with all the spring flowers and buds. The beauty and renewal of this season reminds me of how awesome and caring our God is.

If you could do anything without the possibility of failure and money wasn’t a restraint: what would you do? I have a pretty long bucket list going, so it would be amazing to cross everything off of it someday.
What is my favorite thing to do to rest and relax? I love coffee, so whenever a cup of Joe is involved, good things happen. I also love to cook for people (just not in the yucky dorm kitchen…). But really, anytime I can just hang out with people and laugh I am a happy camper!

Are you reading any books right now? Hopefully I won’t lose any friends with this admission, but I have been reading The Hunger Games since Christmas...I promise to finish it before I see the movie though!!! Other than that, I’ve been reading through Exodus for Lent (since it has 40 chapters!).

Favorite place to eat lunch? I love the Greek salads from West End, especially when they are made by Chelsea Goodsell ♥

What are you looking forward to about summer? I still don’t have a job or anything planned so far, so I’m really just excited to see what adventures God will take me on. I am also SUPER excited to see what happens as far as the BCM summer mission trips!

How has God encouraged you lately? I have several close friends who are either not Christians, or have been struggling with their faith recently, and God has just provided so many opportunities for me to share His love with them. I struggle with “evangelism” sometimes, so God showing me how to be a light for Him through these close relationships has been such a blessing and a joy.
