Pizza is my Love Language

What is your love language? Words of affirmation? Quality time? Or receiving ifts? Sonoma State residential advisors in Sauvignon hosted an event called Pizza is my Love Language to help students get more in touch with themselves. Events like these allow for more life-long memories to be created at SSU.

With Valentine’s day around the corner, Seawolves may find themselves thinking about love. Events such as Pizza is my Love Language can help students get out of their dorms and have something to do. Kaylah Sanders, a residential advisor said, “This event is to get residents to learn more about themselves… as the planner of the event, we provide the food and a safe environment for students to discover themselves and meet more Seawolves on campus..”

Pizza is my Love Language served free pizza and a love language test. This test allows a person to find out how they want to be loved and how they reciprocate love back to others. Residential Advisor Grace King said, “Pizza is my Love Language allows residents to more insight into their personality and just have fun.” The test has a series of statements and the resident must circle which statement best describes them. The student then tallies all their answers and scores them to see what love language suits them. Resident, Johnny Hershman was one of the residents who attended the event and took the love language test. After taking the test, Hershman described the results of his test. “My love language was a close tie between words of affirmation and physical touch.”

Residential advisors for all on campus villages take the time to plan and come up with ideas for events. According to Grace King, Pizza is my Love Language differs from other events.The residential advisor said, “It’s laid back because we have a lot of events such as obstacle courses or capture the flag. I like how this is a focus on chatting and sitting down.” Kaylah Sanders, a residential advisor said, “I love interacting with residents and getting them to learn more about themselves… I always encourage students to attend on campus events.”

Fellow seawolves should come to their village events. There is free food, engaging activities, and friends to hang out with. Resident Johnny Hershman said, “It’s fun to get out of the dorm every once and awhile... I enjoy attending the free RA events that they put on. Pizza is my Love Language is just one of the many events where students can make memories with one another. It’s an opportunity to make more friends and explore what events SSU has to offer.
