I had a very difficult 2013 and the kindest girl I ever met got me through it. A few nice dates did more for me than decades of studying. As a result, I must show what might seem a disproportionate amount of my gratitude, which I've never done in this scenario before, I guess I just need to know what you'd do in my shoes...

send her a letter expressing what you are thankful for. if you were long-distance dating, I'd suggest sending flowers. if she were close-by, I'd suggest treating her to a nice dinner.

Figuring out a dorm # will be difficult but I'll try. I may be hand writing this post in Android but that of course does't equate to mailing you something signed...

Flowers are a good idea either way. As long as you say something like "Thanks for being there for me when I needed you. Happy Valentines Day" on the card.

The bright side is that I can afford & find all kinds of flowers, although I still have no clear idea of where to send them. I may work with the internet but I'd rather not resort to it here.
