What’s one girl trend you don’t understand?

YOLO.

What do you look for in a girl? How about a deal breaker?

Pizza Lunchables.

What’s your most embarrassing moment?

I ran to class once.

What’s your favorite pick-up line?

Can you teach me how to grind?

What makes you different from the average Colby student?

My dad’s gay.

What’s your favorite Colby event of the year?

Kickball.

What’s #1 on your Colby bucket list?

Have Brendan McNeil and Derek Youngman move into our house.

How did your first kiss go down?

Well, it was in the 6th grade.  I sent an AIM to my gf at the time. She was hot.  We agreed to meet up in the Bishop’s garden after school.  Then she kissed me.  I’d been practicing with my pillow a lot, so it was pretty good.

If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would it be and why?

Head out to California and hang out with my little brother.

What’s one piece of advice you would give to freshmen girls? What about freshmen boys?

Freshman girls: make out with Bjorn before you graduate. Freshman Guys: Make out with Bjorn before you graduate.

Any guilty pleasures?

Cranberry-Lime Polar Seltzers.

What’s your dream job?

Something that lets me buy a cabin in the woods in northern California near a great trout stream.

What kind of shampoo do you use?

Whatever my housemates buy.

Write a love haiku…

Her lips look so chapped

Luckily I have chapstick

Here, take this chapstick

Which boy band would you be in and why?

I would have started my own group called Eric Eberhart and the Bad Frankies.  Ebs would be lead vocals, I would play guitar and Bjorn would be a background dancer.

What’s your spirit animal and why?

I actually just recently did an online test for this.  It told me I was a Killer Whale which makes sense because I’m extremely good at swimming and I love mayonnaise.

Any stuffed animals?

Not currently, but I used to have about 50.

What’s your favorite shade of Bjorn?

Definitely Bar-Night Bjorn.  It’s just evolved so much. When he first got here Bjorn was all about Abercrombie graphic tees and American Eagle ripped jeans.  Now seeing him head out in a blue oxford, pair of Levi’s and some boat shoes really brings a tear to my eye.  He just oozes confidence.
