Campus Cutie: Gabe Blake Rodriguez

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Auburn chapter.

Age: 21

Major: Dual in History and Economics

Relationship: Single

Typical Friday Night: To be honest, probably doing research or playing a video game with my buddy up at Tech.

Ideal Date: One where we could get excellent food and then go dancing.

Celebrity Crush: Male: Bradley Cooper–I mean come on, the guy can speak fluent French. Female: Probably Lana Del Ray.

Post-Grad Plans: I want to get into a law school and after a year apply to the Navy JAG program.

Best Attribute: My best attribute, I believe, would have to be my willingness to listen and understand people’s beliefs and positions, even if I do not personally agree with them.

Best Part about Auburn: The most fun part of my time here at Auburn has to be the people. There are such a wide array of folks that you can meet and chat with at any one time, it truly has been a great experience.

Turn-on: My biggest turn on would be a woman who I can have a conversation with and makes me lose sense of time.

Turn-off: My turn off would be someone who claims to hold a position without providing proper justification of that belief, no matter if I agree or disagree with them.

Worst Date: My worst date would have to be from freshman year of high school. The plan was for me to take a girl from my cross-county team to the movies, what I didn’t know at the time was that her friend decided that she was going to tag along as well. Bewildered by this new piece of information, I decided to press on because, “how bad could it really be?” I was led to believe that it was custom on our planet that when two people are on a date at the movies that they sit next to each other. Apparently this girl was not informed of this because she proceeded to sit between the two of us. Looking back at it, she probably would have changed sides if I had tried to do the same. I had even planned to take my date to a pizzeria nearby, but alas this intruder from space decided that we had fulfilled our mandatory quota of fun–which I could only assume was near zero–and pulled the plug. Yup, that would be the worst date that I have had.
