HCO: Describe yourself in a tweet:
I would describe myself as a fun-loving, energetic, goody-toe shoes, hopeless romantic, who cares about his family and friends. #keeper
HCO: The question on everyone’s mind… what is your relationship status?
Single.
HCO: What is it going to take for a lucky lady to catch your eye?
A genuine personality, and a nice smile. And I like some engaging, witty batter.
HCO: What are your turn offs?
Lack of authenticity, I try not to pick people apart though. If I was turned off by someone I probably wouldn’t be talking to them in the first place.
HCO: What don’t you understand about women?
I don’t pick up on subtleties. It’s like how some guys are color blind, I am subtleties illiterate.
HCO: Do you have any tactics or one-liners to get a lady?
Compliment + Introduction= mathematic success. It was invented by the ancient Greeks. I mean its not like hunting game, in order to be authentic it has to be sincere and in the moment.
HCO: Besides being a ladies man, what are you interested in?
I am not ladies man. I’m just a guy who was exposed to too much James Bond and Frank Sinatra as a kid. I’m a people person. I like interacting with others; I learn sports just to meet people. Right now I’m learning soccer and boxing. Current affairs: pop culture.
HCO: So you just studied abroad: how was that?
Well I had never been on a plane until I left the country, and I was 20 years old! I got to visit 11 countries, and travel on the weekends. My favorite part was my host family. We had 8 hours of school and then homework 4 days a week. It was worth every hour and every penny.
HCO: Being a Campus Cutie is something you can now cross off your bucket list, what are some other things on there that you want to have done before graduation?
I want to get accepted to a Top 50 Law School, I want to go skydiving, and get a motorcycle. I want to go to Disneyland; yeah I know I had a deprived childhood. I’m kind of just a day-by-day kind of guy.
HCO: So let’s hear it, what is your most embarrassing moment?
I have no shame. I don’t really get embarrassed; I just let it roll of my back. There’s nothing that a smile and a shrug can’t fix.
HCO: What does a typical day look like for you?
I make dinner the night before, and then I wake up, make a protein shake and bathe. Then I eat breakfast; eggs yogurt and toast, milk and espresso. Then I go to class, followed by some work at the Jacqua. Then I hit the gym to get swole, shower, eat dinner in that order… then I read for class and go to bed. Then rinse, lather and repeat.
HCO: What do you do in your spare time?
Lift weight religiously. When I’m not doing that, I play any intramural that I can. This term I am doing soccer, volleyball and softball.
HCO: How do you have time for all that?
I try to make it work as best as I can. If the body runs as a car mine runs on espresso.
HCO: If you were an animal what would you be?
I have come to the realization that I am a dog. Easily distracted, if you give me attention and affection I will always be loyal. And I like to be scratched.
HCO: Since you love espresso, would you rather make it or buy a fancy drink?
I don’t like the fufu stuff. I like it straight and black.
HCO: Favorite Food?
I eat everything in sight. My favorite it whatever is in front of me.
HCO: Who is the one family member that has influenced you the most?
The answer is my Catholic school teaching mother, and her demonstrations though her strength with breast cancer. Plus she taught me how to be a real gentleman.Â
