HC: Tell us a bit about yourself.
I put smiles on people’s faces all over campus.

My hometown is Oshawa. Favourite things about back home would consist of going to the bar and seeing family when I go back home.
HC: Describe yourself in 3 words.
Better.Than.Sex. [laughs] But seriously.. happy, driven and passionate.
HC: What do you look for in a significant other?
She has to have soft eyes, nice smile, with a good sense of humour. Down to earth, she has to be able to go with the flow and be spontaneous. She has to own her laugh, be smart, passionate about whatever she does, confident, and outgoing.

Playing sports and anything athletic: basketball, volleyball, baseball. I like hanging out with friends, watching movies, listening to music and going to the bar.
HC: What are your pet peeves?
People who walk slow, bad odour, and bad hygiene.

I’ll be a cop, I’ll have one kid out of the three, then probably one on the way, have my own house, my own car, and be with Mrs. Right.

Crazy times in Dominican, that is all.
HC: If you could go anywhere in the world where would it be and why?
Italy, Greece and Australia, mostly for culture and their scenery.
HC: If someone gave you $1 million dollars what would you do with it?
I would invest in something to continue my wealth, share it with family, buy my parents a nice house, pay off school tuition, just live life happily. I would give away 30% to churches then split the money up between causes and donations.
HC: What is your ideal date?
Something cool and exciting. Something unexpected.
HC: Who do you think should make the first gesture when asking someone out, the girl or the guy?
Either one.

Anywhere that has alcohol. Bars for days.

Hitch!
