How do you relieve stress? I play squash, swim, and watch 1970’s British comedy shows such as Fawlty Towers, Yes Minister, and Black Adder. However, with that being said I don’t seem to experience the intense stress that other students speak of.Â
Â
If you could travel to any place in the world this instant, where would it be? Canada’s north, Nunavut in particular. Or Mauritania, and that’s because it has some of the longest trains in the world.
Â
What immediately comes to mind when you think of U of T? Ivy
Â
Pet peeves? Unpunctuality mainly. But on the whole I’m a fairly easy going person. Â
Â
What are the most important things you look for in a relationship? Someone with whom you can have good conversations, fun, and just generally be yourself around. In all honesty, I’m not really looking for anything, it’s more an emotional reaction that I can’t put my finger on.Â
Â
What traits do you most admire in a girl? Intelligence, and especially spontaneity and humour.Â
Â
Favourite movie and/or celebrity you most idolize? John Cleese.Â
Â

Â
Career you wished for as a child:Â Formula One racing driver, engine driver, or bus driver. Basically, I really like mechanical things. Â
Â
What you hope to become now and other noteworthy future plans? I am going to China in the summer where I will be taking a course and writing a field research paper. After university, I could either shack in my parent’s basement and play with my train set for the rest of my life OR become an investigative journalist/lawyer and change the world in whatever capacity I can.
