Meet this week’s Campus Cutie, Garret Hill (right)!
YEAR: 2nd
MAJOR: Sciences with a minor in Business
HOMETOWN: Prince George
ACTIVITIES: Soccer, hockey, waterskiing, travelling
RELATIONSHIP STATUS: Single (lonely)
HC: Name your favourite quality in a girl.
Humour is pretty important. I don’t want to be shallow, but being pretty too.
HC: What’s your favourite holiday?
I know everyone says Christmas, but I love Christmas. Easter is a close second because my parents still put on Easter egg hunts. I just really like the chocolate.
HC: What do you love most about UVic?
Coming from the north, I love the mild winters and being able to play soccer outside year round. And the people, especially my roommates.
HC: What’s your favourite emoji and why?
Monkey covering its eyes. All the monkey ones actually; I use those a lot.
HC: What is your guilty pleasure?
Iggy Azealia, Nicki Minaj, female rappers in general.
HC: Name a fun fact about yourself.
I’m really into summer activities. So water skiing, water boarding, wake surfing, spending time at the lake… I’m a huge lake person.
HC: What’s your pre-party pump up song?
Thunderstruck by ACDC because you can play that drinking game. You can get pretty fired up while listening to it.
HC: What’s your idea of a perfect date?
A nice sunny day, go out for brunch on the harbour, get a hot chocolate, then go skating at that rink at the Fairmont. I’m really good at skating so it would be a good opportunity to show off.
HC: If you could get a plane ticket to anywhere, where would you go?
Probably to South America since it’s still sort of winter. I would love to go to Europe but I’d rather go there in the summer. So I’d go to Rio de Janeiro because of the beaches and the soccer scene.
HC: If you met yourself for the first time, what would your first impression be?
I’d say first impression would be kind of shy, but this guy is cool underneath it all. He’s done some rad things in his life.
HC: What’s a piece of advice you’d give your 12 year old self?
I’d still give it to myself now, but don’t be scared of what people think of you.
HC: Would you ever get a tattoo? If yes, what would you get?
It would take me a long time to get one because I’m wary of what people think, so if I were to get one it would be somewhere discrete like my ankle. It would probably be family related because I’m not that artsy. Or something small on my ass.
HC: What did you want to be when you were a kid?
Orthodontist. I was thinking about the money. It was being in the NHL first, but when I realised that would never happen, I decided [to be an] orthodontist.
