Life
 
Fun Fact about me: I can easily spend hours and hours in a museum. I think it’s because I like reading all the little descriptions and imagining how each piece played a relevant part in a larger story/context
 
My favorite travel destination: Prince Edward Island! (2 words: little lobsters) 
 
When I’m not at school, I can most likely be found: in a coffee shop scouting out the best espresso in Vancouver
 
Favorite tunes: I’m feeling like a little Life in Technicolor by Coldplay right now
 
Hidden Talent: I can make a pretty decent peach cobbler – but I wouldn’t necessarily trust myself with anything else I attempt to bake 
 
Favorite course taken thus far: PSYC 301
 
Best moment at UBC so far: I have two. From last year: an evening when a bunch of friends and I were huddled in a corner of the Collegia with our shoes off, by the fireplace, textbooks/notes scattered everywhere, eating Mercante pizza and chatting instead of doing work. My second moment happened not too long ago this year when overhearing someone say, “Man, the SLC is SO on point”
 
Favorite Quote: “You don’t have to win to be the best” – my mom’s friend’s 3 y/o daughter (what a genius)
 
 
Love
 
Status: Duo
 
Biggest Turn on: Strong Panini press game
 
Biggest turn off: Using the word “utilize” incorrectly
 
What is your dream date: Surprise me
