Online Courses: Friend or Foe?

2/14/2013

I can count on one hand how many times I’ve left a three hour lecture and been in a good mood. By the last 20 minutes I wish I could be at home on the couch with a snack. That’s where the beauty of online courses comes in.

Tell me a little bit about yourself.
I’m an overall easy-going guy who likes to hang out and have fun. I like video games, especially Skyrim and food, a lot. I also like to party.

Tell me something random about you that not many people know.
I really hate when people bite clothing material, like the drawstrings on a sweater. Teeth on clothing just makes me go weird, it’s been like that since I was little.

What compliment do you get most about yourself?
I’d probably have to say that I have nice eyes. I hear that a lot.

What is the first thing you say/do to get a girl’s attention?
I’d probably wink at them or something. Anytime I’ve been out at a club or something and saw a girl I was attracted to, a wink always seems to follow.

Describe your ideal girl.
I’d have to say that my ideal girl is one with some curves, along with a pretty face and nice eyes. Personality wise, a little bit geeky, so liking video games would be great. Also, a girl who is fun to be around, and who is up for adventures and willing to try new things. Having an open mind is important.

What is the cutest thing you’ve done for a girl?
Back in high school, I surprised my girlfriend of a year who went to a different high school by putting flowers and chocolates in her locker, after I had told her that I wouldn’t be able to see her that day.

Where is your favourite place to be on campus? Probably the quad. I like all the grass, being able to sit outside. Plus, a lot of people are out there when the weather is nice, so that makes it a fun place.

What are your favourite activities or hobbies? I like to listen to music a lot. I also like to go to the gym, watch sports, and nap. Definitely nap.

What is a random fact about you? I placed Gold in Taekwondo for Canada.

How would you describe your personality? I consider my personality to be very easygoing and laidback. Also very friendly, I like being social.

What do you find attractive in a girl? Physically, I like a girl’s eyes, smile and hair. A girl with a good personality who can handle jokes well. I’m pretty laidback, so a girl who is able to just chill and not have to worry about going out is attractive.

What is the first thing that you notice about a girl? One of the first things that I notice about a girl is her ability to present herself, by how she dresses, and how she handles herself socially. Also in the winter, when a girl comes in from the cold and her nose and cheeks are red, that is the cutest thing.

Biggest turn off? A girl who is rude, to me and to others. Also, a girl with no sense of humor is not attractive. Lastly, a girl who talks about past relationships a lot, the past should stay in the past.

Where is your favourite place to be on campus? I’d have to say the Unicentre, everything is there.
 
What is a random fact about you? I’m Aboriginal. No one ever believes that though because I don’t look like it.
 
Personality wise, what are your turn-ons? A girl who is down to earth and respects herself and her family. Also, definitely a girl with a sense of humor; I like to crack a lot of jokes. Overall, I’d have to say I like just an honest and caring girl.
 
What about turn-offs? A girl who talks bad about her family. Also, someone who cannot be trusted, trust is key.
 
What are your favourite physical qualities in a girl? A girl's eyes for sure. Or if a girl is in a sundress and cowboy boots, yeah definitely.  
 
Are there any songs that remind you of your girlfriend? Well to start, any song that I’ve written for her. But other than that, country songs such as “Old Alabama” by Brad Paisley, “Smile” by Uncle Kracker and any song by Luke Bryan because he is her favourite.
