Pet peeve: In my biology class (a big lecture hall) someone will sneeze, and then a kid on the complete opposite end of the room will yell out “Bless you!” It’s nice and all, but completely unnecessary.

Love Life
Ideal date: Dinner in the North End with great conversation followed by Mike’s Pastry. Then we’d walk down to the waterfront while eating our desserts.
Celeb crush: Jessica Alba
First kiss: In 7th grade, on the 4th of July, I was in the park with the girl I had been “dating” for 2 months, which is a big deal in seventh grade. We were sitting on the grass, I brought a blanket of course to be cliché, and when the fireworks started, I kissed her.
Ideal girl: My number one requirement is that she has to be able to make me laugh and laugh with me. We have to be able to have a conversation where we don’t have to try hard. It should be effortless, and of course, she has to be cute.
