Pet-Peeves: When righties sit in lefty desks. We already can’t use scissors, at least give us our desks. Also, GS students.

If you could have a super power what would it be and why: The ability to walk through walls. That way, I could actually walk in a straight line from one place to another on campus.
If you could invite anyone to dinner, you would ask: The cast of Arrested Development. I can’t imagine a funnier group of people.
HamDel decides to name a sandwich after you (what’s it called and what’s in it): The PowerTrip – chicken cutlet, melted cheddar, bacon, avocado, balsamic vinaigrette (it’s basically a love-child of the HamDel Betsy and Subsconscious GPA)
