1. Are you a morning person or a night person?
I am definitely not a morning person. I have trouble getting up early, and sometimes I will not even hear the alarm for the first ten minutes.

2. If you could take a year off and go traveling, where would it be?
I would like to go traveling to South America. I think it is such a beautiful place with so many fun places to visit.

3. Is there anyone in the world you love so much that you could do anything for them?
Yes. My niece and nephew are the greatest little people in my life. And if there was anything I could do for them to help them out I would do it in a heartbeat. They bring all the fun and inspiration I need.

4. What exactly is your idea of “your type of guy”?
Well, he would ideally be tall so I can wear heels. He has to look like Henry Cavill and/or Jensen Ackles, and if you guys reading do not know who they are you should look them up! :D But besides that, someone that makes me laugh and above all, someone who respects me.

5. What’s the most adventurous thing you’ve ever done?
I always have to be the one to dare my guy cousins because they can be little babies sometimes. Once I dared them to jump off a 40 feet cascade, and of course I had to go first and show them how girls do it. Another time I dared them to go bungee jumping, so again I had to show them because they could not handle it. And even after I jumped they chickened out. 

Madeline Hunt is a senior at UCLA majoring in Communication Studies with a minor in Spanish. Originally from the laidback beach-town of Santa Barbara, the California native finds the fast-paced nature and eccentricity of LA extremely exciting. Once more, she decided to expand her horizons when she studied abroad this past fall in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Madeline wants to pursue a career in the entertainment industry and is considering broadcast journalism and public relations as potential options. On campus, she is currently the Public Relations & Marketing Director for the student- run organization Fashion and Student Trends and an intern at E! News. She served as an entertainment reporter on UCLA’s accredited student newspaper, The Daily Bruin, under the video division and is a current member of Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority. During her free time, she enjoys playing tennis, exercising, going to the beach, shopping (online shopping will be the death of her!), reading Glamour and Cosmo, eating Mexican food and sushi, spending time with her friends, practicing her Spanish, and satisfying her weakness for caffeine with Starbuck’s lattes.
