Name: Connor Johnstone
Hometown: Louisville, Ky.
Graduation Year: 2015?
Major and future plans: Mechanical Engineering, possibly double major with Physics. I’ll either work my way up a mechanical engineering firm, start my own business or do something with quantum physics.
Clubs you are in: Being a member of Alpha Tau Omega is probably my main club involvement, I sometimes hop in on the boxing club team though, and I plan to start a wrestling club as soon as I can get that all together. I like physical sports. But I also do undergraduate research off and on.
Favorite thing about UK: UK is a huge school, so it’s pretty cool that there are always new people to meet, no matter how many you know. Also, classes aren’t too hard. I like that.
Relationship Status: Single
Ideal date: My ideal date would have to include some awesome food, that’s my first priority. So it would start off by taking the girl to a really nice restaurant. From there though, I guess I like spontaneity more than anything, so there are a lot of options. We could do anything from a walk in the woods to watch the sun set somewhere scenic to sneaking into some place we’re not supposed to be. Doing something a little mischievous always adds to the fun.
Best pick up line: Going up to a girl with a “How you doing?” like Joey from Friends is always fun.
First thing you notice in the opposite sex: Probably the way she holds herself. I like girls with a lot of confidence and a girl who knows what she’s doing is going to be the first girl to catch my eye.
Hobbies/Interests: Wrestling was always my favorite sport in high school. But I also enjoy music and art, regardless of whether I actually have any skill.
Biggest Fear: I don’t have fears.
Favorite movie/TV show: Changes all the time. Right now I like “Community.” It’s a little known TV show.
Favorite color: Green
Fun fact: I ate 19,000 calories per day and gained 17 pounds in the two days after wrestling season ended last year.
Life motto: Carpe Diem (seize the day), because every day has so much potential. It’s just on us to reach out and seize it.
Sports you play: I guess I was supposed to say wrestling here. But I’ve also done some MMA stuff, cross country, track, and lacrosse.
Are you superstitious? Not at all. I love going to haunted houses and stuff to make fun of my friends who believe in all that.
