Campus Cutie: Konark Bhasin

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at WM chapter.

Hometown: Annandale, VA

Major/Minor: Chemistry, but with a Pre-Law focus

Year: Senior

Extracurricular activities/organizations: Alma Mater Productions’ Special Events, Alpha Phi Omega, South Asian Students Association

Career goals and aspirations: My goal in life is to become a patent attorney and eventually own my own patent firm.

Favorite pick-up lines: “My friends bet me that I wouldn’t be able to talk to the cutest girl here tonight. Do you want to buy some drinks with their money?” and “Me: There are 21 letters in the alphabet, right?  Her: No. There are 26. Me: OH! My bad. I forgot: U R A Q T”

How would you describe your style/fashion choices?: I’d say that I dress fairly casual for the most part. Jeans and a button down is usually my staple. Sometimes, I’ll throw a sweater on if I’m feeling “wild.” I usually try and avoid wearing sweatpants outside, but some days, it’s a necessary evil.

What’s your favorite article of clothing and why?: My Redskin’s Jersey. It was a birthday present from my parents. I wear it while I watch any game. It’s almost become more of a game day tradition for me. It has my last name on it and the number is my birthday.

Who is your celebrity girl crush and why?: Emma Stone, because she is perfect. I’m hoping that she finds this online somehow and falls in love with me.

Name some traits that you look for in a girlfriend: Someone dedicated, but not to a point where she takes herself too seriously. Someone who thinks that she is funny (whether she is or isn’t is irrelevant). Someone who would drop anything to help me if I was in need. Most importantly, someone who I’m proud to show off and who is proud to show me off.

What is/are the theme song (s) that describe (s) your life?: Happy by Pharrell Williams, Banana Pancakes by Jack Johnson, and The Lazy Song by Bruno Mars

What is the best place to go on a date in Williamsburg and why?: The Cheese Shop, at least for a first date. It has a perfect atmosphere and is very stress free, as a first date should be.

What is the best class you’ve taken at William and Mary?: Age of Dinosaurs taught by Rowan Lockwood. This class wasn’t easy by any definition, but it was extremely interesting. My inner dinosaur-obsessed, 7 year old self had a blast.

Give three words that describe you: Outgoing, enthusiastic, goofy

If you could have a superpower, what would it be?: The ability to control time.

Best TV shows that are on this season: Sherlock…Nothing else even comes close to it. Season 3 just ended and I’ve already started planning my schedule around season 4.

What are your plans for Spring Break?: Does sleeping for 18 hours every day count as a plan?
