This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at U Chicago chapter and does not reflect the views of Her Campus.

Name: Jiyoung Kim                 

Year: 4th Year

Major/Minor: Political Science and English

House: ex-Woodward

Hometown: Northwest suburbs of Chicago

Campus Activities: aKDPhi and The Gate

Favorite drink: Fresh black coffee

One must-see place in Chicago: Art Institute. We have amazing museums (and we get in for free), so why not?

Secret Weakness: Kryptonite

Study Song: Post-rock albums. I’m pretty partial to my God Is An Astronaut collection for fast writing.

One Wish: To be, on the whole, content with how I chose to direct my life

3 Words to Describe Yourself: sarcastic, independent, and easily distracted…

1 Item on Your Bucket List: Cliff diving!

What would your tattoo be of? I’m thinking highly stylized scorpion?

Favorite place to eat on campus: Div School and Stuart

Favorite place to study on campus: I’m a Mansueto junkie. I would go to Logan Café because I love studying there, but it’s too far to trek in polar vortex weather

Most-played songs on iPod: No iPod, but probably Elliott Smith. I have the live version of him playing King’s Crossing, and I’m pretty enamored with it.
