BC Life
Together in Mod 29A

How did you two meet?

In Latin hip-hop class a few years back, but then we were able to reignite the spark on the freshman week boat cruise.

What are your favorite places to eat both on and off campus?  Beans, Creams, and Dreams.  The one day a year that it is open.  And off campus is Stuart, hands down. 

What are your favorite things about BC?  Salmon pants; Especially the ones with the whales and anchors on them.

What are your most embarrassing moments at BC?

Jordan:  I lost a tooth freshman year and my roommate thought it would be hilarious to make me talk to a UGBC Senate candidate who came to our room to give his campaign talk.  And now my most embarrassing moment is that everyone on campus knows my teeth fall out.  I’ll have people coming up to me saying, “Hey aren’t you the girl whose tooth fell out?”

Jen:  Someone watched me pee one time in Lower.  I didn’t realize the door was open
 oops.

What is one thing you are most excited about for senior year?  Mod Garden.  And trying to sneak in Mod Cat or Mod Dog.

Can each of you give a fun fact about yourself?

Jordan:  I’m King of the Castle in Madison, CT. (The Clam Castle)

Jen:  I used to play hand bells.

What is your favorite movie to watch together?  Norbit

What is your favorite TV show to watch together?  All of Shark Week. And any episode of My Strange Addiction.

What is the song at the top of Mod 29A’s playlist?  “Just a lil bit” by 50 Cent

What do you plan on being for Halloween this year? 

Jordan:  Snuffaluffagus

Jen:  Walter White

Who is your celeb crush?  Jack Black – love those bountiful curves.

What is your favorite hangout spot on campus?  Megabed.  Everyone’s invited.

 

In the Romance Department


Taken or single?  Hahahaha. (collective laugh)

Ideal guy:  Sexy and succulent, with zero to no muscle tone.  Like Jack Black.

Deal breakers:  Muscles. Excessive body hair. 

Ideal date (with each other):  First, we will eat seven pounds of sushi from Fin’s, and then get Chill.  After returning to our Mod, we will watch Parks and Rec. To end the night, we’ll bridge the two-foot gap between our bed by taking our tin can telephone and talking to each other from across the room.

Advice to freshmen:  “60% of the time it works every time.”

Number one on your BC bucket lists:  Have a public rap battle.

Mod 29A Motto:  Keep calm – it’s me, Todd Kraines!
