HC: Where is your favorite spot to study on campus?
HM: Does Ugly Mug count? Because 10/10, I’m gonna be here.
HC: Ooh, we love Ugly Mug. What’s your favorite drink?
HM: I get the Mexican hot cocoa and I ask for a shot of espresso in it. It’s an UgMug hack, if you will.
HC: What are you currently watching?
HM: I just finished re-watching “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend” season 2, and I think I’m gonna start Jane the Virgin after.
HC: If you could have a meal with anyone from history or present day, who would you eat with and why?
HM: Can I invite more than one person? I would like to sit down with Mindy Kaling and Amy Poehler and Rachel Bloom. It would be such a lit brunch.
HC: What is one thing you hope to achieve while at Gettysburg?
HM: I think my senior recital is going to be my proudest moment (it’s the equivalent of a capstone for music majors). It’s a synthesis of everything I’ve done at Gettysburg. I’m terrified, but also excited.
We highly recommend checking out Heather’s senior recital on April 8th at 7PM in Paul Recital Hall. Come show your love for this babe!
