Josh Casares ’17

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

Class Standing: Freshman

Birthday: May 12th. Currently 18 years old.

Hometown: Brooklyn, NY

Major: Marketing 

Hobbies: Right now I’m really into video editing and shooting. Film Stuff. My interests switch up every couple of months.  I used to play basketball a lot.  And at one point I was dabbling in the Turntables a little bit.  But right now, I’m focused on video editing.  I really enjoy it so I think I’m going to stick with this one for a while.

Favorite Food: Buffalo wings with ranch dressing

Campus Involvement: I am a member of the Black Student Union but I’m looking to get involved in more around campus.  This semester I have a big course load, but by next semester I’m definitely going to join more clubs.

Favorite Feature and Quality in Yourself: I guess I look kind of cool. But as far a quality goes, I feel I have a good vision for art.

Favorite Feature and Quality in a Partner: I need to be with someone that is able to hold a conversation and it’s attractive when they know how to dress.  I need someone that is reliable, and gives me my privacy and respect when I need it. 

Ideal Date: Going out to dinner in the city and then walking around at nighttime.  We could go to the bridge and overlook the pier on the Brooklyn side of the bridge. We would chill and talk and just enjoy our time together.

Worst Date: I haven’t really been on a worst date.  They usually go pretty well. I don’t mess up on that kind of stuff.

Dating Pet Peeve:  I don’t like when girls talk to their friends on the phone while we are out–or if they are constantly texting. If we’re hanging out and you’re talking to your friends all the time, it’s annoying.  If my girl is out with her friends, I wouldn’t blow up her phone either.  I would give her space. And I want the same in return.

In 10 years: I would probably be living in Brooklyn. Either working for a marking company or doing my own thing with film.

With $1 million dollars: I would go and buy my own place.  Just so I wouldn’t have to worry about that for the rest of my life.  I would buy the most expensive and nicest place in Brooklyn.

A Place to Visit: San Francisco because the vibe of the place seems cool.

If you were trapped on an island, what one item would you bring: I would bring my iPhone of course.  But since there is no service and I probably can’t even use my phone then I would bring a food truck and Snapples.  Since there isn’t any food on the island and I got to eat.
