Patrick ’14

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

Name: Patrick Hovsepian
Year: Junior
Major: Computer Science
Hometown: Chelmsford, MA
Relationship Status: Single
Interests/Activities: I’m a total nerd at heart; I love anything that has to do with computers! When I’m not being a complete geek, I’m hanging out and doing those kinds of things that kids like me do nowadays. I’m big into music and I love skateboarding. You’ll probably see me cruising around campus at some point this year and, if you’re lucky, you might even witness me wipeout as I’m known for taking regular spills. One of my major interests is food and therefore I thoroughly enjoy cooking. Above all else, I don’t think there’s anything better than being surrounded by great company and even better conversations.
Describe your dream girl: Oh my, my dream girl you say… Well, for starters, she’s going to have to put up with me and that, my dear, is no easy task. If she sticks around, she has to be witty, spontaneous, and downright hilarious. I want to be able to have intelligent conversations one minute and jocular exchanges the next. Not only that, but she has to have a killer smile too; one of those smiles that can light up the whole room – I love those. Beauty may momentarily capture my attention but I’ve been known to get distracted easily. I need someone that can keep up with me and yet keep me focused all the while.
Fun fact? I know how to solve a Rubik’s cube in less than 2 minutes.
Pet peeves? I have a very minimal tolerance for incessant whiners and liars!
Biggest turn on? Nothing beats an entertaining conversation.
Embarrassing confession? I’m usually always in the mood to shop because I love clothes!
If you could have one superpower what would it be? I would love to have the ability to make food appear by snapping my fingers.
Hottest outfit a girl can wear? Ladies, simply put, anything formfitting is hot.
Celebrity crush? Adriana Lima
When was your first kiss? Way back in 2006 when I was an innocent high school freshman.
What do girls like best about you? My ability to spontaneously surprise them
Best compliment you’ve received? “You’re real – that’s cool.”
Ideal first date? I imagine my ideal first date being at a street-side café in the city. It would consist of a conversation that gets lost in time and quite possibly a kiss, if she plays her cards right.
Favorite TV. show? Wilfred!
If you were a type of alcohol, what would you be and why? Beer! Drink it quickly or take your time – it’ll get the job done.
Craziest thing a girl has done for you? Listen to me debug a program… it’s not very pretty.
If you were stranded on an island, whom would it be with? My little puggle puppy Toby! Tobias and I love adventures!
I am completely terrified of? Honestly, disappointing my father.
Future plans? Ideally, I see myself graduating and then finding a job that will hopefully pay for a portion, if not all, of grad school; I’d like to at least earn my masters. I contemplated staying in school long enough to get a PHD but I don’t think I’ll pursue that dream anytime soon given our current economic situation. One day, I aspire to work as a software developer on breakthrough projects that advance humanity as a whole; I want to do something cool!
What’s your best feature? My irresistible charm
How do you feel about being this week’s campus cutie? Like a rock star.
