What you love about UM:The people and great location to all sorts outdoor activities, like snowboarding and skiing in the winter. And in the summer: the hiking, biking, rock-climbing, flyfishing, kayaking, and all within walking distance from down town.

What is something interesting about yourself: I once got second place in my school geography bee. It was the worst. lost to my little brother in front of my entire school.

What you learned from your first heartbreak: She was my first girlfriend, kind of. We met at summer camp one year. then started to hang out more the second year. then we talked everyday on msn for hours at a time. I thought it was love even though i was in 8th grade. Anyways, one day she was like I have a boyfriend and my heart felt like it exploded. I learned a few things. first of all, long distance relationships are really difficult if you never see each other, and you can’t drive. Two, there are other fish in the sea.

What you look for in a girl: Good sense of humor. Can carry a conversation. Has her own opinions and knows how to respect other peoples. Someone who is hard to catch, yet not impossible.

What is a turn-off for you: Sloppy drunks. i mean everyone has their days, but keep it cool most of the time. Overly opinionated girls. I’ll respect yours, but you gotta do the same.

What is a goal for you: Better grades, clean my room more and try finding a girl that wants to hang out with me.

What are your hopes for the future: Go travel somewhere. If the girl I love is with me, even better.

What is your favorite sport: Snowboarding, soccer, rock-climbing, and rugby, in that order.
