Conor is studying abroad from Australia this semester and is having the time of his life in America. His friends describe him as an extremely sweet guy with an awesome sense of humor, who is chock-full of swag. Read on to find out more about the (arguably) most lovable Australian on campus this semester!

 

HC: What’s been your most awkward moment at UNCW so far?

CM: The most awkward moment would have to be my second day on campus. I saw a really cute girl walking towards me. As she got closer I hear her say “omg hi.” I reply “hi” back, not knowing she was talking to someone on the phone with headphones in. She then gave me a piercing, judgmental look that shattered my heart into one-million pieces.

 

HC: Describe a perfect date for you.

CM: Generally, something low-key. I enjoy the simple things, like a casual dinner and movie or seeing the array of live music that downtown Wilmington has to offer.

 

HC: What’s your favorite thing about being a student at UNCW?

CM: Definitely the friendly feel of the campus. I’ve never been anywhere where the people are generally so kind and willing to help. It was a very pleasant surprise.

 

HC: Favorite Quote?

CM: “A thing of beauty is a joy forever.” – John Keats

 

HC: Any hobbies?

CM: I play soccer and follow various leagues around the world. I love to read books of all sorts, ranging from Stephen King’s latest horror show, to the unique prose of Romantic era writers, John Keats and Samuel Coleridge.

 

HC: What’s your favorite thing about America so far?

CM: The sheer size of the place. Organizing what long weekend getaways and post-semester trips to embark on, is proving to be impossible. There are just so many activities!

 

HC: If you were a member of N’ SYNC, who would you be?

CM: Are they still a thing? But I would have to say J.T!

 

HC: If you were a Disney Princess, which would you be and why?

CM: Snow White, definitely Snow White. Having 12 tiny little men to accommodate me on a daily basis would be awesome. I’ll just have to make sure I dodge the poison apples.
