Details

What's your favorite movie?

My favorite movie, that has yet to change, is "Erin Brockovich." I think it has an incredibly powerful message, and Julia Roberts' performance is unreal.

What's the coolest thing you've ever done for a guy you liked?

My very first boyfriend asked me to be his girlfriend in high school under a pool table. After he left I wrote something underneath it that just said what I felt about him. I told him he was not allowed to read it. So, for our one year anniversary I made a miniature sized pool table (replica) with what I had written underneath it so he could finally see what it had said.

What do you want to be when you grow up?

I am not exactly sure what I want to do just yet, but I know what I am interested in. I am a Business major, which can be a little intense but is well worth the effort. However, my true passion lies in language. I am fascinated by the different languages and how other people use them. So, I suppose any job that combines those two things would be my ideal job.

Most exciting thing you've done this year?

My favorite moment from this year has to be when my best friends and I all rented a Condo in Aspen, and packed it to the max for the Winter X-Games. It was an absolutely amazing time. We met the athletes, watched the games... it was a blast.

What is your favorite 80's song?

"Your Love," by the Outfield. It is a song everyone seems to know the words to, and always evokes embarrassing dancing and singing. Classic.

Meanest thing you've ever done to someone?

Wow, this question is tough. I can't exactly pinpoint a specific moment where I did something incredibly cruel, because I think we all prefer to forget about those moments. However, I would say that any time that I have ever made any one person feel inadequate or insecure would be the meanest thing I have done, because I think those are the two worst feelings anyone could ever feel about themselves.

What's the most embarrassing song you know all the words to?

To be honest, I know A LOT of embarrassing songs. The one that seems to stun people the most is "Aaron's Party (Come Get It)" by Aaron Carter.

What's the worst movie you ever paid to see in theaters?

Well, there have absolutely been a few, but one comes to mind, despite my love for these actresses, "New York Minute." If you are not familiar, it stars Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen.

What Disney character would you be and why?

Simba! I think Simba embodies everything about me. He is always so curious, a risk taker and independent, although never afraid to show a little emotion. I love his character!

What is your favorite online video?

My favorite online videos to watch, and I must admit, I watch them quite often, are "So You Think You Can Dance" episode clips. I love watching those dancers.
