Favorite candy bar: Snickers, because it's the perfect blend of chocolate, caramel, and peanuts.

Favorite color: Blue or green.

Favorite song right now: I haven't listened to a lot of music lately.

Favorite song of all time: Fishin' in the Dark by Nitty Gritty Dirt Band.

Favorite restaurant: Hemingway's because of their seafood, Cheddars if I'm looking for all-American, Los Portales for Mexican, Zios for Italian, Hong Kong Garden Inn for Chinese, Thai Peppers for Thai, Lamberts if I'm so hungry my stomach might eat itself. It all really depends!

Hobbies: Fishing, because it's relaxing and it's away from the hustle and bustle; I even keep nightcrawlers in my fridge so I can go at the drop of a hat. I also like scrapbooking, but I need a large block of time to get everything out, so I haven't done it as often.

Collecting things: Nothing.

Superpower: Flying or invisibility, because it would provide a different perspective.

Reality show: Bear Grylls.

Favorite character: Matlock, aka Andy Griffith.

First purchase after winning the lottery: The rest of my education (pay off student loans) and then I would buy gifts for my family.

Meeting a celebrity: Jimmy Carter.

Ideal place to go: I'd start with Hawaii and Alaska; I really want to visit all 50 states!

Pets: I have a fish named Blue; he was a gift from NRHH last year, and he is a beautiful color blue, and when he eats well I can say, "You're my boy Blue" (from Old School).

Craziest thing: I went swimming in Lake Michigan when the temperatures were hypothermic.

Favorite campus building: Favorite residence hall is too hard to choose because I've lived in almost all of them and like different qualities about each of them. My favorite academic building would probably be Temple, just because I spent so much time there.

Favorite place visited: Canada!

Proudest accomplishment: One I am looking forward to soon is closing on a house.

Favorite fifth-grade subject: Probably math because they don't teach a lot of science in elementary.

Salad toppings: I enjoy a spinach salad with minimal dressing, raisins and green peppers.

Favorite computer application: PowerPoint, because I learned it so well I use it for things that don't deem it necessary.

Supposed look-alike: Gwyneth Paltrow.
