My MP3 player is filled with songs from:

• Nelly Furtado.
• Jay-Z.
• Everyone from Norah Jones to the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
• Snow Patrol.
• Dierks Bentley.

To me, college is all about:

• Laying the groundwork for my career and/or grad school.
• Partying with my new friends.
• Leaving behind my hometown for the big city.
• Spending time with teammates and perfecting my game.
• Finding myself.

In my spare time, I plan to:

• Explore all Richmond has to offer, from the restaurants to the history to the trails.
• Hit the gym.
• Make connections in the local art and music scenes.
• Study, join the SGA, volunteer and get an internship.
• Pledge a fraternity or sorority.

My favorite eatery at VCU will probably be:

• Everywhere. With as many calories as I burn, I can eat whatever I want.
• The local vegetarian hotspot.
• Whatever’s open until 2 a.m.
• The Student Commons so I can meet new people.
• The coffee shop so I can grab a bite during team meetings.

I’ll use my dorm room most for:

• Sleeping.
• Working on my next big piece.
• Planning my next trip to the beach or mountains. I’ve got to take in this scenery while I can!
• Studying and perfecting my résumé.
• Watching ESPN.

My favorite reality show is:

• “The Amazing Race.”
• I don’t like reality shows. I’d rather have the adventure myself!
• “Two-a-days.”
• Anything on Bravo.
• “American Idol.”

The one thing I can’t live without is my:

• Bike.
• Energy drink.
• Cell phone.
• Day planner.
• Quiet time.

I’ll show my VCU school spirit by:

• Participating in all the Homecoming activities.
• Entering my work into the Wearable Art fashion show.
• Signing up for the Outdoor Adventure Program’s annual Spring Break trip.
• Cheering on the Rams.
• Running for SGA president.

My favorite way to study is:

• Late into the night. It usually makes for an interesting morning!
• With a study group – the more the merrier!
• On my own – I don’t need any distractions.
• While I’m on a treadmill at the gym.
• Gradually. Cramming is so unnecessary.

If I could pick one quality in my new roommate, it would be:

• Energetic.
• Spontaneous.
• Outgoing.
• Organized.
• Intelligent.
