- Age: Actual: 20 Mental: 5
- Major: Physiology/Pre-Med
- Hall: McIntyre
- Birthday: February 7th 1988
- Sign: Yield.
- Birthplace, where you grew up: Born in Riverton; never grew
up…
- Favorite memory: When I was but a small sapling entering
high school, I joined the RHS soccer team. I had played soccer
my whole life and I was very excited. Part of the requirements
of playing soccer was wearing “slide shorts” or basically,
spandex shorts. The cheap ones I bought were very long and down
to my knees. The great thing about spandex is that you cannot
feel if you are wearing anything else above them. Another
wonderful rule was that all players must be dressed and on the
field by 3:35pm sharp everyday. However, school would get out at
3:18, leaving little time to even think about getting suited up.
One particular day, I remember being in a hurry. I ran outside,
sat down, and put on my cleats (we weren’t allowed to put our
cleats on inside the building). I remember it being slightly
“brisk” and “fresh” that day. Quickly, after I finished tying my
shoes, I sped away. I made it about 30 yards away from the
building, still noting the unusual breeziness of the afternoon,
when I realized that I had forgotten to put shorts on over my
spandex. Being the frightened young sapling I was, I quickly
turned around to attempt the long journey back to my locker.
Nobody had noticed me yet, and I was thankful. However, on my
way back to the locker room, I caught a glimpse of a girl I had
the largest crush on. She looked at me and said the most
life-changing words I have ever heard: “Nice shorts.” My face
burned intensely as I returned to put on my shorts.
- Favorite animal: Dolphins.
- You suddenly have to flee the country and adopt an alias.
What is it? Rico Suave
- Stupidest thing you’ve ever said out loud:
“So are you two related?” I said.
“Well, kind of, you could say,” replies the man.
Without thinking I declare, “Like father and daughter?”
“No. Like husband and wife.”
“Oh,” I mumbled.
- If you had to marry someone you knew at the age of twelve,
who would it be? Brooke Schierman realistically. In my head, any
of the Baywatch ladies.
- What’s one phrase you absolutely detest? “I don’t know,
like, sometimes when, like, you know, like, people are like,
always saying like, like…”
- What’s something your friends make fun of you for? My
incredible furriness…
- What’s one thing you would say to a celebrity? “You really
named your kid ‘Apple?’”
- What’s your favorite smell? Sagebrush after or while it’s
raining.
- What’s the best dance move? The one I can actually do
without falling…
- What took you forever to learn that all the other kids got
right away? How to be cool… Okay, maybe I’m still learning that…
- What would you name your kids? Armydian Son. Because then I
could call him “Army” for short and he could really be an “army”
of one
- Who’s the best ninja turtle? How could you answer this
question!? I could never choose between my best friends!
Michelangelo is the funniest…
- What’s your favorite perfume/cologne? Girls always smell
good, so whatever that is… Ha ha and I really like Hollister
cologne to wear.
- What’s the worst pet you’ve ever owned? A Siamese cat…
- Do you follow your head or your heart? It depends on the
situation or what is being discerned. “Love looks with the eyes,
not with the mind and therefore is winged cupid painted blind.”
However, the world could use a little more love…
- What did you dream about last night? Sleeping more…
- Paper or plastic? I don’t know, paper beats rock, rock beats
scissors, scissors beat paper… Where does plastic fit in?
- Mountains or ocean? Hmmm… I really don’t like knowing what

What is it?Oscar McShallots

that one.
- If you had to marry someone you knew at the age of twelve,
who would it be?I think this was about when I saw Return of the

right away?Anything craftsy or artistic. I am a terrible drawer.
I found out recently that during parent-teacher conferences my

blind monkey could draw better than me.
- What would you name your kids?Thomas, Mary, and Superjesus

in it. So I get chicken flavored eggs. It just seems so wrong
for some reason.

get out of their locked cage almost every day. Such mischievous
little escape artists. At least that’s what we thought until we
caught my four year old sister freeing them in an oblivious
sense of twisted glee. They would burrow and hide in the couch
and then run like their tails were on fire. Such a pain. You
ever try catching a gerbil?

offering more candy at the time.

German deli with Richard Dawkins, Elmo, and the Pope

slightly better hygiene.
- Who’s your favorite person?Alive: Stephen Colbert Dead:
Aldous Huxley
- How many licks to the center of a tootsie roll pop? Three…
Doesn’t anybody listen to the owl?
