Why did you want to be a staff writer for The Rotunda?

"Dude Where's my Car." Worst thing written/filmed/made ever.

What is the funniest word?

Spork.

What is the best invention ever?

Cell phone, because I can upset my mother by going over on minutes and text messaging every month.

Who is the most famous person you have ever met?

I haven't really met anyone famous but I saw from across the street all the girls of "Sex and the City" filming an episode while I was in New York.

If you could live anywhere in the world, where would in NOT be?

Paris. I heard it's really dirty and disgusting.

What's the longest you could survive in the wilderness with just a knife and a roll of duct tape?

One hour. I have no survival skills. I die from screaming too much.

When I'm going to get married and to whom.

What would you do with your last $5?

Go to Ukrops and buy two packs of vanilla cupcakes with butter cream icing.

Baby cows. Cute animal, or tasty meal?

Cute animal! They're so adorable with their little black noses!

Tell me one thing about yourself that you don't want readers to know?

I'm scared of the dark, and I sleep with a night light.
