Do with me.
While I have little to no music experience, I love the idea of being able to DJ. I think it would be super exciting to control the pulse of a party and excite people with my music choices.

Once a week in high school, my friends and I made Nestle Tollhouse Cookies. It became a routine, so much so that I feel I perfected the recipe: set the oven to 350 degrees, cook for 11 minutes, let cool for four minutes, and enjoy.

Watch with me.
Silicon Valley is one of my top TV shows. I watched it over winter break of sophomore year and binged it during my wisdom teeth surgery recovery. I loved the intersecting tech and entrepreneurship themes with the humor of the cast.

Whether cliché or not, Star Wars is one of my favorite movie series. I love Episodes IV - VI as my favorite trilogy, then I - III, and then VII - IX. I think a lot of fans consider that to be their order, too. Nonetheless, I love all the films and the continuation of the storied plot.

While I was abroad last quarter, I started watching Billions with a friend of mine. Similar to Silicon Valley, I love the overlap of a finance-oriented plot with drama and excellent character development. I usually struggle with 60-minute episodes but I had no problem with this show. I am still on Season 5, so please no spoilers!
Listen with me.
Some of my favorite music artists are Tyler, The Creator (left) and Frank Ocean (middle). They are both hip-hop/R&B artists and producers. Formerly, they were group members in Odd Future, a 10-plus person hip-hop collective that has since broken up into solo careers.
|
Another one of my favorite groups is Brockhampton, a boy-band that was formed through an online forum over a shared desire for music careers and seeking belonging. I have seen them in concert four times, though, unfortunately, they are indefinitely separating in the next few months.

Play these with me.
As a long-time basketball player, it only makes sense that I love the NBA. While I missed Chicago's glory days with Michael Jordan, it is once again exciting to root for the re-emerging Bulls squad.

I started playing fantasy football my freshman year and after three seasons, I have gotten hooked. I play in three leagues and even won one of them this year! Fantasy has been a great way to keep up with the NFL and have some friendly competition with my roommates. Click to view my first place team from this season!
