Looking for love, fellas? Search no more! This week's bachelorette is a sophomore majoring in journalism and design, and she's a total catch. Originally from Mequon, WI (or "The Quon" as the kids like to call it), she's an active member of Phi Mu and magazine club. When she's not drinking coffee or eating pizza, you can find her editing articles as one of our beloved editors at Odyssey. I know you're ready to learn more...so meet Kelly Allen!
1. What makes you qualified as BOTW?
I’ve been single since the 7th grade (if middle school relationships even count), so you could say I’m a pretty seasoned bachelorette. I know how to live that #single life. Also, I got nominated for this, so there’s someone out there who thinks I’m qualified.
2. Describe your love life in five words or less.
In a relationship with coffee.
3. Tell us about your most embarrassing moment.
I can’t narrow it down to most embarrassing, but my most recent embarrassing moment was when I tripped in heels two weekends ago and fell face first to the ground. It was both physically and emotionally painful.
4. Name something most people don’t know about you.
I didn’t start liking pizza until last year. (I know, IDK how I survived either.)
5. What's the best way for a guy to impress you?
Own a dog. Bonus points if you have more than one.
6. Best compliment you've ever received?
A guy slid into my Twitter DMs to compliment my writing, and it was actually the best thing ever. It needs to be shared word-for-word:
7. Name three things on your bucket list:
1. Go to a drive-in movie theater
2. New Year's in New York City
3. Meet/hang out/go shopping with Sarah Jessica Parker (I was in a Bloomingdale’s in NYC once, and she was literally 10 feet away from me, and I had no idea until she was going down an escalator *tears*)
8. It's Friday night, where are we mostly to find you?
Sally's ;) or wherever there's pizza.
9. Biggest pet peeve?
People who agree to do something then don’t follow through. What’s the point of saying you’ll do something if you’re not going to do it?? I really don’t get it. It's nonsense. That and slow walkers. Slow walkers are the worst.
10. What are you most scared of?
Besides death, I guess I would say falling in love then falling out of it.
11. The most attractive quality in a guy is ______________.
Someone who knows what he wants (has goals, ambitions, ideal plans for the future).
12. What are your summer plans?
I'll be in MPLS all summer, so hmu!!
