One thing you’ll quickly notice about Miss Alex Mardock is that she’ll laugh at rather awkward times. And she won’t tell you what she’s laughing about unless you pester her about it, and this is with good reason. Because usually, what she’s laughing about is pretty dang lame.  And you’ll tell her how lame she is and she will agree with you 100%. But the best part is that Alex is one of the least lame people I know; she’s witty and smart and fun-loving and adventurous and absolutely terrific. Need someone to relax and eat cookie dough with? Not only will Alex join you, she’ll bully you into eating significantly more cookie dough than any human should eat in a single sitting. Need an English-àFrench translator? She’s got you covered. Same goes for if you need a band-aid or medicine for a headache; Alex serves as one of Lovett’s RHA’s, so she’s all about making sure the residents of our fabulous college are healthy and happy. Alex lives for the little things, and she can put a positive spin on just about anything. Seriously, she actually appreciated the irony of the fact that she could not attend the Austin City Limits (ACL) music festival because she tore her Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL). She takes pride in “baffling” the health center by being sick so terribly often. So get ready for an incredible O-Week, because with Alex as your advisor, you’re already set up to have a fantastically lame adventure.
