Tonight’s UFC 206 is the event sandwiched in between the coronation of Conor McGregor at Madison Square Garden at UFC 205 and the return of Ronda Rousey at UFC 207. So while it doesn’t quite have the buzz of those two pay-per-views, it certainly has an intriguing card in its own right and it should be great entertainment for fight fans around the world.

After the UFC Light Heavyweight Championship bout between champion Daniel Cormier and Anthony Johnson was scrapped due to Cormier suffering an injury, a featherweight fight between Max Holloway and Anthony Pettis was elevated to main event status.

In order to increase interest for the fight, it was announced the winner would be crowned the interim Featherweight Champion after the UFC had McGregor relinquish the title. But at the weigh-ins, Pettis came in at 148 lbs, three pounds over the featherweight limit of 145 lbs. for a championship fight. Therefore only Holloway will be eligible to win the interim title.

UFC 206 will emanate from the AirCanada Centre in Toronto, with the undercard beginning at 6:30 p.m. EST on UFC Fight Pass and moving over to Fox Sports 1 at 8 p.m. The main card will then start at 10 p.m. on pay-per-view.

I’ll be providing live updates and results all night, so be sure to check back throughout the night to find out what goes down.

WATCH: Walter White Is Named Head Of The DEA On ‘SNL’, And He Promises To “Make America Cook Again”

With the hysteria over the election receding into the rear-view mirror, Saturday Night Live didn’t have as much political fodder to work with this week as it has most weeks this season. And without Alec Baldwin there to portray the president-elect, it looked like we were in for a forgettable cold open.

But then we got the wonderful news that Trump had chosen Walter White as the head of the DEA, and we were graced with an unexpected appearance from Heisenberg himself.

While some of the inside jokes may have gone over the heads of people who didn’t watch Breaking Bad, for the rest of us it was pure bliss. And seriously, if you didn’t watch Breaking Bad what the hell are you doing with your life? It was a brilliant way to both lampoon Trump’s questionable cabinet picks and remind everyone of Cranston’s comic chops ahead of the release of Why Him?.

It’s time to make America cook again, indeed.

The Giants Have Accused The Steelers Of Deflating Footballs, Giving Football Fans A Horrific Déjà Vu

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before. An NFL team has filed a complaint to the NFL on suspicions that their opponent who defeated them deflated footballs.

According to Fox’s Jay Glazer, the nightmare that was DeflateGate might be getting a sequel. The New York Giants have accused the Pittsburgh Steelers of possibly deflating footballs during Pittsburgh’s victory over the G-Men last Sunday.

 

I’ve been a Giants fan my entire life, but even I can see that from a neutral perspective they’ve been the absolute worst this season. From Odell’s diva antics to Josh Brown to now this ordeal, everything about Big Blue in 2016 has been insufferable.

It’s hilarious though that the NFL just hasn’t responded to the Giants’ query yet. I’d love to have seen Roger Goodell’s face when the league first heard the Giants’ claim. He’s definitely still deliberating just to make sure he’s not getting punk’d.

Uber’s New Guidelines Aim To Clamp Down On Drunk Passengers, Flirting Between Drivers And Riders

A change to Uber’s guidelines means you could have your account terminated if you misbehave.

Uber has for the first time released a set of written “Community Guidelines”. “It’s OK to chat with other people in the car,” the ridesharing company wrote. “But please don’t comment on someone’s appearance or ask whether they are single. And don’t touch or flirt with other people in the car.’

The company also wrote, “As a reminder, Uber has a no sex rule. That’s no sexual conduct between drivers and riders, no matter what.”

Is this really happening enough that they specifically need to mention it? I know this is twisted, but it just makes me jealous that there are apparently people out there getting it in with their Uber drivers. I’m glad Uber is putting a stop to it though. Because if I’m not getting laid then nobody should be.

Another no-no mentioned in Uber’s guidelines is “vomiting due to excessive alcohol consumption.” So you should definitely take an Uber home if you’re drunk, but maybe not if you’re too turnt.

Overall, I think it’s a good idea to have policies encouraging civility, although it’s unclear how exactly these guidelines will be enforced. If you’re going to act like a jackass while riding in an Uber then you don’t deserve that privilege.

The Fast and Furious family released the trailer first trailer for The Fate and The Furious in style, renting out Times Square. And from the looks of the trailer, the eighth movie in the series will provide the familiar high-octane entertainment but with a twist.

After the heart-wrenching departure of the late Paul Walker’s character Brian O’Conner in Fast and the Furious 7, it was unclear where the series would go. But from the looks of it, Dom is going to turn his back on the family. But as it also makes clear, the Vin Diesel character is doing so under the control of nefarious outside forces. Charlize Theron joins the cast, and it looks like she will be the main villain who is manipulating Dom.

Aside from Walker, the entire cast from the previous movie returns, including Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson reprising his role as Luke Dobbs. The Rock made headlines by calling out one of his fellow actors, widely believed to be Vin Diesel, in an Instagram post while the movie was shooting in August. But it was later reported that the beef was largely a publicity stunt, though it’s still unclear exactly how sincere he was being.

You can watch the much-anticipated trailer below.

No movie franchise knows exactly what its fans want more then The Fast and the Furious, and they’ve really perfected the formula since The Rock joined the cast in the fifth movie. This looks like another winner, and it should be a treat for anyone who like fast cars, badass dudes and crazy stunts- which is just about everybody.

You can catch The Fate of the Furious in theaters on April 14, 2017.

WATCH: Adam “Pacman” Jones Repeatedly Calls Terrelle Pryor ‘Garbage’ In Remarkable Tirade

Adam Jones made a foray into the wacky world of professional wrestling while he was suspended for the entire 2007 NFL season due to off-the-field transgressions. And from the looks of it the Bengals cornerback must have learned how to cut an absolutely devastating wrestling promo.

Terrelle Pryor was the target of his fury after Cincinnati’s win today. Pryor has been the sole bright bright spot during Cleveland’s winless season, but today Jones and his fellow defensive backs held the former Ohio State quarterback to just one reception for 3 yards. Despite his lack of production, or maybe because of it, Pryor was evidently running his mouth enough to provoke this vicious yet hysterical reaction from the artist formerly known as “Pacman”.

The best part is obviously when he checks the garbage can for Pryor. Just grade-A sh*t talking from the veteran cornerback.

Apparently this was just the very end of the interview. Here’s the extended transcript, courtesy of Cincinatti.com. As you’ll see, Jones really went in.

“It’s just the principle of you’ve been playing for so long and you’ve put in your work and you’ve young guys talking (expletive) who haven’t done (expletive),” Jones began.

“We took it personal. I know me and Dre did, personally, for a guy to personally go to my coordinator (Paul Guenther) and tell me he’s going to get me cut after the game.

“I have the utmost respect for (Browns head coach) Hue (Jackson), but certain (expletive) I don’t tolerate from young punks, really, basically. A (expletive) suburb kid that wants to act like he’s the toughest thing in the world, because he done caught a couple of balls.

“He’s just arrogant. You could see it with his teammates. Did you all not see him, when he was pushing and cussing at RGIII on the field? So I pay attention to everything. I told RGIII how the (expletive) you going to throw him the ball when he’s talking to you like that. You’re the (expletive) quarterback.

“It’s just little things.

“Ya’ll know who I am. I don’t really don’t get into personal battles because I’ve got respect for a lot of people, but certain situations it just demands me to speak.

“Truthfully I could give two (expletive) about Terrelle Pryor and his career and whatever he done.”

“He told my coordinator that he’s going to cut me after the game,” Jones added. “For a guy that’s been a slouch around the league at quarterback, played decent this year for his first year at wide receiver. I’m saying all this facade, all the fake hard (expletive) that he plays out on the field. That ain’t Terrelle. I checked his background. He’s a suburbs kid from Pittsburgh. Terrelle Pryor was right there the whole game, right there in the garbage can. Next question.”

For someone who was expected to be out of the league once he got suspended for that whole 2007 season, it really is a marvel that Adam Jones is still locking down receivers in 2016. God bless him.

Kylie Bunbury: 22 Hottest Photos Of The Star From The FOX Show ‘Pitch’

Kylie Bunbury stars in the new primetime series Pitch on FOX. After you’re done with this article, you’ll know who the true fox is. I’ll give you a hint, it’s Kylie, who lends her talents to the television screen as Genevieve “Ginny” Baker, the first female to play in Major League Baseball. And her beauty only matches this extraordinary achievement.

Ms. Bunbury was born in Canada but spent most of her childhood in Europe. She lived in England for two years and later lived on the island of Madeira in Portugal for seven years. She then moved to the Prior Lake, Minnesota, where she began modeling and acting. Kylie landed her first role on Days Of Our Lives for one episode. The Canadian-born starlet then moved onto film, grabbing roles for movies like Prom and The Sitter. Bunbury also has a spot on the CBS series Under the Dome, which is inspired by a Stephen King novel (and perhaps The Simpsons Movie, to some extent). Now, she’s the star of the show of Pitch, about a rookie player for the San Diego Padres who makes history as the first female to enter the major leagues. But she’ll really throw you a curve-ball with some of these red hot photos that she’s uploaded to Instagram. This 27-year-old stunner is surely turning up the heat!

Just take a look for yourself at Kylie Bunbury in all her glory…

Three University of Louisville students, two of which are football players, were shot near campus during a party celebrating their teammate’s Heisman Trophy win yesterday morning. Junior linebacker James Hearns and sophomore linebacker Henry Famurewa, along with another University of Louisville student, are recovering from their injuries, according to police.

Via Courier-Journal:

A 19-year-old student who attends Jefferson Community Technical College said he witnessed the shooting, which took place at The Retreat, an off-campus apartment complex close to U of L’s Belknap campus. He said he was at a party with U of L athletes who were celebrating Jackson’s Heisman Trophy.

Police said the shooting occurred around 2 a.m. Sunday in the 1000 block of Manor Park Drive, but alerts from the University of Louisville warning students to “avoid the area” did not go out until more than two hours later, according to multiple sources who shared the university’s correspondence.

When officers arrived, they located a male and female that had been shot. Both were taken to University Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. A third victim arrived a short time later at Jewish Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries from a gunshot wound.

Police determined that all three injuries occurred at the same location. The two male victims are 23 and 20 years old, and the female victim is 20, according to police.

According to Police Chief Steve Conrad, nearly 500 people have been shot in Louisville through November, which is an all-time record for the city. The LMPD Major Crimes Unit is investigating. There are no suspects at this time.

Here’s Your First Look At The (Hopefully Improved) Second Half Of ‘The Walking Dead’ Season 7

Hey, so let’s just start this post with two words: spoiler alert. Is that clear? Okay, cool, let’s rock. Rick Grimes finally seems like he’s starting to fight back after Negan killed two more Alexandrians. It looks like Rick Grimes will begin to mount his revenge against Neegan and the Saviors during the second half of season seven.

In the preview for the second eight episodes of the season, Rick and the gang make their first visit to see Ezekiel and the Kingdom, Daryl kicks the shit out of someone, and there’s some car chase action. Hopefully, the second half of the seventh season is an improvement from the first, as The Walking Dead saw their ratings fall to its lowest point since the third season.

The mid-season premiere of The Walking Dead airs Sunday, February 12 at 9:00 P.M. EST.

Mr. Granbomba Slap Lawsuit

As if you didn’t hate YouTube pranksters enough, this news about YouTuber “Mr. Granbomba” is going to make you despise them even more.

Long story short, Mr. Granbomba comes up with the dumbest prank ever, upsets the person he’s trying to prank, and gets slapped into the next world by said person. Rather than taking his lickings like a champion and returning home with something worth watching, Mr. Granbomba heads to the hospital, gets documentation of his injuries, and is now suing the person.

You can watch the video below:

What Happened?

Although I don’t speak Spanish, there are thankfully some people on the internet who can. Here’s a transcript of what was said:

Prankster: would you be so kind as to tell me how to get to the shopping area?

Blurred face: What shopping area?

prankster: You know, the area with a lot of stores and things of that sort

Blurred face: (gives directions)

Prankster: Give me the directions clearly you anchovy face. To begin with, where are we right now?

Blurred face: Anchovy face? I should hit you right now.

Prankster: Its a hidden camera prank!

Blurred face: Where’s the camera?

Prankster: Its just a prank.

Blurred face: Where’s the camera?

Prankster: Its just a school project to see how people would react.

Blurred face: I should hit you, clown

Prankster: I’m sorry for bothering you. Its just a school project

Blurred face: (something along the lines of): If I wasn’t working right now, I would beat your ass

Prankster: Alright, sorry to bother you.

Blurred face: I should f*cking beat your ass

Prankster: Bro. I’m sorry. It was a joke

Blurred face: I sh*t on my whore mother (Spanish expression expressing frustration)

Prankster: It was just a joke. I wasn’t being seri-

Blurred face: (SLAP) What are you on about?

Prankster: It was a joke. It was a joke.

Blurred face: Get out of here.

Most of the time, crappy YouTubers would be ecstatic that they got slapped or hit by the people they were trying to prank because that’s a video everyone wants to see. It’s called justice. But nope, Mr. Granbomba can’t take his licks and has to go crying to the hospital after getting slapped once in the face. Granted, that was a hell of a slap, but it’s not like he fell to the ground or even wobbled a bit. Who goes to the hospital for a slap?

I think my favorite thing about this whack story is the evidence he shows as damage:

mr-granbomba-slap-injury

Like, bro, he did not slap the acne onto you. You were born with that. Give me a break.

A couple of days ago, we let you know that Esquire Latino was cooking up some magic in their 2017 Swimsuit Edition.

Matthew-Stafford-in-the-fourth-quarter-this-season-levels of clutch. Bud is probably the only weed slang term that provided him with a reasonable out, and he sure as hell capitalized on it. After dealing with a bunch of boneheaded pot dealers in my day, this guy throughly impresses me.


WATCH: John Cena And ‘SNL’ Troll University of Alabama With “Science Presentation” Sketch

John Cena University of Alabama Football SNl

John Cena hosted Saturday Night Live this past weekend, and as expected, he did a pretty great job. Personally I think that the real life “Karate Kid” sketch was the highlight of the show, but a close second was their “University of Alabama Science Presentation” sketch. It pretty much nails how we think academics are applied to Crimson Tide football players.

“Bananas nailed to a piece of plywood?” Sounds like an A+ presentation to me.

The only thing that’s left out is a few dozen “Roll Tides,” but we can forgive and forget.

How Long Until The Dallas Cowboys Panic & Put Tony Romo Back In?

It’s inevitable. In fact, it always was. The warning signs were there all along, and in last night’s game against the New York Giants, the first domino in the path to Tony Romo’s return fell. Quarterback Dak Prescott, who has led Dallas to 11-straight wins, had his worst game of the season, completing 17/37 passes for 165 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions. Naturally, the buzz around a Tony Romo return began to pick up steam. Should the Cowboys lose this week to the red-hot Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the shouts to re-insert Romo will quickly become deafening. Here’s why.


2014 Stats

Tony Romo has been injured for a while now, this much we know. He missed 2015 with a collarbone injury and this season with a back injury. But in 2014, when Romo was playing behind the offensive line that’s currently paving the way for Ezekiel Elliot, the Cowboys went 12-4, and Romo had one of his best individual seasons. During that season, Romo completed 69.9% of his passes (the highest completion percentage of his career) for 3,705 yards, 34 touchdowns, and only nine interceptions (the least of his career). Point being is that when playing for the currently constructed Cowboys, Romo has been money. People are holding his previous decade of play against him, which is fair, but forget how great he truly was when he was a part of this team.

Let us not forget that behind this offensive line, Romo had Dallas one bad referee decision away (Google ‘Dez Bryant non-catch’) from playing in the NFC Championship.


December Record

Fun fact: Tony Romo is more successful in the month of December than any quarterback in the history of the league. That’s right: In December, when the wins count most, Romo is at this best. From 2009-2014, Tony Romo has thrown 34 touchdown passes and only eight interceptions in 16 December games. That’s just five touchdowns less than Aaron Rodgers, who has 39 TDs and eight INTs over the same span. Over those 16 games, Romo threw for 4,342 yards on 359-for-549 passing (65.4%) for a passer rating of 104.1 in December from 2009-2013. That’s good enough for the highest December QB rating in NFL history. Tony Romo balls in December, and so far, Dak has not, throwing for less than 200 yards in three straight games. Should the Cowboys lose another December game, look for them to bring out their December ace.


Tony Romo Is A Better Quarterback (Right Now)

For right now, when healthy, Tony Romo is a better NFL quarterback than Dak Prescott. Now, while Prescott is safer, and maybe a better fit for this Cowboys team, Romo is still the superior player. While Prescott’s steady hand may have been the Cowboys’ key to success during the regular season, the playoffs are an entirely different beast. Where as the regular season is a marathon, the playoffs are a sprint, and the Cowboys may need Romo and his gunslinging ways to get them over the hump in a winner-take-all game. Should the Cowboys find themselves in a matchup with the Falcons or Packers, they will not be able to play the time-of-possession game they’ve been using all season, and will have to keep pace with the likes of Aaron Rodgers and Matty Ryan. Tony Romo can do that. Dak Prescott, at this time, cannot.


Dez Bryant

Dez Bryant is a top five NFL receiver. In no particular order, you’ve got Julio Jones, Antonio Brown, A.J. Green, Odell Beckham Jr, and Dez Bryant. And in fact, of all those names, Dez may be the best in the air, as well as the strongest wide receiver in the league.

Dez Bryant is in his sixth year in the NFL, and he has never, NEVER looked as irrelevant as he did Sunday night against the Giants, finishing with one catch for 10 yards that he actually fumbled away. That’s right, he fumbled his only reception of the night. In December, and in the playoffs, you need your best players to take over, and the Cowboys will go absolutely nowhere without production from Dez Bryant. Throw in the fact that they may face a high-powered team like the Falcons or Packers, and you have a situation where you need Dez to go off.

Now, while it’s clear Dak knows how to win games, it has yet to be seen whether he can win a shootout. And you can bet your ass that Dallas is going to find themselves involved in a shootout with that defense of theirs. Say what you will about Tony Romo, but when he’s in the game, you know Dez Bryant is gonna ball.


Jerry Jones

Where it all begins and ends: Jerry Jones. It’s no secret that Jerry Jones as an affection for Tony Romo, however, he took those feelings to new heights last week when he said, despite the fact that Dak Prescott and the Cowboys were in the midst of an 11-game-winning streak, that Tony will get “his opportunity to get us a Super Bowl.”

“I think Romo is going to get his opportunity,” Jones said. “I don’t want it to happen. But I think he may get his opportunity to get us a Super Bowl. While that’s a mixed bag when I think about it — that means you don’t have Dak out there — but it means, what a story, one for the ages, if he’d step in there and this year help us win a Super Bowl on the field with his skill. That can happen here. We’re not talking about a bus driver out there. We’re talking about a guy who can go out there and move our team.”

At the end of the day, Jerry Jones is a showman. More than winning football games, he wants to put on a show. And as preposterous as it sounds, the man is right: Tony Romo leading the Cowboys to a Super Bowl would be one hell of a story. And now that we know Jerry Jones wants it, it’s only a matter of time until it happens.

Where Did Zoey Deutch Come From? Because We Are In Love

I don’t know if you’ve seen the trailers, but James Franco and Bryan Cranston have a new movie coming out called Why Him?, and let me be the first to say that it looks pretty awful. However, that being said, there does appear to be one shining light, one saving grace in the film, and that’s lead actress Zoey Deutch, who will be playing Franco’s love interest and Cranston’s daughter.

Deutch began her career in 2010 on the Disney Channel original series The Suite Life On Deck. In 2014, Deutch starred as Rosemarie Hathaway in Vampire Academy (2014), based on the book series written by Richelle Mead. In January 2014, it was announced that she would star opposite Tyson Ritter in Randall Miller’s Midnight Rider, a biopic of Gregg Allman.

In 2017, Deutch will have starring roles in Before I Fall and Rebel In The Rye. At only 22 years old, Deutch is one of the hottest young actresses in Hollywood, and is certainly worth keeping an eye on. I know I will.

Iowa State sounds pretty lit, eh? This past weekend, the Office of Student Conduct Disciplinary Information at Iowa State University announced that four different fraternities were facing disciplinary actions for violating various student conduct codes.

via Iowa State Daily:

Four fraternities are currently facing  disciplinary action due to violations of the student code of conduct, according to a review of the Office of Student Conduct Disciplinary Information.

Delta Tau Delta, Adelante, Pi Kappa Alpha and Kappa Sigma broke the student code of conduct, resulting in several investigations and consequences varying from probation to comprehensive reviews.

The four fraternities got in trouble for everything from hazing to alcohol and drugs to theft. We broke down each code that was violated, fraternity by fraternity:

Delta Tau Delta

Charged with a violation of code section 4.2.11, or hazing, on Nov. 22, according to the Office of Student Conduct. The chapter is under conduct probation until May 7, 2017, and cannot recruit during the spring semester or initiate any member until the probation period is completed.

Delta Tau Delta has to contribute a chapter member/new chapter member education plan by April 3, 2017. They also must give “documentation supporting a values-based and academic-oriented community building program that supported the growth, development and learning of its new members during and prior to initiation week submitted by April 3, 2017.”

The Iowa State Daily has reached out to Delta Tau Delta and has not received a response.

Adelante

Found in violation of code section 4.2.2, misuse of alcoholic beverages and controlled substances; 4.2.26, violation of conditions of recognitions; and 4.2.31, violation of any local, state or federal law, as of Nov. 21.

The chapter is under conduct probation and social host probation until May 7, 2017. It also is required to have a comprehensive review of risk management policies and procedures by March 31, 2017.

Kappa Sigma

Found in violation of code section 4.2.2, misuse of alcoholic beverages and controlled substances; 4.2.12, disruption of rights; 4.2.19, theft or damage to property or services; and 4.2.26, violation of conditions of recognitions. The charges were filed by Sept. 7.

The chapter came to an agreed resolution to be under conduct probation and social host probation through Jan. 9, 2017. It also has to hand in a comprehensive review of risk management policies and procedures by Dec. 17.

Pi Kappa Alpha

Found in violation code section 4.2.2, misuse of alcoholic beverages and controlled substances, twice; 4.2.26, violation of conditions of recognitions, twice; and 4.2.31, violation of any local, state or federal law, on Sept. 27.

The fraternity deferred its probation, causing its conduct probation to begin on Jan. 9, 2017 and last until Aug. 21, 2017. Its social host probation will continue through Aug. 21, 2017, and social host restrictions until Jan. 8, 2018.

Pi Kappa Alpha has to complete comprehensive review of risk management policies and procedures and have a review of their new member program by March 1, 2017.

It will convert to a dry, or alcohol free, facility until Aug. 21, 2017. It also created a membership review that ensured “current members are committed to the mission and values of Pi Kappa Alpha.

 The chapter looked into establishing a live-in graduate academic adviser who would communicate the progress of the fraternity by May 2017. Also by May, the chapter needs to create a “comprehensive plan to help [the] chapter change to be more aligned with long-term objectives and communicate progress.”

Cara DeLuca Opens Up About Her Struggle With ADHD & How She Was Able To Cope With It & Kick Ass At UCONN

Cara DeLuca

From an outsider’s perspective, Cara DeLuca makes living the dream look easy. The 20-year-old junior at the University of Connecticut is majoring in Spanish and Communications in hopes of one day working for the Peace Corps. She’s also a sister in Alpha Chi Omega, was blessed with drop-dead good looks, and boasts thousands of followers on Instagram. Yet school didn’t always come easy for the Miss COED 2017 semifinalist.

Cara is open about the fact that she struggles with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), a neurodevelopmental disorder usually diagnosed in childhood that often lasts into adulthood. For those who have it, focusing on a task can be difficult, and for Cara in particular, her grades sometimes suffered. However, things changed when she got to UCONN. She learned how to cope with it, and now her grades are “better than ever.” Cara’s story is a prime example of why you should never judge a book by its cover, and she’s an inspiration to others struggling with ADHD.

If you could travel anywhere in the world for Spring Break, where would you go?

If I could travel anywhere for Spring break, I would go to Bali, Indonesia. I have seen pictures online and some of my friends have gone, and it looks so peaceful and beautiful. I would love to go relax on the beach and go on a yoga retreat.

Who do you look up to the most and why?

I look up to my mother the most for many reasons. She is the most caring person I know and would do anything for anyone. She is selfless, very kind and is always going out of her way to help other people. She is also incredibly smart and is a professor here at UCONN, so I get to see her every now and then, which is awesome. She is my best friend because I can tell her anything and I know she will not judge me. She has seen my at my worst and at my best and will always love me unconditionally. I am very grateful to have such a strong bond with my mother because I know many other people who do not have great relationships with their mother, and I feel bad because I could not live without mine. She is the woman and mother that I aspire to be one day. She is successful, beautiful, kind, and smart. She is the full package.

Name one thing on your bucket list.

To meet Beyonce.

Cliché, but where do you see yourself in five years? Ready, set, go!

In five years, I see myself traveling and working abroad in Europe or working in marketing for a hip company in New York City.

What’s your biggest accomplishment thus far? 

My greatest accomplishment thus far is succeeding in my academics despite my ADHD. Throughout my life, I have always struggled concentrating and staying organized because of my ADHD, and sometimes it has impacted my academics. However, over the past few years at UCONN I have learned how to cope with it and my grades are better than ever. I was able to overcome the obstacles that my ADHD gave me, and I see that as a huge accomplishment.
