Meet Jamie of Texas Tech University, who's obsessed with scary movies and would love to go skydiving someday.

Jamie

My friends would be surprised to know that ''I am obsessed with scary movies. It’s kind of a family thing! We all get together and watch all kinds of horror movies, from The Grudge and Paranormal Activity, to one of our all-time favorites, Jeepers Creepers.''

Jamie

''My favorite people to follow on twitter would have to be all of my old friends from high school, because I am able to keep up with them and find out all kinds of things they do day by day.''

Jamie

''I’ve been in cheerleading for 10 years and have coached many young athletes through the years. The coolest people that follow me on Twitter would have to be all of those young girls who I have inspired and become a role model to. I’ve tried to set a good example in the past, and hopefully I still do today, and I hope these young cheerleaders who I have coached will look up to me in a positive way and become such great cheerleaders.''

Jamie

''My celebrity crush would have to be Ryan Reynolds because he is just absolutely beautiful and has such a sexy body to look at. I honestly don’t think it would matter what type of movie he is in, because no matter what it is I would probably watch it hundreds of times. Along from his sexy side, he is such a funny and great actor in every movie I have seen him in.''

Jamie

''If I got the chance to have dinner with three people of my choosing, they would be Blake Shelton, Ryan Reynolds and Carrie Underwood. Blake Shelton would be a lot of fun, and he could definitely sing me a few songs. Ryan Reynolds is just beautiful; I would love to stare at him for a couple of hours, sharing dinner together. Carrie Underwood seems just super sweet and very friendly, and I would love to talk with her about all kinds of things, and listen to her sing to me as well.''

Jamie

My favorite Web Sites and/or Blogs are: ''I love getting all kinds of ideas off of Pinterest. I seriously look up anything and everything on there, from clothes to recipes. There are so many creative and unique tips I have never thought of or heard of before. I’ve been a little obsessed with online shopping lately, thanks to Wanelo. I will spend hours and hours looking at all the trending items that usually lead me to spending money on things I think I must have or just really want.''

Jamie

''My favorite phone app by far would have to be Instagram. I love taking pictures with all of my friends, and getting to edit them how I want, and then being able to post all of them for all my friends to see. I love how Instagram allows you to follow any and everybody you want, from close friends to celebrities. Everybody is always posting tons of pictures everyday, with most of them being in the moment and recent pictures. It almost feels like you’re living vicariously through somebody with all of their photos they post.''

Jamie

If you looked at the ''most played'' songs on my iPod, ''you'd see a variety of different music. My favorite though, and probably most played would be country music. It just puts me in such a good and relaxed mood when I listen to it. My favorite artists and whom I listen to the most are Rascal Flatts, Brad Paisley, Josh Abbott Band and Keith Urban. Other types of music I listen to occasionally would be old school music that I used to listen to growing up. There was a lot of Nsync, Brittany Spears, and Spice Girls.''

Jamie

''If I had to watch a TV show over and over, It would most definitely be Grey’s Anatomy. I have watched this show from the beginning, and have never missed an episode in the nine seasons that it has been on. I love every single character on the show and all the hospital and doctor stories that have happened throughout the years. Of course I love the show for the super hot doctors they have added throughout the seasons, starting from “McDreamy” to “McSteamy” to Dr. Avery. I don’t know what I am going to do when the series is over. I will most definitely be watching these seasons over and over again even when the series has ended.''

Jamie

''My worst habit would have to be cracking my entire body. If it can be popped on my body I will pop it, from the cracking of my neck, all the way to cracking my toes. My mom gets so angry when I do it front of her because it is super loud and I guess quite annoying. Another bad habit I have is biting my nails out of nervousness. I try really hard not to bite them, but for some reason I am always doing it. Sometimes when I get acrylics on my nails, it helps a little and prevents me from biting my nails, cause I don’t want to mess up the pretty nails that I have.''

Jamie

''The talent I would love to have would to be musically talented, and know how to play the guitar. I just love the sound of a guitar being played, and how relaxing and soft the music is. Although learning how to play the guitar would be way to difficult for me to learn, it would be a lot of fun. I wish I had had the chance to learn how to play when I was younger, because everybody loves a person who can play a guitar, or any instrument for that matter.''

Jamie

''The top 3 items on my bucket list would have to be going skydiving, traveling to Rome, and to complete a half marathon. I am very adventurous and have always wanted to go skydiving. I feel like it would be such an adrenaline rush and a great and crazy experience that I could never forget. I have never traveled outside of the United States, but have always wanted to! Rome is my dream place to go, because it is such a beautiful and breathtaking city to visit.''

Jamie

''My favorite professional sports team is the Dallas Mavericks. I’ve been to many games with family and friends, and they are always so enjoyable. Whether the Mavs have a good or bad season, I will always support my hometown. I love watching basketball, especially with people I love and have a good time with.''

Jamie

''The most embarrassing things I have done during a game would probably have to be either holding a sign with the words upside down, doing the wrong motions to cheer, or tripping over my shoe and falling on my behind. Things like these seem to happen to me quite a bit during games, but instead of getting embarrassed I usually just put a big smile on my face and pretend like nothing even happened.''

Jamie

''My one guilty pleasure would have to be cookies and cookie dough. I love all kinds of sweets but this is definitely my weakness. I will eat cookie dough straight from the tub, before I am even able to bake cookies from it. It doesn’t matter what kind of cookie dough it may be, because I love all different flavors, but if I had to pick one it would have to be chocolate chip.''

Jamie

''If I got to choose what my last meal would be, it would have to be Tex Mex for sure. I would have to get a big bowl of chips and queso, with a little bit of salsa mixed in as a starter. My main meal would be beef fajitas cooked in green peppers and sautéed onions, all wrapped in a flour tortilla, with lettuce, sour cream and cheese on top. Of course, I would have refried beans and rice as my side items. To end the meal, my dessert would have to be a slice of cheesecake with strawberries drizzled over top.''
