<p>Name/gender: Roshan (everyone calls me Roshi), Male</p>

<p>Hometown: LA and OC, CA (Chino Hills, CA)</p>

<p>High School: Ruben S. Ayala High School</p>

<p>Dorm you want to live in: No clue yet, haven't looked into it. definitely will soon though...</p>

<p>Bringing a car? yes, but unless i really trust you i don't think you'll be driving it.</p>

<p>Major: Econ or Biz Econ with focus in finance</p>

<p>Sports: lots. i did cross country, track, tennis, and soccer in high school. I also like to play basketball. I'm not great at either of em, but i do love to play. also, ultimate frisbee is one of my favorites. i like to keep in shape.</p>

<p>Other things you do: i love to watch movies and tv. not so much the cliche pop culture ones though, i only go for movies with depth. comedies and stand up comedians are also pretty cool. Music is also pretty big part of my day, but again, not the pop culture/rap/gonna bust a cap music. i'm an indie rock kinda guy, but i do enjoy the popular music that gets you moving.</p>

<p>Do you drink? yes, but only socially, at parties or with friends.</p>

<p>Do you party? yeah.</p>

<p>Smoke? PM me.</p>

<p>Religion? agnostic. I see religion as a set of beliefs that provide people with morals and faith. as long as you have morals and know what makes you happy, then why do you need religion? thats just my belief, im very tolerant of others. </p>

<p>Night owl/early bird? I stay up late (11pm - 1am) and wake up early (8-9am)</p>

<p>How important are your grades? very - grad school. plus im in the honors prog.</p>

<p>Mind having people in your room? naw, as long as they respect my stuff and dont trash the place, whats the problem?</p>

<p>Do you have any un-ordinary habits? no</p>

<p>Favorite music : Indie Rock (bloc party, interpol, the strokes, franz ferdinand, the editors, lots of other music that you probly haven't heard of before.)</p>

<p>Outgoing or shy? very outgoing. very open as well. im a pretty funny guy and i love telling stories/making people laugh. my friends have often told me that i can make an ordinary day sound like the most amazing thing ever. i cuss and make vulgar comments, so if your sensitive to that kinda thing, im probly not the roommate for you.</p>

<p>Talkative or quiet? talkative. again, love to talk and meet new people. telling stories and jokes is my thing. </p>

<p>Anything else about yourself? Uhm, I'm a very social and open person, but I also like sticking to myself sometimes. I party, but dont expect me to go out every night theres a party and do something. I'm lazy and love to sit on my ass and do nothing but watch tv or movies, but I also love hanging out and being with people. I consider myself very well rounded - i play sports, i keep in shape, i'm smart but also very social and outgoing. i get along with lots of people, but i want a roommate i can be best friends with.</p>

<p>facebook? Roshan</a> Talwar | Facebook - dont hesitate to send a message or friend request. ask me any question at all, i'll answer anything.</p>
