Pre-pharmacy freshman likes all things that are shiny, wants to be a princess

Wildcat: I'm Claire from the Daily Wildcat and you're on the spot. If you can guess what number I'm thinking of, I'll let you have what's in my hand.

Rodarte: All right. Umm ... 5? 10? 200?

Wildcat: No, sorry. I was thinking of the number cheese. Are you familiar with cheese?

Rodarte: (no response)

Wildcat: Do you want it anyway?

Rodarte: (no response)

Wildcat: It's a shiny new paperclip.

Rodarte: Oooo! Shiny!

Wildcat: It seems that you're rather distracted by it ...

Rodarte: Yes, shiny.

Wildcat: It may be because your IQ just dropped 20 points by being on the spot.

Rodarte: I like shiny.

Wildcat: Right. That seems to be the limit of your vocabulary. Should I just leave you alone with 'the shiny'?

Rodarte: If you want.

Wildcat: There we go ... more words! So what's gonna be the worst thing about your Monday?

Rodarte: Class, because it's just so hard to do after a long weekend. Blah.

Wildcat: What are the odds that you'll actually go tomorrow?

Rodarte: Like, maybe about one class.

Wildcat: Man, what are your professors going to think when they read this?

Rodarte: They'll just be like, 'Oh, yep ... typical.'

Wildcat: Are you pretty much a slacker kinda guy then?

Rodarte: Yeah. I've been to like ... some classes over the last couple of weeks.

Wildcat: Then what do you do with all your spare time?

Rodarte: I dunno ... stuff.

Wildcat: Are you pretty into the video games? If you had to be a character from a video game, who could you see yourself being?

Rodarte: Princess Peach. She has a pink dress.

Wildcat: Peach is pink? That should be confusing for people like you.

Rodarte: It's not shiny.

Wildcat: Then how do you pay attention to it?

Rodarte: The crown. It's kinda shiny enough.
