Coed of the Week - March 2005: Natalia Ortega

1. What part of a guy do you study first? I always look at his smile first, because I equate that with a good sense of humor and I love it when a guy can make me laugh. I also pay attention to the way he carries himself. If he takes himself too seriously, it's a big turnoff. 2. What's the party ... scene like at your school? There are so many places to go in Miami. Every weekend you hear about a different place, since the South Beach scene is huge. You go to a club or just rent a hotel room and party there. But I have just as much fun spending the night at home with close friends as I do going to a bar. 3. What are some of your favorite things? I'm a huge chocolate fiend, and I love reading a good book and curling up in a huge blue sweater on a comfortable couch in my room. And I absolutely love the beach. During the summer I spend almost every weekend laying out in the sand or going swimming, which is why it's great to live in Miami. Final Exam: What is your special talent? I'm the artsy one in a family filled with doctors or business-oriented people. Since I'm a creative writing major, I obviously write, but I'm also just as passionate about belly dancing. I started taking classes when I was in high school and lately it's become such a huge part of my life. I've danced at parties and at shows and soon I'll be teaching classes.
