Adam Roberts, history sophomore from Vidalia, throws up the L and the A while standing next to a drawing of Louisiana to represent that he loves this state.

Adam Roberts, sophomore from Vidalia, came to Nicholls to study history “because if it wasn’t for history, I wouldn’t have a major.”

Roberts doesn’t particularly like school, but he enjoys coming to Nicholls.

“I don’t like going to classes, but Nicholls itself is not bad,” he said.

When he is not at school, Roberts works at a local restaurant. When he is not at work, Roberts enjoys spending time with friends and just sitting at his house listening to music.

Roberts’s reason behind coming to Nicholls was so that he could be closer to his friends.

“It was either here or Louisiana Tech, and I chose here because my friends come here,” Roberts said.          

Q: What is your favorite thing about Nicholls?

A: The red heads and the soccer team.

Q: Do you have any nicknames?

A: Let’s see, the main one of course is wack daddy, stinky pinky, thumb master, a-rob. Another one is Lil’ hearing problem which is self-explanatory.

Q: What is your favorite kind of sandwich?

A: A turkey sandwich with some Doritos.

Q: What is your favorite song right now?

A: Wreckage by Parkway Drive. When that guitar starts, mmm.

Q: What kind of shoe would you wear for the rest of your life?

A:  (Points to his shoe) Nike Airs, bap bap!

Q: If the zombie apocalypse begins tomorrow, what would your weapon of choice be?

A:  I don’t know if I’d go with a chainsaw because the blood would get all up in your face, and that’s what gets you to be a zombie. I would pick a sawed-off shotgun, like in the movie, “Zombieland.” It’s clean and effortless.

Q: What is your favorite movie of all time?

A: Friday because Chris Tucker and Ice Cube make it so funny, it’s hilarious. I remember watching it as a teen, and I’ve liked it ever since. I saw it, and I was just like, “Smokey!”

Q: What is your favorite restaurant to eat at?

A: El Ranchero in Vidalia. They have good food, and I eat there a lot with my friends.

Q: If you could see anyone live, on stage, who would it be?

A: The Devil Wears Prada. They are just ballin’. They are gangster. They are hardcore, and it was something the last time I went see them.

Q: If you could learn how to play any instrument in the world, what would it be?

A:  It might have to be drums because I like to move around a bit (waves his arms around like he’s playing air drums).

Q: If you could fight any celebrity, who would it be?

A: I think it might be Justin Bieber, I’m sick of that Bieber Fever bull.

Q: What is your favorite sport to play, and which one to watch?

A: I love football, pro football or college football. You can take me to watch a peewee game and I’d be all about it.

Q: You see a wallet on the street containing $2,000 in cash, what do you do?

A: You have got to find out who it belongs to. I’d just feel too bad taking somebody’s money.

Q: Blonde or Brunette?

A: Neither, red heads all day everyday.

Q: What is your favorite thing about Louisiana?

A: I got a couple of reasons. We got “Swamp People,” the dirty rapper representing in Vidalia, Cookie Monsta and Young Skittle and we got Boosie in Baton Rouge. I love the rappers, I love the crawfish and I love the Cajuns down here. I was born and raised in it, and I’m gonna die in it, bap bap! I can’t leave the boot.
