Shani Robyn Cox (VC\u201915) was born in St. Croix in the U.S. Virgin Islands many moons ago, and is currently a post-bac for the Office of International Services as the overlord of us poor, poor interns. She was a Japanese major during her time at Vassar College, and thoroughly enjoys learning about Korean culture–names like EXO, Running Man, and G-Dragon bring tears of joy to her eyes. To many a Vassar student, Shani Robyn is a mysterious yet awesome figure–now, it is time to draw back the veil and show you the real Shani Robyn!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Shani, what is your favorite genre of movies?<\/b><\/p>\n
I like action movies a lot. And horror films. BRING ON THE HORROR FILMS!!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Why\u2019d you come to Vassar?<\/b><\/p>\n
It\u2019s in New York. I could take the train to the city (not that I ever go\u2026 *cry*). But also because Vassar was a small school, where I could take Japanese classes and had a form of a Korean course. I wanted to be able to connect with my professors more and I thought I could do that better at a smaller school where the classes wouldn\u2019t overwhelm me in size. And I was right!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Where is your favorite place on Earth?<\/b><\/p>\n
My favorite place on Earth (currently) is Lawrenceville, GA. There\u2019s nothing to do there, unless you have a car. But my dog is there (living with my mom) and she\u2019s the cutest (though rudest) dog ever (!) and I get to use my mom\u2019s car. Everything I need is no more than 30-45 minutes away and the parks are pretty.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Do you have any really interesting hobbies?<\/b><\/p>\n
I have many hobbies, but I\u2019m not too sure if they\u2019re interesting. I\u2019m a hobby colorist, I knit and crochet, I write creative fiction (they\u2019re really bad and will never see the light of day!), and I critically analyze movies (but in a rude heckling way).<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
If you could travel back in time to any period of history, where and when will you go to?<\/b><\/p>\n
I would want to go to Edwardian or Victorian era Britain. Mostly because I like the fashions of that era. OR I would go Edo-period Japan.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Do you have any plans after Vassar?<\/b><\/p>\n
No concrete plans as of yet…<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
And finally, what\u2019s your favorite restaurant in Poughkeepsie?<\/b><\/p>\n
Hmm\u2026 That\u2019s a tough one. I like Babycake\u2019s Goat Cheese and Honey appetizer, Thai Spice\u2019s Malaysian Curry Noodles (w\/ Fried Chicken), BurgerFi\u2019s Conflicted Burger (w\/ A1 sauce), and Billy Bob\u2019s Piggy Mac. But I think the prize for most craved is Sushi Village\u2019s All You Can Eat Sushi!<\/p>\n
