Home: Roanoke Age: 24 Sign: Gemini Occupation: Financial aid counselor at Hollins University School: She earned her bachelor's in English with a concentration in creative writing and history from Hollins, and her graduate degree in women, gender and writing from the University of Surrey Roehampton in London, England. Nominated by: Co-worker Amy Moore. After nominating Melizza, Amy added "by the way, she does like pina coladas and getting caught in the rain; she's not into yoga, and she has half a brain." About Melizza: An easily amused board game fanatic (her favorites include Cranium and Scene It), Melizza is always hopeful that the next person could be the one. She's spontaneous and energetic; she backpacked across Europe after she finished studies in London.
General interests: Movies are a must; she likes them all, from romance to comedy to horror (especially supernatural horror). Where you're most likely to find her: On the elliptical machine at the downtown YMCA, at Mill Mountain Coffee and Tea or at Awful Arthur's downtown. Melizza's routine when she goes out: Before going out, she likes to listen to music (Sublime and Third Eye Blind are both staples in her night-on-the-town collection), and then she usually makes her public appearance with a Hollins grad crowd. How long she's been single: 1 year Pro of single life: Not having to coordinate your schedule with someone else. C'mon, who isn't tired of the "I've got to ask my boyfriend first" line? Con of single life: Not having a 24-hour kind of friend - someone that you can chat with all night about books, politics and movies.
Whom she'd like to meet: A geeky chic (e.g. kinda trendy and kinda dorky), funny guy with good teeth. Perhaps someone who's into math and science - a guy who can use the side of the brain she can't. How she rates Roanoke's single life on a scale of 1 to 5: 2 Why? It seems like everybody in Roanoke has already met their prospective mate, like all the single people were swallowed up while they were in high school. Best date in Roanoke: A self-proclaimed cheap date, Melizza's into anything historical: a day-trip to Monticello or a lazy afternoon in a history museum. Worst date in Roanoke: She finds the dinner and a movie date cliche and boring, and the live music date baffling - why bother if you can't hear what the other person's saying? How to approach Melizza: She's a simple girl and a simple "Hi" will suffice. She won't bite, she promises.Want to talk to Melizza?
