College Connection is a dating website for college and university students. Read
Sophie’s profile on the website.
My name’s Sophie and I’m 26 years old. I’m from London and I’m single. I’m
studying Film Studies at York University – it’s really interesting. My dad is an actor
and my mum is a film director so I grew up watching movies. I want to work in
cinema when I leave university – as a film director, too.
I have a nice group of friends at university. My best friend Anna is studying here too.
We all get on well. We go out to the cinema together every Friday night and on
Saturdays we like going out to restaurants or music bars. I also love cooking for my
friends. Most of my friends love shopping for clothes and jewellery, but I prefer
making my own. It’s cheaper and more fun.
I don’t like playing sports very much, but I like watching football on TV. My favourite
team is Chelsea. I’m into yoga at the moment and I try to eat lots of healthy food.
I’m quite a sociable person. My friends say I’m very talkative! I’ve got long dark hair
and green eyes, and I’m quite tall. I’m looking for a partner who is fun, sociable, and
kind. I’d like to meet someone who has a good sense of humour and who is tall, too!
Would you like to go on a date with me? If so, I’m waiting for your reply!
