Iralia Georgiou may be straight from Mt. Olympus but she's always ready to give mortals a chance. A hellenic beauty hailing from Bethesda, Iralia got the name of an Olympic gymnast, and the body to match.

With eyes the color of "chestnuts" this five foot six woman loves shopping, especially in Europe. It's a bit east of the Towson Mall, and has great deals too.

Iralia's favorite actor is Ben Affleck, "for obvious reasons." His intellectual panache is quite impressive. That, and he works out.

Which is a good thing, since that is just one prerequisite for Iralia. "I'm always up for a funny guy ... but I'm not gonna lie, I enjoy muscles." That means you have to bench at least four times your weight or take creatine, whichever is easier.

She's also hooked on Halloween. Among her past costumes are a Q-tip, a mushroom and a telephone. On Thursday night she's planning to be a police woman. That's right, handcuffs all the way.

In her spare time Iralia is partying it up at Phi Mu or mentoring freshmen as a student advisor, which begs one question. "Hey baby, can I get credit if we go out?"

You've been to the beach, right? Well so has Matthew. Many, many times. That is because he's from Ocean City, MD, the closest piece of sand and waves to Johns Hopkins.

So we're not suprised to hear that his best date was "walking on the beach at night." Whether he was with someone or not we are not told, but it's safe to assume that a stunning female was by his side at the time. With a resource like that on your backstep, it's hard not to take advantage.

"Funny, easygoing and alive", Matthew is a big fan of Jimmy Eat World and Indiana Jones, er, Harrison Ford. Regardless, he knows how to use a whip so sit back and relax.

If you are lucky enough to go on a date with Matt, be sure to take advantage of him, since he would be willing to "go where ever the girl wanted in the world." From the pyramids to Paris, the choice is yours. Just don't pick PJ's.

The best pick-up line Matt has heard, though we hope has never used, is "Nice shoes, wanna make out?" Though it's hard to imagine an affirmative response, we assume the line has worked on someone, somewhere. Just not on this planet.

When not busy programming, Matt gets involved with Mock Trial and HAC-PAC. After graduation, he plans to "get a job, make money." So don't worry about going homeless or begging on St. Paul because once Matt starts working for... Microsoft, it's gonna be a Bling Bling time. You think we're kidding?

Do you know a stone cold fox? Are you friends with a statuesque beauty? Does the thought of a fellow student make you "giddy?" Then drop us a line at HotatHopkins@jhunewsletter.com.
