If I had to lip sync one song to save my life it would be "Bye, Bye, Bye"-Nsync. Not only is this song amazing, but it features Justin Timberlake and is performed by the best boy band of all time!
When I am not at school or work, my favorite hobbies are currently Pokemon Go is taking up way too much of my time! I love going out for coffee, getting dinner with friends, taking day trips to the beach, and hiking!
If you could eliminate one thing from your daily schedule, what would it be? Imagine how great life would be if sleeping weren’t required! Take all that time that you would be sleeping and pursue your dreams, learn a new hobby, go on a night trip, the possibilities are endless!
Would you rather be a giant rodent or a tiny elephant? I’d rather be a tiny elephant! Everyone would think I’m cute and want to play with me. If I was a giant rodent, people would think I’m gross and disgusting(sorry capybaras).
What is the punchline of your favorite joke or riddle? "And he said, 'That’s why I brought the pears.'"
How may five year olds could you take in a fight? Yes
