Quest: To become a middle school counselor or a child psychologist. To help as many children as I can. And to grow my hair to hip length.

Favourite colour: Deep Green

Most beloved Tolkien character: Sam, followed up by Faramir… (Book versions of both of them, though the movie Sam wasn't Bad either.)

Worst habit: Chewing my fingernails or sub-vocalizing (talking to myself)

Best habit: Singing to any source of music available

Unlikeliest celebrity crush: I don’t have any, as I think it’s a rather silly idea.

Style guru: Me

Most crucial accessory: My wedding ring, and a hair tie (I love my hair being long, but I can't stand it being down and in the way of everything)

Greatest weakness: Pepsi- I would drink it all day long if I could. Also kryptonite.

Greatest strength: My ability to read people and predict their behavioral patterns (hence why I want to go into psychology.)
