What is your favorite board game? and/or What is your most memorable board game?: My favorite board game as a kid was definitely Candy Land. It might seem like a simple or unexciting choice, but to me, those easy, lighthearted games bring back some of my happiest childhood memories. Playing Candy Land reminds me of a time when life felt carefree and full of imagination. Honestly, I wish I could go back to those days, but reminiscing about them is also a special part of growing up.
Dream Destinations: It would definitely have to be Switzerland! One day, I want to enjoy the breathtaking views & crisp cool air during the winter time! I really want to experience real snow fall if I ever get the chance to visit.
About: To give you a better idea of who I am, I’d say I’m a pretty extroverted person! I love meeting new people and making new friends, but I also value my independence and enjoy taking time for myself. I’m always eager to try new hobbies and never shy away from a challenge. As a friend, I’m someone who will always have your back—if you ever need me, I’ll be right there by your side, cheering you on! 😺
What are you looking for in your future Big/Little?: I hope my Little is someone who’s looking for a mentor—someone they can come to for advice, whether it’s about school or life in general. More importantly, I want us to build a genuine friendship where we can rely on each other through tough times and celebrate our successes together. It would be amazing if my Little could match my energy when I’m feeling goofy, but also know when to lock in and get things done. Overall, I want to be someone they can always count on—and hopefully someone they can look up to.
