I was tagged by @mandelene, who is an absolutely wonderful author.
1) If you could go anywhere in the world, where would you go?
Well, I’ve never been outside of the United States, but I’d love to go anywhere in Europe. One place I’d go to would be Potsdam, Germany, because of its background. I have a passion for Prussian history, and Potsdam was the location of Frederick the Great’s summer home.
2) What’s your favorite type of music to listen to?
I don’t have an exact favourite because I listen to all kinds of music, although some genres are more popular than others in my playlist. But, after organizing my playlist by genre, I’ve flung that there are a lot of pop, alternative, and rock songs to compared to other genres.
3) What’s you favorite book of all time?
I think I’ve mentioned this one before, but my favourite book of all time is Code Name Verity by Elizabeth Wein. It’s well-written, she did her research on the topics and regions she chose, and the novel keeps you in suspense until the very end. I read it nearly three years ago, but I still remember the amount of symbolism that kept me so attached to it.
Well, considering that I’m at the beach as I’m writing this, I have to say that I would pick the beach over the mountain. I love listening to the waves and feeling the sun warm my skin while reading or taking a nice walk. There’s just something about it makes me want to stay that way forever.
5) What’s the one thing about yourself that you really love?
This is a tough question for me because I have the unfortunate tendency of being very hard on myself, especially when it comes to my passions. However, because I have to pick one thing that I love about myself, I’d have to say it is my compassionate nature. I’ve been told that I am sensitive and selfless when it comes to the feelings and situations of others and I am glad to hear it. I really love that I enjoy helping others out. Compassion is a much needed quality when there are so many people that are suffering in the world.
6) If you could learn a language overnight, which language would you pick?
French. I already have some experience with it, and after starting to learn three languages in high school, I became attached to French the most. Although, if I were to pick something less mainstream, I’d go with Gaelic because why not.
7) If you could give your past self a piece of advice, what you tell them?
It’s going to be okay. I know that sounds cheesy and cliché, but it’s true. Everything is going to work out. You’ll be able to get out of those houses, and when you do, you will finally be able to step back and work through it. No more bottling up your emotions and allowing your anxieties to cage you. You will be free, just keep surviving a little longer.
And also keep writing everything down, for every word that flows through your finger tips has the capability to break chains. Use that.
8) What’s something you’ve always wanted to do/learn?
Time travel or listen to the stories of seniors. I am a huge history buff, particularly when it comes to the 1910s-1950s, and I’d rather hear about the time first hand than read about it from a book. It’s so much better when you can ask questions instead of questioning the book’s sources.
9) Who would you want to be stranded with on a deserted island?
If I had to choose just one person, then I’d pick my younger brother. I am not a survivalist at all, and I would die without his camping skills. Plus, it would just be better for me if I was working with someone I knew.
If I can pick more than one person then I’d pick Jared Padelecki or Jensen Ackles for strength and fighting skills and my brother for survival skills.

• Cruel and/or petty gossip
11) How long does it take you to get ready in the morning?
It depends. When I know I have nothing important planned for the day, it can take me nearly two hours. When I’m getting up early and I want the maximum amount of sleep possible, then I can get ready in fifteen minutes.
Here are my eleven questions:
1) What is your idea of the perfect weather for a vacation?
2) If you could have a second chance on one significant event in your life, what would it be?
4) How would you describe a sunrise/sunset to a someone who’s never seen one?
5) What’s one thing that you do to de-stress?
6) If you could enter the world of any television show, which show would you pick?
7) What’s your favourite hobby?
8) If life really were a fairytale, would you rather be the hero or the villain?
9) How easily do you fall asleep?
10) What time is the best time for you to get up in the morning?
11) If you had to choose between camping or staying in a hotel, which would you pick?
