Questions to Answer
1. Where is the place that you feel most like yourself?
I don't know that there's really a specific place. I feel the most like myself when I'm surrounded by the people I love, but I also feel the most sane and happy when I'm dancing, so take that as you will.
2. What piece of art (music, painting, book, etc) inspires you the most and why?
Different things inspire me to do different things, but there's this one dance video that always reminds me of why I love dancing and it makes me want to be better. There's a story to it, and even though it's not necessarily a super powerful one, there's a lot of emotion behind it and it's just beautifully done and it really just makes me happy and it makes me want to dance whenever I watch it and yeah

3. Top three quotes to live by?
This is ridiculously hard for me, because I'm obsessed with finding new quotes and I randomly just spout them off, so bear with me.
"You gotta love yourself if you can ever love me" -Lifehouse,Whatever it Takes
"Don't stumble over something behind you" -Donna L. Watkins
"Only you can control your future" -Dr. Seuss
4. Person you feel great jealousy towards and why?
I can't really pinpoint myself being jealous of one specific person, but more that I'm jealous of people that seem to effortlessly achieve things that I've worked so hard for and failed to do, like people that are super confident and can make friends instantaneously or something.
5. What is the best knock knock joke you can think of?
Knock Knock
--Who's there?
Hula
--Hula Who?
*p*
(GET IT, IT'S LIKE HULA HOOP AHAHA I'M HILARIOUS)
6. Ability you wish you had? Magical or otherwise?
I wish that I could be in two places at once-I could be in my room studying while also being in class, or I could be eating while also taking a nap. But I also wish that I could just freeze time, not go back or forward or really change it in any way, but just be able to pause and stop stressing about everything, give myself more time to relax or catch up on things. Basically, I'd like any ability that would allow me to procrastinate AND get all of my work done on time and to the best of my ability.
7. What’s your stripper name?
Candi Apple. And there is a very embarrassing story behind this involving 4 year old Emily and a bathing suit cover up that we will not get in to, but my parents have told me that, if I should ever become a stripper, they would like me to be called Candi Apple.
8. Describe the best birthday of your life? (That wasn’t really a question, but I added a question mark to make it look legit.)
My best birthday was probably my 13th. It was my golden birthday, and Meme and I had a sleepover at the Waterpark of America with just us and our moms (it had just opened, like, a month before, so we thought it was super cool) and we had a shopping spree at MOA and basically it was really fun and chill. Either that or last year, where I just had some of my friends over and we watched movies and ate pizza and just hung out, because I really don't like huge parties as they involve me cleaning a lot.
9. Thing (word, item of clothing, etc) that you wish would come back in style?
FETCH no I'm just kidding. Backstreet Boys, because they were the best and they're not on the radio anymore, and they have some pretty fabulous songs that I adore mostly because of nostalgia but also because they make me dance in my bed, which is awesome. I don't want, like, a come back or anything, I'd just like some classic BSB on the radio every now and again.
10. Craziest person you’ve met?
My French professor last semester would go on these ridiculous tangents in class. Once, we were talking about the subjunctive form, and we were suddenly talking about bloodletting and leeching for, like, a solid 15 minutes. And he would say the weirdest things. He asked us if we'd ever taken speed, or if we'd "ever been somewhere so quiet that you can literally hear the mist hitting the road?" and we were all sitting there just staring at him because, like, what are you even talking about? And he liked to say that people were "dippy" and it was just weird I don't even know.
