What is the best way to spend a Friday night? Definitely having a wine night with my close friends!
What about a perfect date? Fancy dinner and then a drive-in movie… So cute!
Something most people don’t know about you: I used to have a southern accent, but I got made fun of in middle school for it so I learned to make it go away.
What are you favorite qualities in a guy? They have to be able to make me laugh, that is so important. Motorcycles are a plus. I like smart guys who have a sense of style. Oh and blue eyes make me swoon.
Three words that best describe you? Um… Outgoing, crazy, and awkward!
What is your most annoying pet peeve? When people chew with their mouths open, I hate it so unbelievably much!
Your favorite pick-up line? Hey, Cinderella. Call me midnight ‘cause when I come around I’ll make your dress disappear. If someone used that on me, I would die laughing!
What is your dream job? I would absolutely love to be a Fashion Editor for Italian Vogue.
Biggest fear? Cats and Dolphins, I’m weird, I know.
If you could see any band in concert tonight, who would it be? NSYNC! I still want them to get back together, my life would be complete!
If you could wake up tomorrow morning, hop on a plane, and go wherever, where would you go and why? I would go back home to Georgia to see my family and relax on the beach all day with a margarita in my hand.
