Whatâs your favourite movie?
Mommy by Xavier Dolan.
Whatâs a book that you plan on reading?
I recently started to read Necronomicon by H.P Lovecraft after putting it off for a while :) Iâd recommend it if youâre into bleak, surreal horror.Â
Name a book that you read in school that positively shaped you.
After reading Orwellâs 1984, my entire perspective about the world changed. I began to wonder how much âfreedomâ we actually have and how much the state influences our personal lives. I guess thatâs not really something that positively shaped me, haha â but it is the most influential book that Iâve read so far! A book that actually improved my life was The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle. After learning about practicing mindfulness to overcome anxiety and depression I decided to give this book a read and I can genuinely say it helped me get through some tough times.
On a scale of one to ten how excited are you about life right now?
Being a recent graduate, I would say⊠7 or 8? These questions are always hard since you have to quantify a feeling, but I canât say 10 because I feel some anxiety about the future (who doesnât?!). I feel like a 7 (or 8) because there are so many things I want to do, from developing my career to learning a new song on the guitar.
Who should EVERYONE be following right now?
Leandra Medine from Man Repeller. Sheâs hilarious and I love her style.
Whatâs your favorite food?
Anything from street stalls in China. They have so much variety! From rice noodle soups to salads (always ordered with extra pickled radish and cilantro YUMMM) to desserts. Honestly, food Iâve tried from more expensive restaurants donât even come close.
Least favorite food?
Mushrooms. They taste like dirt to me, haha.
Diamonds or pearls?
Pearls!
If you had one superpower, what would it be?
Hands down, teleportation. My desire to travel will forever be satisfied. Also⊠the convenience.
Whatâs the weirdest word in the English language?
Anything with silent letters. Gnat, pneumonia, gnaw, mnemonic. Like, why?
What is the farthest you have been from home?
Last summer I was teaching English in Shenzhen, China. Iâve never been so far from home, by myself, for that long.
What would the title of your autobiography be?
I really couldnât think of anything for this question so I took an online quiz and got The Rest is Still Unwritten. I think thatâs pretty accurate.
Who is your girl crush?
I love Victoria Beckham. Sheâs so elegant, sophisticated, and professional. I donât know how she manages to be a mother to four children and still run a successful fashion label (and still look so great!).
Last photograph you took?
(Actually, my friend Andrea took this) Me, last day of undergrad :)
