"You do not have to adjust your screen! I most def just write like a weirdo...njoy!! xx bb"

What do you actually do all day? I sometimes ask myself the same thing...

Favorite song growing up? I didn't have just one! Different events in life call for different tunes, but I'll give you one that stands out. The song "Ave Maria" was my fav song to watch wrestling to. Bodies flying off ladders and that operatic song seem to fit perfectly."

My biggest secret is... Haha good one...

Why do you live in NYC? Because I was born here, and I don't like to cheat.

Uber, Taxi, Subway or Citi Bike? Subway, unless it's after 2 AM, then taxi. No one wants to take the chance missing their stop on the train because you decide to take an impromptu nap. Trust me, that's no fun!

My motto is... To be honest I haven't made a motto I wanna claim yet...sowee.

My alter ego is... A bunch of people.

The last drink I had was... A short glass of Dominican run, simply over ice, on my friend's mom's farm...shout out to Deb aka Hannah's mom!

My secret crush is... My ex-boyfriend

What was your first job? A book-stacker in the NYU library... New found respect for book-stackers worldwide

If you had one day left to live in NYC what would you do? Eat as many slices from Joe's Pizza as possible while naked hanging in Central Park, in a tree. Or all of that but on a roof.

Coming from? Going to? Youth - a better version of youth.

What is your favorite work of art? Life, it's crazy.

Who should we know? My friend's band ASTR!!
