1. my favorite color is yellow

2. sometimes i feel like a 30 year old stuck at age 20

3. my family is more important to me than everything else

4. i haven't had a best friend since elementary school

5. i wish i had thicker hair

6. i come off as more ambitious than i am in reality

7. i think i like my major

8. i played the flute for 9 years

9. i danced for 13

10. i cannot sleep past 10am, no matter what time i go to bed
