Hot take?

Movies/music/art don't have to be critically acclaimed to be good, its all about what you enjoy

Study or work abroad for at least 6 months, go on tour with my band, and go on a road trip along the US West Coast with my best friends.

If you could have any superpower, but no one could know you have it, what would you chose?

Shapeshifting! You can basically have any other power you'd like (flight, breathing underwater, super speed etc) and it's the perfect secret superpower

What is an odd talent you have, that you're proud of?

I have a black belt in Taekwondo, which isn't that odd but it always catches people off guard when I mention it

Describe a place you feel happiest and most content.

Playing music on stage with my friends.
