“I have a secret hunch that I’d die by some freak accident, but I don’t really know.
[If I knew that in one year I would die suddenly, I would] probably stop going to school and stuff and do everything I have ever wanted to do but hadn’t been able to because you only live once.
[If I could change anything about the way I was raised], I would have my parents be more stern and discipline.
I value trust most in a friendship…[Friendship] means always being able to talk to them about anything. It’s about them always being there for them and them always being there for me and stuff like that.
I usually rehearse what I am going to say before making a telephone call when I’m calling to order food cause I’m always scared I’m going to mess up.
A perfect day would be sleeping in, playing with a ton of dogs, going to the beach and having fun, and then having a really nice dinner.
[If I were able to live to the age of 90 and retain either the mind or body of a 30-year-old for the last 60 years of my life], I would want the body because then I could do a ton of stuff that 90 year-olds can’t.
[Love and affection play] a big role in my life, actually, because love is a big deal and it affects me a lot, so I’d say it’s a big deal…[If I were to die this evening with no opportunity to communicate with anyone, I would most regret] not having told someone that I loved them.
[Of all the people in my family, I would find the death of] my sister, Andi, because we’re super close and she’s still young. It’d be really hard to lose her…I’m most grateful for my family because they help me through a lot of things.”
