What does wealth mean to you?

Wealth has little value to me. For example, if you have a job that makes $100,000 a year, but you’re completely miserable, that’s not how you should be living life. If you make $30,000 a year and your job is exactly what you want, then that’s what really matters. Materialistic things like wealth and designer brands have no significance to me.

Are there any other languages you wish you could speak?

I wish I could speak German, Chinese, and Italian. I know some Spanish, but I want to learn more. (:

When are you at your best?

When am I at my best?

I’m at my best when I’m in my hometown of Brookings, sitting by the windowsill, reading a book and drinking some tea or coffee.

Drifting off…

A.P classes really drain my emotions and ambitions out. The things I do for college.

I will always adore this song. Hopefully one day, my future boyfriend will adore it, too.
