Q: What is your favorite place to go to and why?

A: Other than going to bed to sleep, I enjoy going to Oak Park mall to window shop.

 

Q: What was your most embarrassing moment?

Q: What is one thing no one knows about you?

A: There’s not a lot people don’t know about me since I’m pretty open about my interests and emotions.  Currently, no one probably know what my hair color is, since I’m bald…
