Oh, oh, oh!!! I'll go!!

1) A dragon!! A small one though. Like a firelizard from McCaffery's Pern. In actual existence, a snow leopard. And most realistically, I've always wanted a sugar glider or chincilla.

2) What I'm doing right now: school! I've always loved school.

3) umm.... technically The Book for the IP. Lol last book enjoyed was Sith Lords though

4) SW Rebels (I'm ignoring the random episodes of Bones and Castle that have been on TV since I wasn't actively watching them)

5) Currently making a program cover for my university's upcoming spring symphony. Before that I did a magazine mock up.

6) Last night was pizza rolls

7) urgh.... can't remember this one since I almost always sing out loud on the way to and from school. :/
