Question 1

I like to try new things on occasion, but generally I am a creature of habit. I have personal routines that I stick to, like having coffee every morning and my winding down routine in the evening where I take a shower, watch Netflix while eating dinner, and brush my teeth before bed. I also tend to eat the same foods and I get upset when things I regularly buy are discontinued.

Question 2

I was a lot more adventurous when I was younger. I traveled more and went to more festivals and events. I attended a lot of concerts, too. Since coronavirus started I haven't really done any of those things. I would like to do these things again some day.

Question 3

I wore black jeans and t-shirts in high school, but it was more of a gothic or alternative style. I really liked wearing black a lot to match my favorite music. Now I just wear regular blue jeans and t-shirts. I don't wear many accessories like I used to.

Question 4

I still like the same music, but my taste has expanded. I listen to a lot of new genres now. I like the same kinds of movies and tv shows. I like the same food, but I have been eating more vegetables, so my health is better than when I was younger.

Question 5

If I had more money and more free time I would really like to travel more and spend more time getting into shape. I want to attend a regular yoga class and do some light weight training, as well as mobility training. It costs a lot to hire a personal trainer, so if I had the money I would really like to do that.

Question 6

I mainly just want to get into better shape and health. I would like to be able to enjoy fashion and wear anything I want. I just don't have the motivation and dedication to stay on track.
