Hello loves! I hope you’re all having a wonderful Thursday. This week has been super busy and with the weird weather in LA, I have been feeling really tired and lazy lately. Not to mention, my puppy has been such a ball of crazies. Shes’s cute and adorable and I love her, but she definitely requires a lot of attention. I honestly cannot wait for this long weekend so I can get some rest and reading time.
Anyway, I thought it would be very productive, blogging-wise, to catch up on some tags that I’ve had in my Draft. I bookmark and start a lot of these, but get distracted and so busy. My blogging to do list is getting super long, so I’ll try to work on them and post at least one every week.
Today, I’ll be doing THE 100 TRUTHS TAG that I saw on berriesandbooksblog weeks ago. I wasn’t tagged, but it looked really fun so I started filling out the answers. I was probably more than halfway done when I had to stop. Don’t remember why or what I did, but it’s been taunting me, so I decided to finally finish and here we are!

Reading romance novels and chocolate chip cookies or anything chocolate

94 If you could have any super power, what would it be?
Having the ability to time travel. I think it’ll be so fun to see the past, the present and the future.
95 If you could change anything about your life what would it be?
To take more risks and be more outgoing.
96 Would you want immortality?
Yes and No. Yes because I’d want to experience everything there is in the world. But No because if I could live forever, then I may never really value the importance of life.
97 If you could interview anyone alive or dead who would you choose?
My dad just so I can have a conversation with him and let him know how much I love him. He passed away a few years ago while he was in the Philippines. Two years had passed since I last saw him and that same year I was actually planning a vacation there.

Worry less about what other people think, be confident, be spontaenous, be kind, and love like there’s no tomorrow.
100 Where would you like to be in five years’ time?
Hopefully married with one kid and still reading/reviewing. It would also be nice if I have a successful job and be my own boss so I can have more time to travel the world.
