List your top 5 favorite fruits.
Fruits are delicious and can be taken at any point of the day.
I do have some favorites…
Have you ever been camping?
Well, if I were to remember… I had to or have been camping with my family, no, but I did go on a camp trip to Camp Manitou when I was in high school in the 10th grade.
Camp Manitou, alongside one of the lakes in Ontario, far from the city…
Just to get away, have some fun. Especially on a good high school trip. That created good memories for me. It was the first time I was away from my parents for so long.
I think I went to 4-5days, and that was fun. Well, a tough four days for my parents, especially my dad, because he really missed me.
Well, I did love when we got there. Evertjne was separated into squads. I was on the Pink squad. It was so much fun to do different acting activities such as bobbing for apple, dancing at different random times, arts and crafts, eating good food food, canoeing competition and free falling from a high area which I conquered my fear of heights a bit.
I kind of gave up on the rock climbing midway through because I didn’t have any upper body strength 😂😂
But it is a camping experience that I will always remember.
What’s the most fun way to exercise?
For me, because i’m very introverted, and it’s sometimes really hard.Put my confidence out there and go to a gym.
I like personally home dance workouts. There’s this one woman on Youtube that I’ve been to lately.
She always makes me smile makes me laugh at kne point when I’m dancing with her.
I like it because it’s just so fun, silly, and just put out of my comfort zone. Her name on Youtube is GrowithJo.
With dance workouts, you feel more comfortable in your own space, just jamming out and moving your body. In some way to bring a sort of excitement and happiness to help start your day out
What book could you read over and over again?
Well, I’m just starting to read this book, but I think it’s a book that I can read over and over again because the lessons from this book are a good implementation to taking back your own personal growth.As good reminders of how a good self vibe can lead to the greatness of a good life.
It is called Good Vibes, Good Life by Vex King
I think my favorite chapters are learning about self-love and if there’s a lot of advice in the book that shows a simple solution that most people forget in the busyness of everyday life.
One of my favorite passages is just about how expressing gratitude throughout the day, even at the start of your morning, can really brighten up your vibe.
Also, technology he has kind of taken over, and we kind of lost the personal touch of connections that are important to upkeep.
Technology is a tool, not a substitute for living – Vex King
What are your morning rituals? What does the first hour of your day look like?
Usually every morning ritual I do…I give gratitude and remember to thank God every time I wake up.
I pray be thankful for the day no matter what mood I am in. Be grateful that I wake up and open my eyes and then try to do a nice morning routine.
The first hour of my day would just start with me trying to get out of bed. Waking up, give thanks with a quiet, silent, and nice prayer opening my curtains.
Next going to brush my teeth regular habits, but i’ve added a good habit of drinking a glass of water and eating a small morning.
The snack is to get a little bit energized for my morning and the water to help with digestion.
Well, also, during the first hour, I practice writing down affirmations on my fridge’s whiteboard really helps me. Get a bit more positive and reassurance for my self-confidence.
Plus, it’s a little fun thing that I would put, like if there’s anything in news, news or sports or entertainment, then I just put it on the whiteboard. And I just put like a daily song that brings a smile to my face.
Can be any song english foreign, indian. Especially I like putting anime ones with the openings that always get me in a good mood.
What’s a secret skill or ability you have or wish you had?
I think one of the secret skills that I wish I had early on is having the skills of observation and deduction.
I’m training myself one step at a time…
But I am a good fan of mystery and am trying to read more of the genre…
Also, I want to read more about the world best detective, Sherlock Homes
I have always been a good observer since I have been so quiet and recognize different never been able to act on them accurately
It’s always been a skill that I have admired and been impressed with, especially when I see people show that skills on TV, “Colin Cloud” on AGT, made me more interested 👌
You’re going on a cross-country trip. Airplane, train, bus, car, or bike?
I have been on a bus, plane, car and bike… well, motorcycle to call, but it still counts…right?
However, I have never been on a train.
I would love to take a nice calm train ride in the countryside to take in the beautiful nature and sights.
It’s environmentally friendly and comfortable rather than most planes and bus, it gives extra leg room.
Also, I would experience a new way of travel to help broaden my horizons.
Which animal would you compare yourself to and why?
Well, it’s just confusing, because I don’t know if I would compare myself to any animal.
So I guessed maybe a rabbit. 🐇
Well, because they’re soft, they’re cuddly. They have energy, they love, eating vegetables and they’re calm.
Plus, I was born in the year of the rabbit, and some of the qualities that I’ve seen in the calendar are similar to myself.
I’m usually calm and intuitive. I love being kind and helpful to people even though I have a quiet voice.
Describe your most ideal day from beginning to end.
My most ideal day would start with a nice sunny sunrise. Waking up to unvehicle site around my community.
I would get up and get ready to do a good morning routine. I would go for a 5 to t10 minute walk.Just to breathe in some nice air and stretch my legs.
Then I’ll get back and make a nice breakfast that fills my stomach. Probably, one of my favorite new breakfasts. One that I tried out, that turned into an immediate favorite, which would be avocado toast.
I was starting my work day a little bit later and trying to do productive work while standing up and sitting and going out a little bit.
In the evening, I would go out to an event. Spend some time with some friends and just relax and make a good memory to tell later.
Probably a spa day or a nice concert, hiking, painting, dancing, visiting a new place or even something new to learn….
One ideal is that each day, I would try an activity or habit to get out of my comfort zone.
Come back, get some green tea….take a warm shower, light some candles.
Make my room a nice atmosphere for going to sleep. Even watching some good anime or TV show and reading a nice book before I fully relax and drift off.
What books do you want to read?
I recently started more reading books again about last year….
Because it really helped expand my mind and make sure that we can learn something new and grow each day.
We’re not limited by anything.
Many books can help with my mindset
And I am, but still feeling stuck? Reading books kind of really helped clear my mind a bit.
I want to read a lot of books just to grow in many different areas that i’m focused on right now.
But if I were to give a top five list I would like to read at the moment, it would be…
A journey of grace, grit, and starting again.
Who you are? You are probably a nature lover, so why are you waiting? Just come and visit.
