If you became invisible for 10 minutes RIGHT NOW, what things would you do?

I would sneak into places I’ve always wanted to go to for example maybe like a celebrity’s house.

If you have the power to change one thing in the world, what would it be? Why?

I would fix global warming. I don’t understand those who don’t believe in global warming that has been proven by many scientists and as if its not obvious enough. I would fix global warming because its a huge issue that affects everyone and everything around us.

What would be your ideal way to spend the weekend?

My ideal weekend would be hanging out with friends, doing anything we wanted without worrying about the consequences such as like money or curfew.

If you could only eat one food for the rest of your life, what would it be? Why?

Sandwich? You can put many things in a sandwich so I don’t think I'd get tired of it.

If all jobs had the same pay and hours, what job would you like to have?

I would be a store owner in a store that sells things I like.

What motivates you to wake up early to volunteer for a Charity Run?

When volunteering, there's always a few people who’d come up to me and tell me thank you. Those always make me feel happy even if its just for a while. The feeling of helping someone is really nice.

Which event did you most look forward to? Did it live up to expectations?

I love [Hot] Chocolate Run, it’s one of my favorite events. The last time I did it it was so cold but yes it did live up to my expectations, it was so fun filling up the hot chocolate.

How has your experience been working with HIM?

I haven’t had any bad experiences so far the only thing I don’t really like is having to wake up early.

How has HIM affected your life so far?

Most of the hours I’ve earned is from HIM so HIM is carrying the amount of volunteer hours I need to graduate.
