You find the end of the rainbow...
It's peace and happiness. Kind of like everything good you've wanted to happen did because you were good to others your whole life. If you weren't good to others then it's like the opposite. No happiness, no peace kind of thing.
A genie grants you three wishes. What do you wish for, and what's the wrost that can happen?
The first thing i'd wish for is un-limited writing/ craft supplies. The worst that can happen is that I would never leave my house because I would be writing and creating new things all the time.
The second thing i'd wish for would be to never have to worry about money. In the context of being able to survive on minimum wage. Not only for myself but for everyone in the world. People who work minimum wage jobs should not be struggling to support their family. The worst that could happen is there would be some sort of disturbance with the government and how the officals wold find other ways to fuck people over.
The third thing I would wish for would be paying off my family's and I's financials for life. Which would include any debt, mortages, houses anything and everything. The worst that would happen would be that we wouldn't appreciate what we have and we wouldn't want to work anymore simply due to the fact that we have no bills to pay for the rest of our lives.
There were pancakes everywhere.
It was the first time anyone allowed little Billy to cook. Bad decision on our part! But hey, atleast they were good pancakes. Took awhile to eat, but it also made the front page of the newspaper ;)
An old couple stops you in the street and says you'd be perfect for the job...
It's a job to be their house keeper. I take their offer and I walk them home. They pay me 1,500$ a week to do everything for them. They passed away two years later. To find out I was the only person they put in their will. They left everything for me, I am forever grateful.
Write about something you hate to love
I hate loving my creative mind. I have so mant different writing and project ideas all the time that by the time I write everything down, I'm sure to have forgotten atleast 3 od the ideas I had in my head. And with all my ideas, I want to do them all at once and end up only doing one. Plus my mind never shuts up making it nearly impossible to fall asleep at night.
Describe a situation where you feel very uncomfortable
When I'm around a group of people who are all getting drunk and high yet I'm sitting here sober. Gives you an out of place kind of feeling where you feel like you don't belong but you're tired of explaining that you went to rehab because you had a drug problem but you're only 18 (16 in rehab) so then you feel even more out of place because of their reaction so it's just easier to get drunk or high at that point.
The cardboard box took up half the room...
I finally got the walrus I've always wanted! Nobody knows yet hehe. I can't wait to tell everyone just so I can prove them wrong because they always said I couldn't get a walrus. You think I would want a normal pet, but what's the fun in that? I'm going to name him Gregoire. That's perfect! Time to set him up in his new home!!!
You find out your neighbor's brick house is actually made of painted books. Which one of them do you want to read, what happens when you take it?
I want to read them all, at the same time the house is so beautiful. I want to get my neighbor famous by his/her wondeful idea. My neighbor picks one book at a time to read, he/she has a replacement book which takes it's place as he/she is reading a book. I ask my neighbor if I can read with him/her and ask where he/she got the amazing idea from. We start hanging out on weekends and share our thoughts about the books we have both read. We talk about building our own library. We start planning out all the details for our library. We make calls, go to meeting, get information. We have been looked into a couple locations on where we want to build our library, but haven't found the perfect place quite yet.

Congratulations! You're a teacher now and can teach any class you want. It can be normal (grammar) or new (advanced magic theory). What would students do in class? What would homework be? What would students be graded on?
It would be a class of creation. You can do what you love. Some people love to write, others like to read. Some like photography. The students would make creations of whatever makes them happy. They would have to show their progress every Friday, even if it's just to me. They will have a big presentation at the end of the year. They will be graded on the progress and have little tests here and there. No judgement or you are kicked out of the class. All individually, no group projects even if you like the same thing.
Congratulations! You've won a trip to Mars. The rocket leaves in a few days; what will you pack? Please keep in mind it might be a long time before you go back home

What's your favorite word? What makes it so special? Is it the sounds, the meaning, the way the letters look on the page?
My favorite word is creativity. It's just simply endless possibilities and it means something different to everyone. It's what you do with it that makes it so special.
Does your house have feelings? Is it grumpy, happy, or somewhere in between? If it could tell a story, what would it tell?
My house certainly has feelings, which house doesn't? My house is very happy because I take care of her every day. She is 43 years old. If she could tell a story it would be about everyone who has ever lived there and her journey along the way.
What's your favorite meal? Who cooks it the best? What does the meal remind you of?
My favorite meal is jumbalia. Bibi from Portage makes it the best (holy shit I miss her). The meal reminds me of paradise because it's Fu**ing delicious and makes me feel like I'm on vacation.

Tell somebody's entire life story in one sentence.
It didn't go as planned but that's okay.
If you could shrink until you were the size of a mouse, where would you go?
I'd go on a roadtrip around the world, go every place I've ever wanted and not have to pay for it. Kinda like a run away. Taking pictures, it would be hard though haha.
