MAGGIE ... REVEALED

What's something you're really good at? I try to be a very supportive friend!  
What are you watching on Netflix these days? I watch Disney+ more, especially anything Marvel or Star Wars! 
If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go? Cape Cod! I really want to take a trip there with my family. 
What is your hidden talent?  Not sure I have one! 
Is there any food you don’t eat? I’ve never really tried fish/seafood. 
What makes you laugh? My siblings! They have an incredible sense of humor, we have a lot of inside jokes haha. 
What is something that you’ve always wanted to learn?  When I was younger I thought learning to play the violin would be cool. Also to ride a quad/ATV! 
What odd talent do you have? I can wiggle my ears! 
What can you do better than anyone else? Remain indecisive over simple questions! 
What are you most passionate about? Family! I try to work hard for the family and friends in my life. 
Biggest crisis facing the world: The uncertainty brought on by the pandemic. 
Where do you go when you have to ‘get away’?  Anywhere I can be alone and collect my thoughts. 
What would you do for a living if money was not a factor? I still would want to be an athletic trainer! 
What is something very few people know about you?  My family says I’m funny! My sibling has a list of funny quotes I’ve said haha. 
Pet peeve: Rude people. I wish people had more respect for each other. 
What class did you dread taking but ended up loving? I was nervous to take French Cinema since I don’t speak French, but I really enjoyed it! So much that I took Italian Cinema as a winter course! 
What class did you think you’d love but ended up hating? My FYI 100 class, I wrote a ten-page paper that I had no idea what I was talking about. 
Hardest class ever taken: Chemistry! Also a lot of Math courses!
Something that you may never live to see:  I’m more of a homebody so I’m not sure if I’ll ever travel across the world.
Something that you tried once but would never do again: The Music Fest ride at Quassy Amusement Park. When I was younger my mom had to stop the ride because I was terrified! 
Favorite moment of all time: I just enjoy making memories with my family and friends! 
Most influential person in the world: My parents, they pass on a lot of necessary knowledge! 
Most embarrassing moment: My mother asked if a sweatshirt would look good on her, and I asked if she was planning to wear it in public. Not my best choice of phrasing! 
Amount of weekly allowance you would give to your children: I would start with $5 and then eventually increase it to $10, as long as they complete their chores and behaved well! 
Scariest insect: Centipedes! 
Your most overused phrase: I’m sorry! 
Words to live by: Take it one day at a time. 
Biggest waste of money: Fancy houses or mansions. If I had a lot of money I personally prefer to live in a smaller house and use the money on others!
Best use of money:  Whatever makes me happy…(chocolate!). 
If I could change one thing in the world, it would be: Have everyone realize the importance of an open mind instead of arguing so much all the time. 
Worst thing about COVID:  Everything, it’s been a rough time on almost everyone. 
Best thing about COVID:  Nothing really, but we should try to make the best out of what we are given and able to do.
