1. My middle name is Paige.

4. I have a fear of possums.  They’re pretty much large rats and that terrifies me (shivers).
5. I’m probably one of the worst people at answering my phone. It’s not you; it’s me (but really though).

Mariah’s Questions

If you could be any fictional character, who would you choose?

 If I could be any fictional character I would be Carrie Bradshaw.  I know it might be a cliché answer, but Carrie is fabulous. She has a rent-controlled apartment in New York City, a closet filled with clothes and shoes that any fashionista would kill for, an established career, and one of the best TV relationships with her husband Mr. Big. Her life seems pretty perfect to me.

What is the last movie/song/book that made you tear up?

The last thing that made me tear up was YouTube videos. I decided the other day to look up videos of soldiers coming come to their families and engagement proposals.  Every time I watch these types of videos, I get so happy for them I start to tear up. Which leads to an embarrassing ugly Kim Kardashian type of cry.  I know, I know it’s embarrassing, but I’m a softie when it comes to those types of videos. Especially the soldiers coming home to their love ones videos. If you ever YouTube those videos, prepare yourself because you will probably tear up.

What is your Favorite quote?

I don’t have a favorite quote of all time, but lately I’ve liked “ Normality is a paved road. It’s comfortable to walk, but no flowers grow on it.” – Vincent van Gogh.  Also, I like “ The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away.” –William Shakespeare

Do you ever get mistaken as a certain celebrity?

I personally don’t think I look like any certain celebrity. I’ve gotten Taissa Farmiga from American Horror Story and Jennifer Love Hewitt. There are some similarities, but for the most part I don’t see it.

Would you rather read from a paperback or on a Kindle/Nook?

I would rather read from a paperback. I’m kind of old fashioned like that. There is something about having a physical copy of the book that you can hold and turn the next page that I actually enjoy.  I also just really enjoy looking around at bookstores.

Are you more of an outdoors or an indoors person?

I think I’m more of an outdoors person. Some of my favorite things to do are to go outside and explore new territory that I’ve never seen before. I love hiking, kayaking, playing sports, traveling, and also spending time with my friend’s outdoors. At the same time, I also love the indoors. Sometimes, I like nothing more than sitting on my bed and binge watch TV episodes/movies while I’m also on my laptop.

If you could go back in time, which decade would you visit?

Hands down the 60’s. There are so many things about the 60’s that I love. The fashion was inspiring; I absolutely adore hippie style and mod style. There are so many fashion icons for the 60’s that I can’t even count.  There are tons of bands/ artists that I love from that era. I wish I could have a time machine just to go back and attend those concerts, especially Woodstock.  Politically, people were standing up for what they believed in and voicing their opinions. I think it was by far one of the most interesting decades. I am definitely an inner 60’s child at heart.

Where is your dream vacation destination?

I would love to travel across Europe or go to an exotic beach like Bora Bora.

What is one life long goal that you have?

My life long goal is to be happy and enjoy life. No matter what I end up doing as a career, no matter who I may end up with, or where I may be living, I hope I’m happy and enjoying the life I am living.

Peanut butter or Nutella?

I am definitely  #teampeanutbutter all the way. If a food item/candy has peanut butter in it, I will probably enjoy it. I am one of those people who will eat peanut butter out of the jar as a snack. The obsession is going strong.

If you could switch places for someone for a day, who would it be?

Um I’m not really sure on this one. I guess I would switch places with the President of the United States. It would be interesting to see what’s it’s like to be one of the most powerful people in the country.
