Have you ever had surgery? What for?
I’ve had surgery twice one for a different finger. The fingers have been on a different hand. The first time I broke my finger playing soccer, the second time I broke it doing Tough Mudder.
You don’t realize how important a body part is much less a finger until you lose the ability to use it. For both times the post-surgery recovery was 6 weeks. I was in a hard cast for the first 2 weeks and then a soft one for the rest of the recovery.
What are your daily habits?
Organize my day and set my priorities. I make sure to pray and read a bit of my Bible before going to the gym for my daily workout. After, what I do depends on what needs to be accomplished for that day.
In the midst of daily living, I try to keep a bunch of streaks in the apps I have. One of which is the app through I’m making this post, Jetpack. The others are:
Which food, when you eat it, instantly transports you to childhood?
I remember my first impressions of lasagna. My dad would make his version, which was so good! And I would have the Stouffers dish. Those were the premier versions of this awesome dish.
All lasagnas that I have must be compared to those standards!
What’s your favorite thing about yourself?
I don’t like to promote myself, but I will say that it’s very easy to smile and laugh. I remember back in first grade, my friend Anthony used to say that all it took for me to laugh was “two fingers and a piece of cheese”. That in itself was a hilarious line that I just laughed heartily. And I was only 6 years old then.
How do you practice self-care?
I had answered this question previously but I would like to amend my answer. I don’t necessarily explicitly call it “self-care”. Self-care is all the things that I do keep my sanity. I meditate, journal, and read especially my Bible. This all to for mental and spiritual self-care. For my body self-care is just practicing good hygiene: brushing my teeth, flossing, gargling, showering every day, etc.
Who is your favorite historical figure?
Outside of Jesus, let’s put down Donald Trump. A billionaire real estate mogul becomes president of the United States.
What countries do you want to visit?
Let’s write this list down:
Post Script: I know that these are continents. I will add specific countries soon.
What’s the oldest thing you own that you still use daily?
I still use my Dopp kit that I got from the last decade for when I take a shower. It’s been pretty useful so far, and holds a ton of bathroom items.
Describe your dream chocolate bar.
I feel like Willy Wonka. Basically it would have a creamy caramel filling with peanuts or peanut butter. Plus the coating would be white chocolate.
This would be the best chocolate bar ever!
