1. If you had a super power what would it be? If I could have any super power, it would definitely be power mimicry, that way I could absorb other powers or skills, because it’s hard to just choose one super power!

2. Who would you want with you if you were stranded on a deserted island? I would have to say I would want Bear Grylls on an island with me, I would have a much higher chance of surviving. 

3. What DVD could you watch over and over? Pitch Perfect is the one movie I could watch over and over and never grow tired of it. It’s so entertaining to me and I could probably quote every line in the movie.

4. If you won $1,000,000, what’s the first thing you’d buy? If I won a million dollars, the very first thing I would buy is a 69 Ford Shelby Mustang GT. It’s my dream car, and I have dreamed of owning one since I was a little girl.

5. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be? California! Specifically the San Diego, or La Jolla, area. I have family from all over Southern Cali, and the scenery there is like nothing else. I can definitely see myself living there in the near future. 

6. What’s the last thing you ate? The last thing I ate was a waffle with bananas and pecans on top, it’s my favorite thing to eat when I’m not training for an mma fight, or competition. 

7. At which store would you like to max-out a credit card? I would max-out every credit card I own at Dick’s Sporting Goods, my wardrobe consists of work-out clothes, and Salt Life shirts, so Dick’s would be the perfect store!

8. Who’s your fave sports team? The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are forever my favorite football team, the whole family loves them. Sometimes you just have to root for the underdog! 

9. If you were a crayon, what color would you be? I’d be either the pink, or light blue crayon, they’re my two favorite colors. 

10. What’s your fave song/artist right now? Right now I have “Sound of Change,” by the Dirty Heads, on repeat on my iPod, it’s from their new album and they’ve done a fantastic job. I always look forward to what they are going to produce next. 

11. What restaurant would you choose for date night? I’m not big on going to restaurants for dates, but I’d have to say any restaurant on the beach, just because it would be fun to surf a little then go get something to eat after. It just sounds like a good time to me! 

12. What’s the farthest you’ve been from home? I would have to say Mexico is the farthest I’ve been from home, I rarely travel out of the country. Mexico is a place I will never forget though, plenty of memories made with family there. 

13. If you could meet anyone, living or dead, who would you choose? If I could meet anyone, it would easily be Helio Gracie. He’s definitely a sport hero, and one of the greatest men who ever lived. I will forever have nothing but respect for him and what he, and others, created for us.
