I got tagged by Mya to do this challenge so thank you to her and you all should go check out her blog! When I saw this was 73 questions, at first I thought “I’ll pass.” I can be very lazy with answering a lot of questions, but I thought it would be fun and I like getting to know other bloggers better so I’m sure some of you would like to get to know me a little better. With that, there are 73 questions to get to so let’s get started!
