If you could meet anyone, dead or alive, who would it be?

A bird. I think I see the game well, like a bird’s-eye view.

My sister becoming a mother.
If you were the Eighth Dwarf, what would your name be?
Chatty. I will talk to anyone.
What website or app do you wish existed?
An app to answer my texts back. I am really bad with my phone, so it would be helpful to have an app to get back to people quicker.

No, but I have been told I sound like Beyonce.

How long is too long to try and fake out a defender on the crease?
When you dodge hard enough that a slide commits to you, then it is time to move the ball. When you go 1v1 and no one slides, go hard and do what you have to do to beat her!
