I love watching TV and talking to my friends. Some of my favorite TV shows are The Office, Friends, and Parks & Recreation. My friends make me laugh the most. My favorite colors are red and black. The two pet peeves of mine are loud eaters and slow internet. I would really like to visit Paris someday.
