16. What is the funniest joke you've ever heard? - I've heard lots but can't think of a single one right this very moment.

52. Was this summer a good one? How warm was it where you live? - Summer in the Philippines was scorching! Literally scorching.

59. Tell us the worst thing about your current or most recent S/O. - Oh man. I could go on and on but then you people might think I'm just being bitter because the relationship didn't work out. One thing I can say, I realized that he was such a compulsive liar who wasn't man enough to own up to his mistakes.

6. How many people do you trust with everything? - This may sound odd but I don't trust anybody with everything. It's too risky. I think you can never share everything about you 100% to anyone other than yourself. Heck, even I don't trust myself sometimes.
