Q7. What do you do when you get a day off?

I like to make over my room. I have not done a makeover for three years, so it would be a refreshing change of pace.

I’d go to a spa and nail salon, and brush up my femininity.

I want to play my favorite video games, and sleep when I feel sleepy. That’s a luxurious use of time to me.
