Mykell Tynes - Top Ten

People's Choice Award

1. What kind of BARBIE do you think you’d be?
Out of all the many food dishes, I would have to say my favorite is pizza. More specifically, I love the taste of a nice mushroom and pepperoni pizza. Pizza has always been a huge part of my life. I can lucidly remember asking my parents for pizza just about every day and of course they would say no. However, if it was up to me, that would always be my first choice for a meal.

2. What’s the weirdest item you keep by your bed?
My interpretation of the “perfect date” must include being in the company of someone I enjoy being around and can have a meaningful conversation with. A trip to the movie theater to watch a marvel movie [I am a HUGE marvel fan; I have all the t-shirts and books] and going for a walk after.

3. What cartoon character do you relate to the most and why?
After a long and hard week of school I like to use my weekends to unwind and get into rich aunty mode! Usually on Saturdays I like to read and make time for my family and friends. Occasionally go out to lunch or watch a movie with my best friends. As sleeping is one of my favorite pastimes, after church on Sunday’s I sleep like it’s nobody’s business to prepare for the week ahead.

4. Would you time travel to the past or future?
The last time I went shopping was with my aunts, at a formal gown store called “Salon Sophie”- absolutely one of the most beautiful and unique stores that I’ve seen. We went searching for a dress that I could have worn to my prom [OMG PROM!!!]. Despite being cute and unique, I couldn’t seem to find anything to wear to prom.

5. How would your parents describe your personality?
I believe that it depends on your personal preference. Some people believe that makeup is unnecessary and that it feeds into society’s idea of what beauty is or what it should be. However, I have found that learning how to do my makeup has taught me a lot about being a young lady and has allowed me to be creative. Makeup gives me an opportunity to experiment with colors and push my boundaries and forces me out of my comfort zone. Get my makeup done really gives me a sense of fierceness If I do say so myself!
