When I am not studying or playing my sport, in my spare time I like to?
Go on trip to get ice cream at a PEI Dairy Bars, play spikeball, hang-out with friends, sometimes read and bike as well.

If you could trade lives with anyone for a day, who would it be and why?
Eric Gillis, so I could know what goes through his mind on a daily basis

Visit Newfoundland and all other Canadian provinces I haven't seen
