Emily Harding: I would love to meet Dolly Parton. I think she’s amazing. I want to go to Dollywood! What’s your favorite song?

Happy, because I’m happy most of the time. If you had to switch places (instruments) in the band, which instrument would you pick?

Mint chocolate chip. It’s my favourite! Team Edward or Team Jacob?
Team Jacob. If you could invent a new subject for school what would it be and who would teach it?
