  1. I got whimsy.

    “Infuse your life with joy, lightheartedness, and a little touch of magic. ✨ Be your own witch, your own fairy. Create an atmosphere of playful enchantment wherever you go.”

    • I got cozy, this is correct

      This new year for you should be all about comfort, relaxation, and security. Reach for that soft wrap-around sweater, light a few candles, bake if that’s your thing, and play your Spotify. Have you ever heard of the phrase “pay yourself first”? That means take care of yourself first, too.

  2. Person of mystery! and i’m pleasantly surprised. This quiz was fun and i’m glad The Craft was included bc i was *just* thinking of this movie earlier today. I should watch that again…
