Mukul Singh’s Questions

1. How did you pick your blog’s name? My online nickname became Lorrie a little over a decade ago while I was  writing fan-fiction under the user-name, Lorriane24. With my first initial being K, I added it to my pen-name as K. Lorrie.  Eventually, I dropped the period and left it as Klorrie. I call this site Klorrie’s Corner because I like to think of it as my own little corner of the internet.
2. What’s your favorite TV show? I don’t watch too much television, but I do enjoy watching old episodes of Frasier, Merlin, Battlestar Galactica, King of the Hill and How I Met Your Mother. More recently, I’ve been hooked on Hazbin Hotel. Animes and documentaries are also all over my watch lists.
3. What are three things you cannot live without? My children, cats, and art
4. Who is your favorite fictional character? L Lawliet from Death Note.
5. Describe yourself in three words. Weird. Introvert. Escapist.
6. What has been your biggest challenge? fighting my own depression and anxiety. Finding my self confidence.
7. If you could go back in time, what year would you travel to? 2001. That was a good year for me.
8. Which animal best defines you and why? A cat. I keep to myself, but I’m loving and loyal to those around me. I also like naps a little too much.
9. If someone made a film about your life, who would you like to play you? A no-name actress.
10. Why did you decide to start blogging?  Too many reasons to name really. I find it relaxing, for one. I like to think that it might help me find people that I can relate to.  That’s difficult for me.
