Once you get this you have to say five things you like about yourself, publicly, and send it to 10 of your followers. SPREAD POSITIVITY! ♡
1. I have an excellent memory for quotes, facts, and ideas. I can quote books from memory after reading them once; I can recite whole paragraphs from my favorite books without particularly trying to memorize anything. When I do try, I end up memorizing the entire first chapter of Eugene Onegin. All 60 stanzas.
2. I’m rather fond of my eye color. They’re the kind of light brown that tips toward hazel, especially when I wear green. I wear green as often as possible.
3. My ethnicity has two hyphens in it. I’m Russian-Jewish-American, and each part of that is very important to who I am. I am different from Russian Jews in other countries, from non-Russian American Jews, and from non-Jewish Russians in the US. It’s a sub-sub-culture that I love being a part of.
4. I’m good at finding exceptions and breaking points. “You said the sky is blue - but really, it’s only blue in the daytime, and only in good weather.” “But if we build the jigglyding sideways, then when the stugglypuff crashes into it, everything will fall apart.”
This is why I’m good at my job. It’s also why some people can’t stand me, but that’s their problem.
5. I’m not afraid of being openly enthusiastic about things I like, and I don’t just mean fannish things. This is probably connected to my general lack of a brain-to-mouth filter, which is a character trait I am less fond of, but let’s look on the bright side for a minute. :)
