My lovely friend Maggie tagged me with questions so I guess I'm doing this now? However, I'm going to get food first because eating food is important and I came home from work to paint Medicham and now it's approaching 9 and I'm still hungry.

aah yes yummy leftover turkey <3

Anywho, Maggie's questions.

1. What instrument would you love to learn to play?

Ukulele. I really want to have one, and keep telling myself I'll buy one, but I'm slightly terrified it'll be a waste of money and I won't have the patience to learn. I also half feel like I'd be abandoning clarinet and piano. But mainly clarinet since that's the only instrument I'm skilled at.

2. What is the most overrated show on television?

Family Guy, hands down. Cannot abide that show, I don't know why people like it. It's just really not funny to me at all.

3. When was the last time you laughed so hard you couldn’t breathe?

When Game Grumps did their Halloween themed episodes and switched the opening to Dan just yelling BLEEEEEEH I lost it for a solid 5 minutes.

4. Who is your music guilty pleasure? (This can be a band too)

A lot of bands from my middle school/high school years. Which is funny because I never listened to those bands in those years but now that I'm genuinely enjoying Black Parade era MCR or Fall Out Boy, I feel strangely guilty about how much I kinda love it. Also Linkin Park. I'm sorry. I don't even know if I should be sorry but I feel sorry.

5. Who is the most important person in your life who has died?

I have been lucky that super close family members haven't died around me yet, but a month ago Norbert died to cancer. He wasn't biologically related to me, but he basically was the grandfather I never had (my mom's dad died when she was little and my dad's died when I was only 7). He was so incredibly kind and encouraging and humble. Guys. You have NO IDEA how humble he was. I knew him for 7 years and never once was it brought up that he WAS ONE OF THE PEOPLE GETTING THE APOLLO 13 MISSION BACK HOME SAFELY. When asked about it, his response was "I was just doing my job, though. It's what I needed to do." He lived a long life and was at peace with dying, but I'm still really sad about it. I miss him terribly.

6. What is something you have to do but you really wish you didn’t have to?

Dishes. I NEVER REALIZED HOW LUCKY I WAS IN HAVING A DISHWASHER OH MY LORD. My kitchen has now been dubbed "the ecosystem" because I tend to not do my dishes for long enough for things to grow. I am disgusting, I know. I'm sorry. It's a problem. I'M GETTING IT UNDER CONTROL.

Also, if we want to be super real here, I'd rather not die.

7. Do you have a lucky number? WHY is it your lucky number? (You do not have to say what it is).

I am basically the opposite of superstitious. However, I have a strong fondness for the number 5 and am happy whenever it turns up in my life. The reason for that was 5 was the number my portfolio was given when I succeeded in passing sophomore review. Coincidentally, I am not a fan of 81, which was the number I was assigned the year prior.

8. Favorite dance move?

I do not dance. The times when I do dance (generally alcohol is the only way that ever happens) I'm positive I'm horrible at it. But that's okay because Matt is horrible at dancing too so we can just be the super awkward white couple that can't dance at all.

9. Pens or pencils?

::thinks:: pencils are amazing for sketching... but microns are my love I adore them so much but can only use them when doodling with zero stakes. Otherwise I mess up too much.... Gonna go with pencils because I can shade.

10. What animal(s) are you scared of? (There’s gotta be at least one)

MOTHER

FUCKING

SPIDERS

ARE THE WORST

SET THEM ALL ABLAZE

--a (bad) haiku by Jen

11. What profession/career do you think would be the most difficult to do?

 Social worker or alcohol/drug dependency counselor. I just can't imagine dealing with the brokenness of people constantly. Trying so hard to help and make a difference but seeing the same problems keep happening and not actually be able to fix the system... I could not survive doing that and have immense respect for those that try to.

I suppose I need to have questions and tag people now, don't I? Okay, I'm going to do this ONLY BECAUSE I can think of at least 3 people who always want questions so HERE YOU GO, GUYS. ANSWER AWAY.

1. What is your favorite holiday themed movie? It doesn't have to be a winter holiday movie.

2. What is a show that you originally never thought you'd enjoy but ended up liking?

3. What actor/actress would you watch his or her entire filmography for?

4. Do you have any reoccurring dreams or nightmares? Share it if you feel so inclined.

5. What are your thoughts on poetry? Do you have a favorite poet?

6. What is one goal you hope to achieve in your lifetime? It doesn't have to be a "big ultimate dream" goal. For example, I really want a house with a backyard that has a garden shed that I turned into a painting studio. With cats. All of the cats.

7. Name a positive thing that has changed about you in the past couple years. THERE IS ONE, I KNOW THERE IS, DON'T TRY TO DENY IT. EVERYONE GROWS AS PEOPLE AND THERE IS AT LEAST ONE THING THAT YOU'RE HAPPY ABOUT.

8. How do you feel about snow? Are you a fan? Not a fan? Live in a part of the world that never has to deal with snow and ergo has no opinion on snow?

9. Name a ship that you really don't understand or outright hate. Popular, or unpopular. Don't care. There must be one somewhere that you just... do not enjoy at all.

10. What's a book outside your normal genre of choice that you found yourself really enjoying?

11. Is there anything you're currently saving your money towards? What is it?

Hi there sweetie! Haha, at least it’s just 5 this time, I’m already running out of random facts :’)

The first pet I ever had was a bunny who died 2 weeks after I got it because it was sick

Tumblr made me become too invested in fandoms omg

I really try to drink at least 2 liter waters a day

I can drink muchas Tequilas ahaha

I’m the kind of person who’ll ask you to say something in your native language if I don’t speak it

Awe, I am a favorite follower? That’s awesome! Thank you!

Uhmm 10 facts about myself:

I am a culinary student

I read tarot cards 

Fennec Fox is my favorite animal

I have had the same job for 3 years 

Daisies are my favorite flower

I am in a relationship with tumblr user FlyingBlueCaterpillar and we have known each other(in person)since kindergarten. 

I don’t function without coffee

The vehicle I own and operate is a motor scooter. (Kymco People 50)

 I am notorious for starting series’ of books and shows and never finishing them.

In middle school, only one girl got a hand written note from me telling her that I liked her. She told her friend about it and they laughed. Not at my handwriting, but because I ended the note with "Please Love, Steven".

I've have only written in cursive since 1st grade. I forgot how to write in print until 9th grade where I had to re-learn it so my English teacher could read my work without using her magnifying glass.

I went through an emo/punk phase. Dark clothes, long hair, and discovered My Chemical Romance, System of a Down, and Korn.

I ripped my pants in front of the entire cast of a play during rehearsal once. I called my mom but she thought I was joking because everyone laughed in the background.
