Origins of your blog's name:
like our most beloved memes, I, too, have been deep fried
My 'I'll always order this' food:
idk about my main but we're ALWAYS getting a side of fries. oolong milk tea also hijacks my decision-making process
👀 - chisme, side-eying other people's bullshit, "not my monkeys," "per my last email"....this baby covers it all
Current comfort movie, show, and book:
Movie: Yi Yi (directed by Edward Yang) makes me melancholy and nostalgic for a life I've never lived
Show: Taskmaster and M*A*S*H :')
Book: I don't think I have a comfort book, in the sense that it's something I return to over and over again. but I love books about families that lets me weep through catharsis, so for that reason I've loved "A Place for Us" by Fatima Farheen Mirza and "Salt Houses" by Hala Alyan
let's do another song by Elisapie - Qimmijuat (Wild Horses)
My current hyperfixation:
BG3 ! am preparing to ramp up my Blue Eye Samurai adoration when the next season finally drops
Oddly specific thing that brings me joy:
What smell makes me happy:
petrichor. cooked white rice. musty ac blasting onto my face in the back of the bus.
Something I loved as a kid and secretly still do:
I was a loud and proud dolphin girl who almost grew up to be a marine biologist 🥲 i love cetaceans so dearly and every time i see one i lose my breath. i saw humpback whales for the first time in 2025 and i still tear up thinking about it
Phone wallpaper right now:
my beloved, sailing a boat
Are you an early bird or a night owl:
i am an early bird forced to live my life in the body of a night owl
If you work, what is your profession and how do you like it:
urban planning - essentially the logistics of running a city, regulating development, and (trying) to shape the future of the urban (and social!) environment. which means i end up talking a lot about public transit, housing, community development, and municipal politics. it is a field with much ascribed to it, and shockingly little influence or might in the US to proactively do good
What's your favourite joke you told recently:
all of my good jokes rely on the performance!! it's not the same over text
