Was tagged by @thewhitegoddesshylia so hey! yay fun survey time or something.
1) What language, besides your native language, would you like to be fluent in?
French. I used to read and write in it well, but always struggled with pronunciation. I understand enough Cajun French to be able to tell when the bayou gossip is good, though.
2.) How many pairs of shoes do you currently own?
I couldn’t count these if I tried, so I’ll just say I bought two pairs at the very start of this month (nice rainbow sandals.)
3.) What’s the last compliment you got?
That I’m adorable and utterly loveable (compliments of the bf)
4.) What does your name mean?
My full name is Emily and that apparently means ‘industrious’.
Whatever makes me feel things at a given time. This stretches across all genres.
Favorite?Facebook, which I keep open for work. An instagram. A few sideblogs on here which isn’t exactly what the question asked but oh well, you should go follow @redstickdays anyway
other than my daily existential crisis? nah
Dogs are fun, but I really prefer cats.
11.) Do you have freckles?
Lots of beauty marks and moles, which are like freckles but more assertive with their life choices.
12.) Who is your style crush?
hrm. I like a lot of Beyonce’s style, and I’ve always loved Jennifer Lawrence’s red carpet choices. Some Lena Dunham, actually, because she just kind of wears what she wants.
13.) Favorite candle scent or scent in general?
Fresh Cut Roses by Yankee Candle. Favorite scent in general is definitely lavender and occasionally citrus.
14.) Best thing about each season?
Winter: I think winter is the prettiest season–all the white snow, punctuated by whatever colors, and then all the beautiful stark brown branches. I’ve spent a brief period of time in Maryland-winter right after that big blizzard earlier this year and it had all this beautifully disgusting sludge-snow that was gray and black and smelled like oil and I kind of adored it.
I also love winter in Louisiana, even though I complain about the weather a lot. A few things die but mostly the trees and plants are still green and quivering while kinda just waiting for the temperature to jump up so they can burst into full bloom. It smells like huge pots of seasoned gumbo and old burning iron fireplaces and musty brooms and wet decomposing pine needles and cinnamon from king cakes in January. And then the colors all change to purple/green/gold and is seriously the best thing ever
Fall– pumpkins. my birthday. relief from the misery of summer. Halloween. Mostly Halloween. Best holiday besides Mardi Gras.
spring–spring is miserable in nearly aspect because it thinks it’s summer and involves caterpillars, which are dicks; and they turn into butterflies, which are basically pretty dicks. at least you get flowers i guess
summer–sunsets. they’re brilliantly colored. also snowballs (nectar cream with a shit ton of condensed milk on top being the obvious best flavor.
i think i have a clear preference for seasons here
Being obsessed with myself is totally not weird
16.) Still watch cartoons?
mmhm! Steven Universe, Voltron, various others I don’t feel like listing
17.) Like Wearing slippers?
18.) Shark diving, bungee jumping, or sky diving?
19.) Someone you looked up to when you were little?
20.) Favorite clothing stores?
For nice clothes, I like Dillard’s. I get a decent amount of clothing at Forever 21, Hot Topic, Target, and Goodwill.
21.) Favorite ice cream flavors?
23.) Wardrobe color scheme?
A lot of yellows and pinks, and a decent amount of green and black.
Depends on the mood, but either is 100% okay with me
25.) Favorite clothing item?
jeggings, they’re cute and comfy all at once
beaded curtains, fairy lights, a bed canopy.
27.) Best childhood TV shows?
ugh. so many. Animaniacs and Powerpuff Girls were probably my favorite. Also Pinky and the Brain.
28.) What do you always have on you?
29.) What is the current temp?
88, heat index 99 with 69% humidity.
