And now it's my turn for the '50s ask! ^^ Johnny B. Goode, La Bamba, Rock Around the Clock, Shout, and That'll Be the Day! ^^
Wheee, thank you! ^^Johnny B. Goode: Optimist or realist?A bit of both. I believe in looking on the bright side and hoping for the best, and turning bad situations for good, but it never hurts to stay grounded and really think things through.La Bamba: What’s a place you visited or want to visit?My family went to Hawai’i. We stayed on Maui and Kauai, and it was the best vacation I’ve ever been on. I’d definitely go back, but I’d want to check out the other islands. I’ve also been to Mexico, that was really awesome.More than anything else I want to visit Italy. I have a very large, very Italian family and I’ve always felt really connected to that side of my ancestry. I just wanna go there and eat everything and soak up all the art. I’d also love to visit Japan, Australia, Ireland, so many places.Rock Around the Clock: Morning person or night owl?More of a morning person, although I definitely have no problem staying up late if I’m doing something important. I guess my deal is I don’t like to be OUT late. ^^Shout: What cause do you believe in standing up for?Ooh… that’s a good one. There are so many, but one that’s especially close to my heart is raising awareness about mental illness. There’s such a stigma about mental illness, which makes it difficult for the people struggling with it to get the treatment they need. Before I was properly diagnosed with OCD I didn’t even understand that’s what was happening to me because of the widespread misconception about what the disease is. I think the biggest thing is we need to stop treating mental illness as an character issue instead of a physical one; these illnesses come with a lot of shame and by encouraging silence on the matter we’re just making it worse. This stuff needs to be talked about.That’ll Be The Day: What’s your hope for a better world?…this may sound incredibly stupid and naive, but I hope for a world that is much kinder, one where differences are accepted even if they’re not always understood. One that’s not so concerned with doing things a certain way, where there isn’t this huge divide between culture and religion and political views. I’m dumb and optimistic and I want to believe there’s a middle ground we can find.Thank you for the asks!
