4,11,20,23. Btw I love your blog so much

You are so sweet, hon! I’m so glad you do! <3 

4. do you think its ok to separate the artist from the art?

I certainly think it all depends on the situation. For the most part, yes I do. It’s easy to look back and view art from that perspective and make judgments, but I think it’s also important to realize the time period/moment in which the art is created.

11. what unusual talent do you have?

I don’t think I really have one, unfortunately. I can roll my tongue, but I don’t think that’s necessarily a talent, lol

20. describe your blog in 3-5 words

Rock music is my life

23. if you could break one of your bad habits which would you choose?

For the longest time I had this horrible habit of biting my nails, which I dealt with for years, and it was really, really hard to break free of. I finally have, though! That said, I think that I need to really to vocalize what I’m going through and know when to ask for help - I tend to keep everything inside and push through it all on my own. I’m too hard-headed for my own good sometimes.
