I was tagged by @tanasha91
Rules: Tag 10 of your followers you’d like to get to know better. To be honest, I have no idea who’s still around...so, if you wanna have a go, just go for it! (Please tag me so I realise there are still people out there and that the world hasn’t been taken over by robots or aliens)
Name: Christina (Yip, this is what ‘Chris’ is short for in my case)
Nickname: Depends on who you’re talking to... No two groups of people have ever agreed on one. My main ones are Chris, Chrissy, Teen, and Tina. On here, Sketch or Sketchy.
Gender: Female (much to some people’s surprise. Most of the online tests tell me I’m really a guy and in my early 30s...)
Star sign: Taurus (and proud. And very stubborn.)
Height: 5′ 5.5” – yes, I bother with the half because 5’ 5” people complain I’m taller and 5’ 6” complain I’m shorter. Yes, I end up going through this explanation every time because people apparently find it amusing/weird that I bother with the half.
Hogwarts house: ...I don’t know the answer to this. I really don’t. It always seems to surprise people that I don’t. Then there’s lots of people who tell me that I’m probably Slyerin (can’t spell and I’ve just finished work, so I’m too tired to google).
Favourite animal: Not sure I have an answer... Probably a tiger or a wolf? I’m bad for not picking favourites and just loving predators in general...
Average hours of sleep: 3-6? 3 on a bad night, but 6 on a night when I’ve had about half a week of 3hrs. 8-10 on a night after a week of 3hrs.
Current time: 22:35 GMT (in the UK)
Dog or cat person: Dogs. I have a cat, but I’m actually terrified of them. Yes, that includes mine. I still love him.
Blankets you sleep with: 1 that’s as warm as a single quilt during the winter... I have a brown one with a picture of a kitten on that I’ve had for YEARS that I sometimes grab if I’m cold? Blue often lies on it at the moment when he’s on the stairs waiting for me to come up to bed.
Dream trip: I’m really not a traveller, but I like going to Ireland (Cork, specifically). I’d like to go to India to visit a friend and I’d also like to go to Germany just once, to try out my (very rusty) German and to be able to say I’ve been.
Dream job: Well. I love my job. Yes, I’m “just a waitress”, but I don’t care if people judge me for it. It’s actually really interesting. I wouldn’t mind finding someone to settle down with to start my own little pub that does food. I’m fine with that never happening though.
When did I made my blog: ...I got an email with that on recently...? I think it was about 4 years ago now??
Followers: 339. Wow. When did I get so many??! Are you actually all still active?? (Rich coming from me, I know.)
Why I made my blog: I was actually talked into it...heh. I don’t know if she’s still around or not, but I was talked into it. Basically, this was made so that I could show you guys my artwork...which I have clearly posted so much of. I think I got a little stage fright, to be honest. And I think my stories probably got more notes anyway! I have a proper artist’s desk now? I haven’t actually gotten to use it yet, but it’s too big for my parents’ house to the point that you can’t get alongside it. Writer’s block has seemed pretty permanent lately, but tonight I did get a vague idea for a story in my head...unfortunately I have two major scenes to write (one for Mountains to Dust: Becoming Purav and one for His Brother’s Girlfriend’s Neighbour) and I think that’s what’s causing the block...
I tag: Whomever would like to do this. As I said, I have no idea who is still around, so...have fun?
