It's my birthday! I'm turning 23!
Thank you to everyone who follows this blog, even if it's a hate-follow. I hope you all get to pet a happy dog (or other animal if you are allergic) today.
In honour of it being my birthday (and World Mental Health Day), here are some embarassing facts about yours truly:
My hands are so tiny I have to buy childrens' gloves
I actually hate Bohemian Rhapsody
I cannot, nor have I ever, been able to do Magic Eyes
If an economic concept is more complicated than 'how to make change' or 'how to calculate tax', I will probably never be able to grasp it
I cry every time I watch Toy Story 2
I've tried 5 times to read Pride and Prejudice and succeeded exactly 0 of those times
I have exactly no sense of direction
Corollary to the previous fact: I am perpetually frustrated when we study 'giving directions' in language classes (I've done it in French, Japanese, and Mohawk) because I don't even use the cardinal directions in English
I genuinely, unironically enjoy the Super Mario Brothers Movie
I was a horrible weeaboo in my early teens and had aspirations to become a mangaka
I sleep with a security blanket and no less than three stuffed animals on any given night
I fell asleep the first and second times I watched Seven Samurai
I can't dance
I have never beaten a Mario platformer
Despite having worked as a hotel maid and having worked for 4 years in food services, the only substance that makes my stomach turn is ketchup
I used to have a huge crush on Clay Aiken
Despite 9 years of French study and minor familiarity with Welsh, I cannot for the life of me perform an alveolar trill consistently
I've only seen Mean Girls once
I almost had a panic attack in a butterfly house because there were too many butterflies
Despite having done 3 years of band (in which I played trombone), I do not have any 'this one time, at band camp' stories because we literally never did any band camps
I used to find the cover art for Goosebumps books absolutely horrifying
I think pugs are ugly as sin
I did 3 years of Scouts before I realized I absolutely loathe camping
