24. what’s something you do to de-stress?
i listen to music! i have approximately 3 million mood playlists (okay, it’s closer to 25ish) so depending on the type of destressing i need to do -- isolate to recover from sensory overload; distract myself from bad news; hype myself up after a bad time -- i’ll settle down in a corner somewhere (bc i like curling up against corners) and put on a mood-specific playlist loud enough to drown out the environment and my thoughts
25. what’s the best personal gift someone could give you (playlist, homemade card, etc.)
to be honest, i’m not a huge gift person? i really love when my friends get me small things that show they thought about me, like a painting with a nice quote or a piece of jewelry that i actually like (the latter is harder than it seems, since i hate most jewelry, so if a friend manages to hit that nail on the head, they earn my undying loyalty). mostly, though, i like being gifted experiences, both big and small! like, concert tickets or being invited to see a movie or being bought ice cream or something.
thank you for sending in this ask :) it’s been a soft few days for me haha
