11 QUESTIONS:
1. How did you come to live where you live now?
after my grandma passed away, my grandpa lived at my dad's for a while until they found a place for him in Paris and two years later my grandpa passed away when we finalized the contract to own the place. We kept it a year with all of my grandpa's stuff until I asked to clean it up and make it my own living space which is how I ended up with a flat in Paris.
2. I you could live anywhere with no regard to financial barriers, where would you live?
I think if money wasn't a problem, I'd like to move around a bit, see more of Europe and stay a few weeks every time every where idk I feel like it's dangerous for me to stay in one place for a while so to keep me on my toes I'd have to keep moving.
3. What’s your routine in the shower?
put on music and sing it's so ridiculous my mom used to tell me to shut up because she couldn't hear the tv
4. What was the last rant you went on about?
I don't really get rant-y about stuff I feel like I'm never cultured enough somehow and I'd rather hear what people with a better understanding of the situation have to say
5. Name one (or two or three or whatever) song that is very important to you and say why. If it’s too personal, just the song is fine!
1. pioneers, by bloc party, I kept listening to it when lyrics like 'if it can be broken then it can be fixed' meant I could get through whatever the fuck I was being a sap about
2. anything by bobby lapointe, I grew up listening to it thanks to my parents and I still know most of the words to most of the songs (which are ridiculously clever)
6. What’s your favorite language?
I love french and I wish I could make better use of it (yes, I realize that I AM french it's just okay)
7. Invent a course that should be mandatory for graduation.
oh my god art history should be mandatory and I mean all the arts. I'm thinking about making a timeline for myself with artists and musicians and film makers because I feel like that's very important.
8. What’s your favorite outfit to wear?
t-shirts
9. Do you have a phrase that you used ironically and got stuck using in potentially un-ironic ways? What is it?
all the dumb internet speak basically all of it
10. Favorite drink? Alcoholic, otherwise, or both.
I can actually get drunk on beer so that.
11. Tell me a story. (Mandatory. May post a link to your favorite short story for half credit.)
I'm in Portugal rn and this morning the people I'm staying with had a few students over from France and told them about the situation in Portugal and how it's absolutely the worst and no one gives a fuck. And they're activists so they told about that time a theatre in Porto that was supposed to be privatized (basically handed to a private wealthy guy by the mayor) and how they wrote an entire play around getting people to occupy the theatre and they stayed there with children and families for a week I think until they got the police on their asses. They stayed in the theatre and the whole neighborhood worked out ways to keep them safe and feed them, like the restaurants around passed food and supplies and the neighbors handed them blankets and stuff.
