Oh this is so sweet, but also so difficult!! I'm always so hard on myself, I'm one of those people who's like "everyone's doing great, except me, I'm such a failure". It's something I'm trying not to do but it's hard, but things like this definitely help so thank you for sending this! :)

I really like how creative I am. I'm constantly thinking up OC stories. I'm not actually writing them, details, but I'm thinking of them. I also think I'm pretty good at making fanvideos and gifs and all that. Being creative like that is something I really enjoy and I wish I could spend more time on it.

I really like the colour of my eyes? Is that weird? They're a sort of combination of blue and grey but lately I feel like there's a slight hint of green in them as well? Very vaguely compared to the other two colours but there's something there idk. Either way, eye colour, cool!

I think I'm pretty good at making a room cozy? Like, my bedroom is my favourite place! There are a bunch of plants, I have my bookshelves and piles of books that don't fit my bookshelves, pillows, funkos, it's all in pale colours but the decorations really make it cozy and I wish I had more time to enjoy it.

I'm really good... At wrapping gifts! I know this sounds super random but at my previous job was a store where many people came to buy gifts (it was a kitchen/ decoration/ food/ plants/ garden/... store in case anyone's curious) and we had to wrap so many gifts! At first it was a real pain but over the years I really started to enjoy it. Easy shapes like books and such, I can wrap in under a minute, blindly (believe me, I did the test at home). When I'm wrapping gifts for family or friends, though, I'm going extra! I'm talking kraft paper, dried flowers, wax seals, washi tape, twine,... I have a whole aesthetic going on! I also have an entire box with decorations and it's getting too much tbh I need to get rid of some things...

I'm pretty good at languages. I studied a total of 5 languages: Dutch (my mother tongue), French, English, German and Spanish (6 if you count Latin during secondary school). Truth be told, my German and Spanish aren't that great anymore because I hardly use them, but I was pretty decent during my school days. English is my best foreign language, followed by French. I was like "the language person" at my previous job: they would literally call me over when a person spoke French because the rest of my collagues were horrible at it! One time a co-worker even called me over when we had customers from South-America who only spoke Spanish. She didn't even know I spoke a bit of Spanish, she just called me and assumed I would know what to do! I didn't say much, but I did understand what the customers were saying and I really think they were happy to be helped by someone who spoke even a little bit of their native language!
