What is your favorite thing to do on your phone? Fucking around on social media like a true Gen Z-er would, lmao. I have several games that I’d play occasionally, but most of the time I just check the same three apps – Messenger, Facebook, and Twitter. Do you know what you are going to be for Halloween this year? If so, what? I don’t even know if I have plans for the rest of the year. Do you still go trick-or-treating, and if so, how old are you? The last time we did was 2015, when we were 17. Nowadays we just have costume parties. Which Disney princess resembles you the most? At the moment it’s probably Moana, but I heard they’re making a Southeast Asian Disney princess so I’m waiting for her :) What color was your first phone? I’m not sure what the model’s actual color was because it was already in a Winnie the Pooh case when I got it as a present, but the case itself was red.

Was your first phone a flip phone? No, it was one of the Nokia ones with a slightly green screen and the Snake game on it. Have you ever butt dialed someone? I don’t think so. It’s normally the other way around. What is your favorite pizza parlor? We don’t have many of that around here; most places serve a little bit of everything with pizzas usually having its own section on the menu. That said, my favorite place to get pizza is Mama Lou’s if I have some cash on me and want to be fancy, and Yellow Cab if I want fast food pizza but still quality pizza. What is an old website that closed down that you miss? I’m pretty sure Tumblr shut down my old survey blog, the one I’ve had since 2012 or 2013, and I’m very bummed out by it. It’s also weird to me because I have a blog that’s been inactive for much longer and that one is still up... so I don’t know why they would shut down the blog that served as my journal during my teen years. I occasionally look back on it to see how I was doing then and compare it to who I am now, so it sucks that I can’t do that anymore. If you're a girl, have you ever had an embarrassing period story? I guess, but I’ve also reached a point where I’ve stopped seeing period mishaps as embarrassing. Stuff like that just happens sometimes, and I can’t be around people who are going to be babies about it. ...If so, what happened? The worst instance was leaking during a PE workout and my classmate pointing it out for me, and then having to change into denim jeans for the rest of the workout since that was the only other pair of bottoms I had.  What was your worst experience in high school? I can remember one but I don’t wanna relive my anxieties here by writing it in full detail so no thanks. What was your high school's mascot? We don’t have a mascot; we only had colors. Do you listen to Grace VanderWaal? Only if she’s on the radio. I don’t dislike her but I also don’t think I’ve ever looked up her music voluntarily. ...if yes, what's your favorite song of hers? I’m not familiar with her song titles. I’ve caught some songs that I liked but I wouldn’t be able to tell you which ones they were. Do you watch America's Got Talent? Only the compilation videos they’ve got on YouTube. Which country has the best accent? I don’t really rank accents lol Did you cry at your high school graduation? I cried the night before. I find that I don’t usually cry when an event that’s supposed to be emotional is happening, but I do cry before or after it. Did you cry at your college graduation (if applicable)? LOL if applicable, fucking same. I think I’ll mostly be relieved when it finally happens because I’m expecting it to keep getting postponed for now. Do your parents try to stop you from chasing your dreams? No, but they’re also realistic. I tried to court my dad about having an internship with WWE at Connecticut, and he was less than enthusiastic about it which I completely understood. What dreams have stuck with you since childhood? My dream house, to go to Wrestlemania, and to have a lot of money hahaha. Who is a former friend that you wish would come back into your life? Egh, I feel like the way life has turned out has been for the best and I’m currently not wishing any of my former friends back. I suppose it would be nice to have my relationship with Macy back, though. Have you ever been in a serious romantic relationship? Yes, like the one I’m in now. Who was your favorite Spice Girl? I didn’t have one but I did have a soft spot for Victoria Beckham since she’s always in fashion magazines and also because her family has always looked so happy. But I never really liked her as part of the group? because I knew about Victoria before I knew about the Spice Girls. Sorryyy please put your pitchforks down I was born in 1998 :(( <333 Did you ever want to be in a band or music group? No. What instrument did you play in the marching band? We don’t have a club like that here. If you could take any one type of dance class right now, what kind you take? Ballet. Who got kicked off of your favorite talent show that you were mad about? There were a gazillion unfair eliminations on American Idol but I remember being most pissed off over Scotty McCreery’s win and Pia Toscano’s elimination. Do you own the entire series on DVD of any TV show? If so, what? I have a bootleg box set of the 80s sitcom Perfect Strangers, but other than that I’ve been able to watch TV shows via torrent or Netflix, soooo. What show did you always want to be on when you were a kid? I wanted to be a part of the dancing audience on Hi-5, and to be dumped with slime at the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards lol. Can you tell the difference between Mary-Kate and Ashley? No. Who is your favorite set of twins? Seoeon and Seojun from The Return of Superman. What is the stupidest baby name you have heard recently? Welp, nothing has beaten Covid Bryant yet... What is the grossest thing you have ever vomited up? Nothing too gross. Just alcohol. Have you ever thrown up in public, in front of someone else? Yes. The sensation of puking terrifies me so there’ve been a few times I asked Gabie to go to the Pop-Up washroom with me, enter a stall also with me, and to calm me down while I throw up D: ...If yes, was it embarrassing? I don’t find it embarrassing because she’s my girlfriend. I’d never ask anyone else to do the same thing for me though. Did you ever take your dog to school? Just once, for my graduation shoot. Name one person you know who had a baby in high school. No one in my batch had a baby while in high school, just shortly after. I’m not naming them but one of them already has three kids, one has a boy, and another one also has a boy. Do you keep a list of your favorite quotes? No. Describe your dream wedding in three words. Lots of food. What is your favorite Chinese restaurant? Tim Ho Wan or King Bee. Does Chinese food make you feel sick? No. Well Filipinos are kinda used to Chinese food, so it would be odd for us to get sick from it. Have you ever seen someone throw up on a plane? Fortunately no. But on a boat and a ship, yes. Do you get motion sickness? Yes, easily.

I’m just going to ignore the next seven questions because I’m tired of entertaining questions like these. Has God ever healed you of anything? If so, what? Do you believe in God? Do you pray, and if so, to whom? What is the most boring church you have ever attended? What is the most lively church you have ever attended? Do you find church fun or boring? When was the last time you went to a church service? When did you learn to ride a bike? I haven’t learned yet. I’ve had a few lucky rounds but they never lasted for more than five seconds. What do you hate the most about summer? The weather. Certainly not as fun when there’s no breeze from the beach complementing the heat. What is your favorite thing to do in a swimming pool? Stay away wherever most of the people are because it’s a little gross. Which part of your body is the most muscular? I don’t know. Do you like sugar skulls? No. Have you ever painted a sugar skull on your face? I probably had it done as a kid. Are you an artist? No. Did you ever take Latin in school? No but we were taught French very briefly because the foundress of my old school is from France. The lessons didn’t really catch on. What was the last race you ran called? I’ve never been in a race/marathon/walkathon before. Do you prefer to run in the street or on the sidewalk? Side of the street. Sidewalks are pretty inconsistent so I’m more likely to trip running on it. Which major holiday is closest to your birthday? Easter is always very near or exactly on my birthday.

Disney, 11

Okay. This one was a bit easier. Ready?

11. Evil Queen (Enchanted) Have I ever mentioned that I absolutely LOVE Susan Sarandon? She’s obviously having SO much fucking fun, and she takes over every scene she’s in. Watching her be sassy, even as a ginormous dragon, is just so much fun every time I see this movie.

10. Horned King (The Black Cauldron) This movie scared the ever-loving shit out of me as a kid, and the Horned King is solely to blame for that. His visage gave me actual nightmares, but I would always come back for more. He was the reason for that, too. Guess I just really liked getting the piss scared out of me.

9. Moana (Moana) Sort of a stagnant character storywise. She doesn’t really learn any lessons or anything. I mean...she learns how to sail. But despite that, she’s still pretty fun to watch. This is Disney’s first attempt at a movie based entirely around Polynesian culture, and I’d call it a success. Moana is a great character to look up to, and that’s what she’s for.

8. Hades (Hercules) James Woods is a fucking mastermind. Like, holy crap! He is SO FREAKING FUNNY!!

7. Kida (Atlantis: The Lost Empire) This is already an underrated movie with perhaps one of the most underrated Disney princesses of all time. This woman is freaking amazing!

6. Maui (Moana) Dwayne Johnson. That is all.

5. Mulan (Mulan) Easily one of the most feminist Disney princesses--hell, possibly one of the most feminist Disney CHARACTERS--ever, even today. The whole character arc is hers, the story is hers, the romance is almost literally an afterthought. She herself is instrumental in saving not just a country, but an entire EMPIRE (remember, historical China didn’t look back then the way it does now). Sure, she has Mushu try and “teach” her how to act like a man, but all of the respect she gains is entirely of her own doing. It’s not because she acted like a man, it’s because she proved herself as a soldier. I had so many feminine Disney heroes in the 90′s, and the list only grows from here.

4. Megara (Hercules) Another snubbed Disney princess. Megara is freaking amazing! While she does get all lovesick in the second half, the entire first half of the movie, she is the voice of every feminist ever.

“I’m a damsel. I’m in distress. I can handle this. Have a nice day!”

“Well, you know how men are: they think no means yes, and ‘get lost’ means ‘take me, I’m yours.’“

Also, her backstory is really fucking tragic. Like, holy shit. She got fucking JIPPED. Like, I don’t know who that guy was, but fuck him. Fuck him hard.

3. Quasimodo (The Hunchback of Notre Dame) Another tragic character, and an ACTUAL victim of Stockholm Syndrome. >.> His entire life, he’s been told his appearance would cause people to hate him, and his first experience in the outside world proves that notion right. That humiliation scene still makes me cry every time. You understand everything he experiences, from the terror of the outside to the wonder and awe when he first meets Esmeralda. He just wanted to be treated like a person, and even as a kid, that was all I ever wanted for him.

2. Esmeralda (The Hunchback of Notre Dame) Speaking of Esmeralda! If there is anyone I think deserves to be a Disney princess more than anyone else, it is this lady right here. She embodies everything a little girl should want to be: equality, justice, strength, confidence. She is more than capable of holding her own. The movie paints her as an object to be desired only when being shown from the point of view of the men who want her. The man she actually does end up falling for, she falls for as an equal. He doesn’t see her as something to be protected (other than Frollo’s persecution, but that’s an enemy far too big for her to take on alone, and even then it’s just as one of an entire people that needs to be defended). Poor Quasi gets his heart broken, but by the end, he realizes that she’s not an object to be claimed; she’s her own person and should be treated as such. Once he comes to terms with that, he not only accepts her love for someone else, but they remain friends even into the nonexistent sequel that doesn’t exist because it was a piece of shit and completely doesn’t understand what made the first one so great.

Can you taste the salt?

Here’s another list of Honorable Mentions:

Baymax (Big Hero 6) Ba-la-la-la!

Claude Frollo (The Hunchback of Notre Dame) This movie did NOT hold back on its warnings against persecution in the name of religion and sexuality. Like, holy hell.

WALL E (WALL E) Second best mostly-silent love story Disney has ever made.

Lilo and Stitch (Lilo & Stitch) Gotta put these two together. They’re a team! Also, I am ALWAYS up for an Elvis soundtrack.

Kronk (The Emperor’s New Groove) Patrick Warburton is a funny, funny man.

Yzma (The Emperor’s New Groove) She has got to be one of the funniest fem baddies I’ve ever seen.

Gurgi (The Black Cauldron) Am I the only one who’s NOT annoyed by him? I get the voice, but...he’s just such a sweetie. And his was the first onscreen death I actually comprehended and mourned. (And, yes, that’s including the upcoming one. Don’t judge me.)

Genie (Aladdin) Had to put Robin Williams on here. Comedy will never be the same without him. And this movie is strong evidence of that.

Mufasa (The Lion King) Like I said, don’t judge me. As a kid, my puny brain just figured he was taking a nap or something. Idk.

Still, now that I do understand what’s going on, I freaking bawl my eyes out. Seriously. It’s actually worse now than it was back then. I cry at his death almost as bad as I cry at John Coffey’s death in The Green Mile. It’s that bad.

And finally, my number one favorite Disney character is...

1. James Pleiades Hawkins (Treasure Planet) BEST MOVIE EVER!!! I will fight for this movie until my last goddamn breath. First of all, juvenile delinquent character who actually gets in trouble with the law. Doesn’t end up with a love interest. Character arc is entirely based around dealing with his father leaving. Not dying. LEAVING!! He just up and walked out on Jim and his mom, and he doesn’t come back. There’s no sudden reunion or last sacrifice or “Hey! He was secretly trying to protect you this whole time!” Nope. He just left. And Jim’s character arc is coming to terms with that, and finding a healthy way to deal with his emotions.

Not only that, but his relationship with Long John Silver is given new dimension like I haven’t seen before or since.

This movie is an underrated gem, from its characters to its story to visuals (god those visuals!!!). Everything about it is amazing!!

Also, I had a crush on Jim and his rat tail braid until I was 18 and learned he was only 15 and it started to feel weird. XD
