5, 6, 23 for the asks :D

5: who do you feel the most you around? not sure what this means but i will try.... i suppose i feel the most "me" around other people who are interested in stuff like zoology and paleontology and stuff, just talking about the weird and wonderful shit the earth has been up to from past til present. i feel like i find a bit of myself in other people who also spend as much time staring at grass and trees as i do. no judging anyone over not knowing anything, always happy to share knowledge.

6: three things about yourself you like (physical and none physical) already done here!

23: favorite piece of clothing? i don't know 😭 i certainly have a few but i don't remember what they are... sorry :P

TOP 5 PIECES FOR VIOLA <3

HELL YEAH MAN

okay so in no particular order:

First Meeting (Souvenir) by Eric Coates

the first time i heard this piece, i saw it performed live, and there is truly nothing like it. i can't believe it's only six minutes long dude it felt like an entire lifetime. makes you feel every emotion. HOUGH what a good piece‼️‼️

2. Der Schwanendreher by Paul Hindemith

one of the pieces of all time for viola as far as i'm concerned (and also many other people, this is one of Thee Pieces for viola). it's a total banger 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

3. Marchenbilder Op. 113, by Robert Schumann

marchenbilder (fairy tale pictures). each movement is short and pretty different from the others, perhaps you could think of it as each a different fairy tale, or each a different step on someone's journey. the second movement is sooo fun but also one of those pieces where you look at the sheet music and you're like WHOAA okayyyy. and the fourth movement is really pretty and soft and sweet :)))

4. Romanze Op. 81, by Max Bruch

i'm actually working on this one right now! i heard it over a year ago (very popular piece lol) and every single time i heard it, it was the most beautiful thing ever. that rom- really can -anze. as soon as i got home i printed the music i was like i MUST play this, and now i am!!!

5. Viola Concerto by William Walton

it's walton. what more can i say. another banger for sure.

(honorable mention to morpheus by rebecca clarke)

top 5 birds top 5 horror movies top 5 bands!!!

ooohh all of these are impossible...but thats just cause im super indecisive and a lot of the things i love i love equally :) so consider this not a ranking but just 5 things i love from each category!

BIRDS:

pigeons :) i will fucking defend pigeons til my last breath. they're incredible. the place pigeons have in human civilization, in human history, is beautiful, we've loved them for so long and we have used them for so many purposes for so long it's depressing that most of society now regards them as vermin. but i'm happy to know that the ancient practice of pigeon keeping is still alive and kickin'....im waiting for the pigeon renaissance anyday now!!!

ALBATROSSES. what a wonderful group of birds. they're such incredible fliers, the way they just LOOK their wings are so big you can see it's a bit of a struggle for them to fit them neatly against their body like many smaller birds do, the way a pigeon or bushtit might fold its wings in a way that seamlessly blends in with the rest of their body albatrosses struggle with this it's charming and funny. and of COURSE. Who could forget their devotion to their partner and children and the courtship dances. my god.

CHICKENS. another bird whose relationship with humans is fascinating and beautiful. id love to have chickens one day!!!

KIWIS.....i honestly dont know much about them but they are just so cute and strange. i relate to them, pathetic (positive) creatures of the night...

SERIEMAS. what a metal bird. they are the closest living relative of terror birds!! and id say they should be called "terror" birds too if only for the horrific way they kill things: smashing prey like small mammals and lizards and snakes against a rock until they die. oof. also they absolutely got the "velociraptor claw thing" going on they literally have sickle claws.

THIS IS QUITE LONG. but thats just cause i cannot help but babble about birds. i wont do it for the other two cateories for the sake of keeping things short hsdkjghjsdk

horror movies:

SHIN GODZILLA!!! its nor a horror movie but it has horror Elements and it does a good job of making me feel unnerved. godzilla in this movie is truly horrific and unsettling

tetsuo the iron man!!

noroi the curse. it's been a while since i saw this movie but the first (and last) time i saw this movie it mad it very difficult to sleep LOL

the evil dead

alien

bands:

ghost :D

depeche mode

genesis!

oingo boingo

everything everything (it has been so long since i listened to them and their new stuff though)

[loverboybrightsideghost]

10, 13, 21 :)

10) what’s something you’re excited for?

i get to write an essay on les mis for my writing class ehehe

13) what’s your comfort food?

quiche makes everything better always. molletes also

21) if you could tell your past self one thing, what would it be?

there is always hope, and things do get better. holding onto hope is not easy and things don’t magically make themselves better, though. you do have to actively try to make things better for yourself and others, and to try your hardest to never lose sight of the good in the world, no matter how shitty things get. it is hard as fuck to do this, but you get better at it. and i don’t think it will ever be completely easy, but it gets a bit easier as time goes on.

from this ask game!

[ratsalad]

i'm sure this is true for literally anybody who uses social media, especially with the level of anonymity people on tumblr like to maintain, but the fact that i don't talk about large chunks of my life on here is so funny when i happen to think about it - what conclusions will my friends on the puter draw when they realize that ratsalad doesn't only think about good omens 24/7 but also spent the last week obsessively watching videos of modified vintage hearses. what then
