Candy Kong from Donkey Kong 64?

I know how I want to start this post, but I want to share some self restraint. Nah, just kidding. It’s Brittney, bitch. They Lara Crofted this design up like seriously. I don’t know how much more to say, because this one is just obvious. I know typically I shy away from primates, but like seriously. This one crosses off enough boxes to be counted as serious furbait.

Okay, personality-wise you’re definitely a quiet forest (like a HUGE, old forest where you feel so small but also safe) or a misty sunrise. But aesthetically you’re definitely a desert.

i'm a veronica stan first and a person second because when @saecastrophe was pitching the fallout games to me the first thing she told me about new vegas was that you can have a lesbian companion who's really good at punching things and i was sold right then

fun questions - all odd numbers!

Jules! TYSM for the questions, I love you 💛

Answers below the readmore:

1. what are 3 things you’d say shaped you into who you are?

(whoops, I read this as "people" instead of things. not changing it)

-my grandmother

-my 5th grade teacher that read us Langston Hughes and Edgar Allan Poe

-the Japanese street fashion photographer Shoichi Aoki!

3. 3 films you could watch for the rest of your life and not get bored of?

Well, my favorite movies are Matilda and Holes, so definitely those two! For the last one...definitely a horror movie, but I'm not sure which. Maybe Saw?

5. what made you start your blog?

Most of my friend group used both it and Pinterest, and I already loved Pinterest, so I randomly decided to give Tumblr a try too. I remember it being about midnight and I stayed awake for another hour or two just going through my friends' archives and thinking "this is awesome, so much inspiration" aaaaaand here I am now 10 years later

7. what scares you the most and why?

I have a strong aversion bordering on a phobia of tornadoes. I have dealt with recurring nightmares about them for my entire life. What's worse is that I have gotten prophetic dreams about other life events before, so I worry that maybe these are prophetic too ;-; It used to be more of a morbid fascination, and I'd pass time looking at photos of tornadoes and reading about the deadliest ones. They were something I enjoyed scaring myself with, like horror movies...but at some point, that turned into anxiety, and I don't even like looking at pictures of them now. I get extremely anxious when there is a tornado watch.

I have been told (don't remember this at all) by both my mother and grandmother that we used to live in an area that got frequent tornadoes when I was a toddler, and one day, my mom and I got caught outside while one had touched down. It was close enough for us to hear that "freight train" wind, and my grandmother apparently heard me crying through all of that noise and shouted at my mother to guide her towards the shelter. Maybe that situation was hard for me to comprehend at the time and traumatized me!

Also, true story: A few months ago, I was sitting outside on a clear, windy day. There was a particularly big gust and then this moment where time almost felt as if it was in slow motion as I processed the fact that there was debris...levitating? in the air around me for a moment. Then the wind whipped up again; dirt, leaves, and dust smacked me in the face. It was over just as quickly as it began. Something about the weather circumstances that day and my exact positioning within my yard created this once-in-a-lifetime moment where I was essentially in the center of an invisible whirlwind. It was both incredibly fascinating and horrific!

9. tell a story about your childhood

OKAY I loved to read anything and everything I could get my hands on as a kid, and once I learned of the existence of online cheat code/walkthrough guides, my world totally opened up. There was one website I used to frequent to read about my DS games, and I noticed that they didn't have much info on a Tetris game I had. Sensing an opportunity to contribute to the Internet's body of knowledge, I typed up a how-to guide about unlocking all of the bonus music tracks in the game (which I had accomplished all on my own), made an account, lied about my age because I was definitely not 13 at a time, and submitted it. It was published! xD

11. what do you consider to be romance?

Devotion! Acts of service (to borrow from love languages). The irreplacable gift of your time in exchange for making someone's life that much better; the mundane and everyday tasks that you put up with for the ones you love. Spending half a day prepping and cooking a meal just so your loved one can savor that one bite--you know? Except apply that cooking metaphor to everything else in life.

13. what are you doing right now?

answering this! xD

but before that...I was watching an Ooblets playthrough on Youtube while savoring a dirt 'n' worms custard from Freddy's!

15. what do you think of when you hear the word “home”?

I think of the blue house that I grew up in for most of my childhood (and, by extension, that entire neighborhood since we lived about a block from my elementary school). It's not "home" in the sense of security or safety--some of my worst traumas occurred there--but it's always the home I return to in dreams. And sometimes they're good dreams, golden dreams.

Home now though? In the sense of joy and happiness? I'd say both of my grandmothers' homes in Puerto Rico, or the apartment I currently live in with its little patio <3

17. name 3 things that make you happy

my pets, my job, and Nutella!

19. favourite thing about the day?

-doing my petsite dailies because I might get cool items

-sitting outside with my dogs on nice afternoons

-dinnertime when it's McDonald's Night

21. are you a spiritual person?

in the wise words of a Tumblr post: "No religion except whatever Mary Oliver had going on" (so yes)

23. say 3 things about someone you hate

Oh, finally I have somewhere to offload my thoughts on Allistair Tenpenny. I play almost 100% Good Karma in F3 except when I meet him and, without fail, kill him on the spot because he is so out-of-touch and racist towards ghouls and it annoys me and there are no real-world consequences. What else can I say about him? It's a shame that his name is Allistair, because I've always loved that name. I also like his suit because I collect unique items and spend hours arranging them in my Megaton house. And he's right that he has a lovely view (though I disagree with the fact that Megaton ruins it)

I hate Eulogy Jones and Moriarty too, but you only asked for one, and, well, I give them some credit for being up front about how awful they are.

25. fave season and why?

Spring <3 because you can't beat wildflower season here in T*xas. The ground just erupts in a spray of blues, pinks, oranges, and yellows. It's unreal, and I'll never get tired of it, and I find it all so overwhelmingly beautiful that it almost negates the fact that my allergies are going to be on high alert for 3 months straight

27. any nicknames?

My family and childhood friends call me Cece! I usually go by that or Sal online. Sal came from "Sally"--my 6th grade math teachers called me that because they couldn't pronounce my real name, but it kind of stuck in an endearing way.

And I have a good friend who calls me Butterfly Girl because I love butterflies, and there was a point where I was somehow always finding dead ones around everywhere and writing poems about them ^_^

29. what do you do when you’re sad?

It really depends on the energy levels driving the sadness. Sometimes I need to totally distract my brain with a Treat and a video game. Sometimes it's a self-care in a "hot shower and perfume and unwind in bed with Youtube" type of way. Sometimes I just need to write my thoughts out so I can untangle them, even if I'm not writing/talking to anyone in particular.

31. are you messy or organised?

organized!!! Very! I have systems for everything, both digitally and IRL, as you can probably tell just from my blog tags

33. any hobbies?

reading and writing poetry, reading in general (though I don't do it as much as I'd like these days), listening to music and singing, tending to my plants, gaming, photography, arts and crafts, petsites, and Tumblr/Pinterest I suppose

also very slowly learning to knit. And I'm trying to practice ASL with a coworker as well

35. do you trust easily?

I can, but I don't mind it because there's not much I'm ashamed of when it comes to myself. My inner compass isn't perfect, but I believe I generally have a good feel on people, and if I quickly ascertain that someone seems to have a good heart, I have no problem opening up as needed.

37. share a secret

I haven't done this in years, but I used to randomly send anon compliments to blogs!

39. youtuber you’ve been obsessed with and why?

I was suggested Gab Smolders recently, and I think she's so beautiful and charming and I love her calm energy! She plays a mix of horror and cozy games, just like me, so she's great to listen to when I just want to relax!

@saecastrophe tagged me to make a mood board. I'm not really sure what I did here, just went through my google photos and found some photos that represent my thought. I also don't know if you are supposed to explain a mood board, but I did it anyway. The top is supposed to be me emotionally, unable to see what is going on, immersed in my tasks, and just sort of lonely. We got the middle row where I put a sunny day and a rainy day to show the change in my emotions and mental state and in the center is Dodie because she often talks about her metal disabilities and anxiety, and I relate to that (I also just love her) Then, the bottom row is what I want a nice studio apartment, to be relaxed, and to be able to master ukelele and guitar.

today's my 28th birthday ★

I don't think I've posted a selfie on Tumblr since I was in college, years ago...but I wanted something here to look back on, since my blog is my house and I actually go through my archives somewhat regularly.

I'm really proud of myself for making it through my first decade of adulthood. I had several near-death experiences before the age of 18, and I dealt with childhood trauma that will probably always affect me. I was more focused on imminent survival than my future, and I didn't know (or care) if I'd even live long enough to make much out of life.

Since then, however, life has unfolded in ways both more painful and more beautiful than I ever could have imagined. It's been nice learning more about myself the older I get, too--I'm proud of the woman I've become, and I look forward to getting to know more of her each day ^_^
