Look what they made me do

[sunny-day-sky]

Tagged by @elinaline 💜 thank you for this! I like these things!

1. What is the colour of your hairbrush?

Pink

2. name of a food you never eat?

Bananas 🍌 generally, I’m not too picky, but I can’t stand banana at all! 

3. are you typically too warm or too cold?

Too warm! I am a Furnace 🔥

4. what were you doing 45 minutes ago?

Looking at memes and replying to a few messages!

5. what’s your favourite candy bar?

I don’t like candy that much, so probably just a plain dark chocolate bar that isn’t too big or sweet

6. have you ever been to a professional sports event?

Like semi-professional, I guess? My mom got free tickets through work, and I hated every minute of it

7. what is the last thing you said out loud?

“Tomorrow, they will take my blood.” (I have to get a blood test done for one of my medications LOL)

8. what is your favourite ice cream?

Strawberry or coffee, but if it’s frozen yogurt, then cookies-and-cream!

9. what is the last thing you had to drink?

A Monster energy drink (the pink one). But actually, I should probably have some water. What a good reminder!

10. do you like your wallet?

Yes! It’s a little red designer wallet that one of our family friends gave me as a graduation gift after my senior recital in high school, and it makes me look like I have more money than I do unless you open it! :D

11. what was the last thing you ate?

Leftovers from dinner, but it was breakfast food, because Emily and I are ADULTS and ANARCHISTS 😤

12. did you buy any new clothes last week?

okay yes but it only cost a few pounds, and I hardly ever do, like this is the first time in a long time, so please don’t judge me :(

13. last sporting event you watched?

I actually don’t know! I don’t tend to watch sports! I think the last one I was even near was the televised horse race with robot horses, but I was cooking at the time, so I didn’t absorb much!

14. what’s your favourite flavour of popcorn?

I have to say, nothing really beats classic salt and butter, but tajin is a good addition 😋

15. who was the last person you sent a message to?

Chanel!

16. ever go camping?

Not willingly.

17. do you take vitamins?

I take vitamin D when I’m reminded to 😅

18. do you go to church every Sunday?

Not unless I’m performing or with family

19. do you have a tan?

Nope! I did once, when I did outdoor PE in summer to get it out of the way before my sophomore year of high school, but it r e a l l y didn’t suit me LOL

20. do you prefer Chinese food or pizza?

Chinese food all the way! Especially “real” Chinese food (like, the kind I would cook for my relatives, you know), but commercial food is delicious too!

21. do you drink soda with a straw?                      

No, I drink it with alcohol 🧐

22. what colour socks do you wear?

Black, because then I don’t have to sort them, and Emily and I can just grab! I have some cute socks from Daiso, but I left them in California by mistake

23. do you ever drive above the speed limit?

Only like 20 miles above if someone is riding with me, but when I’m by myself, all bets are off 🚗🌬

24. what terrifies you?

It’s a good question! I feel like I’m afraid of really random stuff. I also don’t want to make this post too depressing or Deep, so I’ll just name one! I’m afraid of dark windows at night, especially when I’m looking out through them.

25. look to your left what do you see?

My water bottle, neglected all day 😭

26. what chore do you hate?

Washing dishes. It’s the worst! Even cleaning the bathroom is better!

27. what do you think of when you hear an Australian accent?

To be honest, when I hear any accent that isn’t mine, I sort of linguistically analyze it and think to myself how cool and awesome it is. I like to hear linguistic variation, and it makes my ears so happy to hear other people talk!

28. what’s your favourite soda?

Probably ginger ale, but I don’t really drink soda unless it’s a mixer

29. do you go into fast food places or drive thru?

It depends on what I’m ordering, if I have a coupon, or if I’m in a hurry (or wearing an ugly outfit LOL) but I usually like to go in!

30. who was the last person you talked to?

Emily in person; Natalie over text!

31. favourite cut of beef?

It’s hard to say! I think it really depends on how I’m cooking it, and for whom. Brisket is great for slow-cooking, but if I’m making a steak, I’d rather use a more tender cut. Probably the best is strip steak, because it’s cheap 😅

32. last song you listened to?

Anywhere by Rita Ora

33. last book you read?

I’ve been doing really bad with reading lately, unfortunately, so probably Proust?

34. can you say the alphabet backwards?

If I tried, I probably could! But when you really think about it, why is the alphabet in that order? Does backwards really mean anything? 🤔

35. how do you like your coffee?

Cream, no sugar

36. favourite pair of shoes?

That’s a tough one! I love shoes! Maybe my black heels that I got just before the lockdown (they were on sale), or else my pink pumps

37. the time you normally go to bed?

When I’m on a healthy (for me) schedule, around 11 or midnight, but lately, my sleep cycle is all kinds of messed up, and it’s been closer to 4AM :/

38. the time you normally wake up?

I prefer to wake up at around 6:30 or 7, but recently, it’s been... not that.

39. what do you prefer, sunrise or sunsets?

I think it depends on my mood. I love both, but for different reasons. Sunrise feels fresh and beautiful, while sunset feels exciting and cool. But right now, I think I would like to see a sunset!

40. how many blankets are on your bed?

Just the one

41. describe your kitchen plates?

We all sort of use each whatever is to hand, so there’s no cohesive theme. I do want to buy a matching set for me and Emily when we move out, though!

42. do you have a favourite alcoholic beverage?

Whiskey all the way!

43. do you play cards?

Not well, but my siblings and I do like to play together when we hang out, especially on holidays. There are four of us, so it’s convenient for dealing!

44. what colour is your car?

Black! But I had to leave her in California-- unfortunately, it’s frowned upon to bring cars on international plane journeys :(

45. can you change a tire?

I know how to in theory, but I’ve never done it

46. your favourite province?

I’m going to interpret this as “state” because I am but a simple American :/ California is the best, of course!

47. favourite job you’ve had?

Violin teaching 🎻 unless you count working at the psycholinguistics lab in college, but I didn’t get paid for that LOL

48. how did you get your biggest scar?

Most of my scars are not fun, but I do have a cool crescent-shaped one from my one and only car crash!

49. what did you do today that made someone happy?

I told Cesar where to read the Hunter X Hunter manga, and I feel like that should count for something 😛

I’m not explicitly tagging anyone, because this is very long! But if you see it and want to do it, just go right ahead and say that I tagged you :D You can even list me as “an anonymous source who tasked you to do their bidding” if you want :D
