Are you named after someone?

sort of? 

my parents told me that they started listening to a lot of natalie merchent when my mom was pregnant with me, and just decided they liked the name???? so, i’m not necessarily named after her, but that’s how they got the idea 

my middle name was taken from my dad’s grandmother, so my great grandma (idk if this still counts). i’ve never met her because she died when my dad was little, but my dad’s told me a lot about her. she used to routinely handwrite and mail him letters between visits when he was a kid (fun fact: he still has them all). she also had really pretty handwriting... my dad gifted me the records he had sitting in his collection that used to belong to her (bc i’m her namesake) and she signed her name in the top lefthand corner of all the covers!! she’s always given me the impression that she was a pretty cool lady, so i’m pretty fond of my middle name 

When was the last time you cried?

a few weeks ago, i think

Do you have kids?

I adopt pretty much everyone i talk to for some reason or another lol. i can’t help it... it’s like, innate in me to want to keep all of my friends close so that i can like, make sure they’re doin ok. like, come on gang let’s herd up. let me protecc, let me make u dinnerrrrr and give u warm blanketssssss when ur saddddddd 

Do you use sarcasm a lot?

yes

What’s the first thing you notice about people?

their demeanour & how genuine they seem. then probably smile, voice, laugh, hands. i’m a sucker for someone with a nice voice tbh

What’s your eye color?

technically, blue. but they’re so... muted they almost look grey (idk a good way to say it). they don’t stand out, kinda dull tbh 

Scary movies or happy endings?

uhm, both??? i love scary movies and i’m an absolute sucker for a happy ending. also you cannot compare these two things that is just not faIR

Any special talents?

literally none lol. if anything, maybe writing. but that’s boring

Where were you born?

canada

What are your hobbies?

i have too many hobbies hahaha. i’ll just describe one!

quite a few years ago i started painting flower pots (yes, specifically flower pots. literally so many flower pots) as a way to help me deal with my anxiety, and after awhile it kind of just turned into something i did routinely? not rly sure why i started doing it in the first place but here i am 

I don’t paint them as often as i used to. but they kind of gave me another hobby... i have about 10 plants that i take care of now in my tiny room, and all of them are in pots that i’ve painted 

idk. it’s a little strange but, what can ya do 

Do you have any pets?

yes!! a kitten named luna and a sweet doggo named lennon (but i tend to call her lemon hehehehe)

How tall are you?

5′3 I think? all of my IDs say 160cm

What sports do you play/have you played?

my parents signed me up for soccer when i was around 4/5 and the first and only goal i ever scored was on my own net during a game. does that answer your question 

Favourite subject at school?

in highschool, my favourite subjects were always english & art 

Dream job?

this one is really hard for me to answer.

when i was really young, i wanted to be an “artist” bc i rly liked colouring books and drawing hahahah. when i was a little bit older it changed to “writer” (which is literally not a specific career at all good job past me). now, i’m honestly not so sure. i think i’d love the idea of publishing a book someday... but that isn’t really a job 

aaaaaaaand i’m almost finished a 4 and 1/2 year long undergrad in business marketing LOL glad those two things are super related

i,,,, literally always tag the same 2 people... @om-nommz & @rukiyo. other than @moyasolkoroleva (who i literally don’t tag only bc they’re always the one who tags me hahahaha), they’re the only mutuals that i routinely talk to
