But generally I like volcanoes! I crave destruction

G-Man wrote: ↑Thu Mar 03, 2022 7:54 pm What flavor always takes you to your happy place?

What color(s) fill you with joy?

What instrument do you listen to when you want to feel yourself rising out of your own body?

What texture makes you feel warm and happy inside?

What smells inviting to you?

1. Mint chocolate or vanilla! Former is if I want to feel energetic happy and latter is if I want to feel relaxed happy, if that makes sense
2. Blues and greens make me feel happy! Especially pastel colors
3. I like listening to violins and/or pianos (plus points if played together) when I want to feel that
4. The texture of a blanket - can't explain what it feels like but it feels nice
5. Freshly baked bread, vanilla, and the smell of rain
Those smells always smell like home
They also make me sleepy

So in all honesty who I really am vs. who I want to be is very hard to determine/discern

Syn wrote: ↑Thu Mar 03, 2022 5:42 pm This is a deeply personal question and it is totally fine if you don't want to answer it: Why is identity such a complicated process for you?

I'm fine with answering this!
I'm not so sure why it's so complicated for me though
Maybe because since I was born a girl I wasn't allowed to have much of an identity past "good student", "good and obedient daughter", "good and loving sister"?
The attention and love mostly went to my brother
He was told he could be anyone he wanted and our parents wouldn't judge
Probably because he was born a boy and is inherently superior to girls, in my parents' eyes

Me! ignoramus#3132
I was asking if you were Lincoln or one of the other people. Because I remember you being named something else

OH
Sometimes my nickname is Lincoln, yeah! Basically it's just one of my many names because as someone who doesn't know what gender I am I hop between different names

(if that makes sense)

G-Man wrote: ↑Wed Mar 02, 2022 9:30 pm Will you forgive me if I ask you a question that has already been asked?

Which of the four seasons of the year do you prefer the most?

What is your least favorite meal to make?

1. I will always forgive you! (also because half of the time I can't remember what's been asked lmao)
2. I prefer autumn! After that is winter, then next is spring
Essentially every season I've never gotten to experience
3. My least favorite meal to make would probably be cup noodles, if that counts
I only make it if mom and dad aren't around and/or don't give a damn about what me and my siblings eat
I can't really cook either because I'm scared that if I mess up mom's kitchen she'll punish me severely

Syn wrote: ↑Wed Mar 02, 2022 7:26 pm Are you a good singer?

U h
Probably not
But tbf the only way for us to really know is if someone listened to me sing, which I will never allow as much as I can
My confidence is too low for that haha

Syn wrote: ↑Tue Mar 01, 2022 11:08 pm What's the longest distance you've run?

Honestly? I have no idea
I did run for about 5-10 minutes in the school gym when there was physical school, as part of a requirement
I sprinted for 2 minutes then just ran normally because I was starting to wheeze
Don't ask me how big it is because I really don't know lmao

Syn wrote: ↑Tue Mar 01, 2022 10:38 pm Do you like any sports?

But in all seriousness, I kinda like track and field/marathon running! If that's a sport
I like running a lot, or as much as my lungs will allow

Syn wrote: ↑Tue Mar 01, 2022 7:17 pmFavourite role?

Vanilla, tbh
No worries if I died in the game in any way
If I get NKed, then at least I saved a potential PR
If I get yeeted, no worries
At least there's no anxiety if I was a PR and I got yeeted D1, for example (yes this happened in a game once. I was the doctor. It Hurt)

Also I just realized
What is a Marmot?

Scotty wrote: ↑Tue Mar 01, 2022 5:01 pm What’s your favorite type of movie?
What’s your ideal vacation?
Do you prefer to be mafia, town, 3p or marmot?

1. I like horror movies! Especially psychological horror
2. A vacation where I can be who I really am and do absolutely whatever with the family that I chose (and no, chances are my biological parents won't be part of that)
3. Town or marmot! I know it goes against what mafia is, but I hate having to lie and deceive people, partially because I was raised to be honest unless I am at risk of being harmed, and mafia won't harm me

I don't really like having long hair tbh
I'd prefer a shorter hairstyle but given my facial structure, it'll make me look more like a girl probably
I'll try to send a few pictures if I figure out how to!

As someone who has been told by my parents time and time again not to eat street food, I don't think I can recommend much
If you're willing to go eat at those stalls then sure! But as for restaurants, maybe Jerry's Grill? Note: $1 = Php50, give or take
Do with that as you will when counting for how expensive things are
Sorry I can't help much,, I can only go to specific restaurants my parents like

It feels harder to control my hand, maybe because I only draw with my finger when on an iPad

I have!!! Maybe not specifically 3am but it was super late and my friend who lives down the street was over for movie night and suggested the conjuring iirc. Anyway movie ends, I regret all choices I made in life, he leaves. I go to bed and my bedroom was on the first floor of my house, so I had a nice terrace to it. Anyway he climbed onto it and started knocking on my Windows outside like 30 mins after he supposedly left.

I started texting and calling him like crazy to come over cos someone was at my window and he would text back to stop imagining things until he gave himself away and started laughing.

We are not friends anymore.

For unrelated reasons, but still.

Oof
