i posted on fedi about wanting to write a blog post but having no ideas for a post lol. so joel sent me this blogging challenge: ten pointless facts about me, originated by forking mad!
Do you floss your teeth?
i actually do not ππ i know i should! but i've struggled with dental hygiene my whole life, and unfortunately, with the onset of my depression in high school, it's only gotten harder.
but i've been making an effort to build the habit of brushing more often than i do, and that's thankfully been working out! hopefully i can add flossing to my routine sometime.
Tea, coffee, or water?
COFFEEEEE COFFEE MY BELOVED!!!!!!!!!!!! i can literally drink like 5 cups a day. no joke. my mom gets mad because it's not good for me, but my ADHD is so bad that adderall barely helps, so i need something to help get my energy up. right now, caffeine is the only short-term solution πππ
besides coffee though, pretty much the only other beverage i drink is water. i'm an extreme picky eater so i can't really handle flavors well.
Footwear preference?
sneakers! i wear the same pair most of the time (these adorable coach outlet sneakers my mom got on sale a while back).
recently, my mom got me these ADORABLE hello kitty themed sneakers, but sadly they're a size up so they don't fit me!! i'm hoping to sell the pair i have and find the same one but in my size.
Favourite dessert?
oughhhh i don't know.... i don't really eat desserts often? my palate is extremely limited for Reasons, so that makes eating food hard for me (especially new-to-me foods).
that said, i do like brownies when i can handle them, and i loveeee soft serve vanilla ice cream (with chocolate sprinkles).
The first thing you do when you wake up?
make coffee πππ i'm a coffee fiend i literally can't emphasize that enough lol
Age you'd like to stick at?
i can't answer this!!!! i'm 21 so i haven't been an adult for long, and my teenage years sucked for the most part lol
How many hats do you own?
hmmm i don't think i have any.... i should change this. hats are epic
Describe the last photo you took?
it's a photo of my notebook with my gel pen on top! it's turned to a page noting down what i remembered from the stars on ice show i went to the other day.
i have my gel pen on top to show it off; it's a no-name brand i think, just something with a cutesy design. i got it from miniso because i wanted to try out gel pens on a budget (read: i am chronically broke)
Worst TV show?
lol this is a hard question for me. i like pretty much anything i watch.
As a child, what was your aspiration for adulthood?
i had a lot of dreams, but they were mostly typical for a child (ballerina, athlete, stuff like that). i never had a concrete idea on what i wanted to do when i got older, even by the time i got to high school. by then, i decidedβ very haphazardly and unsureβ that i wanted to be an audio engineer, mostly because of my past in playing with vocal synthesizers (vocaloid, UTAU, etc).
that plan changed in just a year, though, when i fell down the self-hosting/sysadmin rabbit hole, and decided for sure that i wanted to become a professional sysadmin. and that's where i'm at now!
