⇢ ꒰ঌ·✦·໒꒱ facts about me ────── · ·
- I have and play a lot of cozy farming games and I am planning to get more. Stardew Valley, Coral Island, Fields of Mistria, Palia, Animal Crossing, Hello Kitty Island Adventure etc. aren't enough!!
- I have a big toybrick castle and fitting smaller sets.
- I wish I had antlers on my head. I would also love to find some shed ones in the forest one day.
- I would rather be told the truth and realistic chances of something than be deluded with positive twists, false hope, and all that. I do better with being told something bad and mentally adjusting to that, than anticipating something better and being let down.
- I have dyscalculia and aphantasia. This makes pen and paper sessions extra special...
- I usually identify more deeply with alien or robot characters.
- The first few things probably already made your radar go off, but just in case it didn't: I am indeed on the spectrum.
- I'm working on becoming a data protection officer and enrolled into a 1.5 year certificate course for it, next to fulltime work and my parttime law degree :)
- I hate when I write a thoughtful message that is a bit longer and someone comments about how much I type or how long it is, and has nothing else to add. I think it's one of the top things you can piss me off with.
- I have extremely long eyelashes.
- I am very impatient and it's my biggest weakness.
- I used to walk on my toes a lot as a kid.
- I talk in my sleep and I even sleepwalk!
- I'm better at drawing/painting/sculpting landscapes and objects than bodies.
- My favorite Sanrio characters are Mocha and Big Challenges.
- I like to stir the pasta into the sauce in the pan, instead of combining it on the plate.
- I tend to be overly organized, cleanly, a bit rigid in my schedule and have high expectations for myself and others. I heard that it makes me intimidating, a bit unapproachable and it sometimes makes people feel judged.
- I can rant weirdly about Maslov's hierarchy.
- My priorities for gifts are experiences > things that can be used up > useful household items > hobbies
- I am a pro at fishing minigames in games. No matter what, I will fish that fish for you.
- My sense of smell and sound is annoyingly sensitive.
- Images of baby birds with their mouth open in the nest make me cry.
- On a keyboard, I write with my (acrylic or press on) nails, not my finger tips.
- I like sorting the toy bricks into piles before building.
- I am not on WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, Threads, X, Bluesky, Cohost, SpaceHey, Mastodon, Reddit, Tumblr, Microblog, Youtube or TikTok.
- I speak German and English, but I also learned Latin, Italian and Spanish in school (10 years ago, so not much left!) and learned Swedish privately for a couple years. I went to a school with a bilingual branch, so I had multiple subjects (Chemistry, Geography, Politics and more) in English instead of German.
- I did 6 semesters in Social Sciences at a university, but never finished it. Now I'm in the >6th semester of a law degree (as said above).
- I used to want to study Biology to get into Epigenetics Research, but I’m bad at Chemistry and Math, so I had to give that up.
- At my job, I’m responsible for antibiotics, vitamins, hormones and antivirals.
- I dyed my hair from ages 12 to 22; I had black, red, natural red, petrol, and purple. Since then, I just had my natural brown.
- Most of my wardrobe is black, another significant part is wine red. I also avoid any brand logos or text and symbols on clothing; I just want plain clothes.
- I prefer backpacks over handbags, but I have both.
- Also, I write little life snapshots.
