Trivia

Fun things that have happened to me

  • The first concert I went to was a Seventeen (the K-pop band) concert. I didn't know them, and so my friend spent half a day teaching and quizzing me on member names.
  • I had a Winx Club fan Instagram that amassed an upwards of 1.7k followers at some point. That was maybe at least 8 years ago, though.
  • While I don't log in every day, I've been playing HoYoVerse's Genshin Impact for an upwards of 5.5 years.


    • favorite book

    if you're pretentious, on earth we're briefly gorgeous by Ocean Vuong.

    for everyone else, if we were villains by M.L. Rio.

    favorite TV show

    Severance starring Adam Scott or Netflix's Three-Body Problem.

    favorite anime

    as an homage to my art style, I think I should comment on this...

    Sonny Boy by Shingo Natsume or Heavenly Delusion adapted from Masakazu Ishiguro's manga series. Over the years, I've gotten extremely picky with anime.

    favorite video game

    etherane's Hello Charlotte series. (I would say Nintendo x Cygames' Dragalia Lost, too, but it's been dead for years.)

    favorite musicians

    Sabrina Carpenter, The Vanished People, DAOKO, sasanomaly, Wallows, half alive.

    comfort videos and the like

    Improv games from Shoot from the Hip or voice actor Zach Aguilar's Among Us streams.

    lukewarm takes

    I could not, and probably never will, finish K-Pop Demon Hunters.

    I'm generally not a huge fan of romance or rom-com type shows.

    I don't like the taste of most fruits. I wish it weren't that way, but I have never been able to change it.
