8. Describe your favourite texture.

I like smooth things. Even if I like something soft like a stuffed animal, I like best when the fluffiness is either more like smoothness or non-existent. When I’m trying not to be upset sometimes, I have a few self-comforting behaviors that probably originate from my liking of smooth things (touching my ear, running my fingertips over my fingernails, and tugging at my hair).

27. Write a brief story about an actual adventure you’ve had.

I don’t know if I’d say I’ve ever had an “actual” adventure. I used to just go driving places with my friend Scott in high school, and one time we got lost in Camden. We past like a few blocks of hospital and found ourselves facing this tiny little building behind high fences of barbed wire that said Camden Police Station and we were like well ok maybe time to get out of here lol. We also almost got kicked out of the mall once for “smoking” candy cigarettes. Or maybe the time I saw Menopause the Musical in NY with Alexa counts. We took an unmarked cab — luckily we did not get murdered. Idk I tend not to leave the house much, so anytime I see sunlight is either in between mundanities or an adventure in itself.

29. What’s something that scares you about the future?

That I will never get to go back to school and finally get my teaching license. I’m terrified that, having finally figured out what I want to do with my life, that I’ll never get to achieve it.
