I’ve been tagged by a few fellow Tumblrs to post 10 things about myself, and I’m happy to oblige :)
Some of these will probably be recycled for my upcoming “about” page anyway, so it’s a win-win.
- I fell in love with the English language when I went to see a theater adaptation in English of “Animal Farm” by George Orwell. I think I was 15. A trip to London three years later sealed the deal.
- I like to sit under trees and look at the sky through their branches.
- I’ve been on Tumblr since 2007, and never changed my username and avatar.
- I suffered a lot of stomach aches and migraines during my childhood. Ever since I drastically changed my outlook on life a few years ago, I barely get sick anymore.
- I’m aware there’s only a slight chance I will actually be able to do it, but I would like my future children to be home-schooled.
- I’m full of weaknesses and imperfections I’m trying hard not to lose.
- I learnt to read at a very young age (or so I’m told), but started reading books with passion only in my late adolescence. Now I’m trying to make up for the lost time.
- I like to update my graduate thesis every time I stumble on something pertinent to it.
- I played football for all my childhood, and reached a semi-professional level before quitting. I was paid and pretty good at it, but I left because it didn’t make me happy anymore.
- I’m in a long-term (and necessarily open) relationship with silence. We’re perfect for each other.
