Get to know me a little

1. What are your favorite hobbies?

Currently, I’ve picked up sewing again. I’m terrible at it but I just love to tinker with things. But I do a bit of leather working, writing, did film photography before it got to expensive. And the gym, so much gym time currently! 


2. In your free time, what do you like to do?

Since this industry has a lot of downtime, I’ve found myself on YouTube a lot, which can be good if I’m watching creative videos on how to do things, but let’s be honest.. It’s not always productive. If I’m not doom scrolling, I’m making things basically.


3. Favourite perfume?

My daily go to is Vanilla2 by Maison Tahité, I just love it. It’s my dream to get my hands on Bitter Peach by Tom Ford one day, though I'm scared of the price and that I'll run through it too quickly because holy crap it smells so bloody good!


4. What was the hardest part of the past weeks for you?

I had surgery, tonsillectomy, and then few days after started bleeding out of my surgery wounds. It was honestly really scary. I was lucky I had been awake when the bleeding had started or the outcome could have been drastically different. Even being awake and coming to realize what was happening it went so quickly. The whole recovery has been pretty rough and mentally challenging. 


5. What is your favorite book?

Consider This by Chuck Palahniuk, I love his outlook of Life and Writing. I might read it again after this question sparking my appreication for it again. Otherwise Dresden Files, by Jim Butcher is just a fun series.


6. What is your favorite TV show?

Currently, Fallout, look forward to the new season. I’m not a huge TV Show watcher. But if I do it’s usually in the Fantasy genre. In anime however, The Apothecary Diaries, Frieren, Mashle: Magic and Muscle, and Solo Leveling has been some ones I’ve loved recently. 


7. What is your favorite movie?

Nice Guys, I just love it, one of the very few movies I’ve watched multiple times. It’s a good time, silly but good. 


8. What is your favorite Lingerie color?

Well according to my lingerie wardrobe that would be Black, but I secretly love orange, (and warming up to other colours too) though specific shade of orange, and sadly not many of those exist! I love Honey Birdette brand as they make G Cup, which is harder to find but forking out five hundred per set it racks up quickly. I don't dare to add up my lingerie total for fear of my sanity. Never thought I'd have a lingerie addiction, but here we are lol.


9. What is your favorite food?

The Pot Pie from Charlie Nobel. Went to Charlie Nobel for the first time over the weekend thanks to a Gentleman and I can’t stop thinking about it. I am literally craving it, it was so good. But otherwise a good roast. I’m a simple Meat and Potatoes girlie. 


10. What do you like to eat for breakfast?

Eggs, all the eggs. Eggs benni with potato rosti with either salmon or bacon (both preferably), and I’m very happy. 


11. What is your favorite sport, if you have one?

Bodybuilding. I don’t really follow any sports, but I find bodybuilding extremely interesting. Might be due to the sociology aspects of it as it seems to be a controversial sport to the masses, specially the women's division (apart from Bikini). But I love the dedication for the sport and been to a few shows now, there's so much support for the athletes in the crowd. Good vibes.


12. If you could be an animal for a day, what would you be and why?

A house cat in a loving home. Imagine the rest and love you’d get. Bliss. 


13. What kind of music do you like to listen to?

All sorts. Depends on my what my ADHD gets attracted too and obsessed with. Currently the three artists on rotation heavily are: Doechii, Kendrick Lamar, and Maneskin.


14. If you could play any instrument, what would it be?

Drums or Bass. Unfortunately, music is not one of my talents, I’ve tried many times to play an instrument, and it’s absolute gibberish to my brain. 


15. Would you rather win the lottery or be famous?

Lottery, quietly wealthy please! I’m terrified of the internet, would rather not have that many eyes on me. I would never leave the house ever again!


16.What is something you would really want to learn about in 2025?

I wanted to start my Honours, but with the recession happening it’s been postponed. Thought about doing a Personal Training course too. But in general, want to learn more about food and nutrition I think. 


17. What is something that you are thankful for?

My body. She’s been through a fair bit, from varying sources. I feel guilty for not looking after her as well as I could have over the years. I’m currently in the midst of changing all that. 


18. What is your favorite thing to do over the weekends?

Everyday feels like a weekend day to me in this industry, coming from hospo and long hours, it feels like a constant weekend. So, basically just try a be creative or do something productive each day, so I don’t go loopy. 


19. If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would it be?

Japan. Japan. Japan. I’m in love. And really want to go back and explore more of the country. Only saw Tokyo last time, would love to see Kyoto next and Okinawa as well at some point in summer. 


20. What are your financial goals?

To be comfortable. To be wealthy would be nice. But as long as I don’t have to worry about money in my weekly is the goal. To make a decent purchase and not have to look at my account! A house would be nice, but that’s looking to be increasingly impossible. 


21. What is your most frequently-used or favorite emoji?

Probably the Coffin emoji lol. Don’t ask. 


22. What are three awesome things about yourself?

Ooof okay. Well, my stubbornness, I tend to get back up every time I get knocked over, might take me a while but I get there. My quest for self improvement, I don't like being stagnant. And I can leg press 230kgs, which I think is pretty cool haha.


23. What is something you want to achieve in 2025?

I’m not too sure at this stage, most of them are heavily financial and with the recession in full swing I’m being quite careful. I guess my focus will be hitting a certain savings goal. Not very exciting I’m afraid.


24. What is your biggest dream or goal in life?

To win Lotto and live a life in an Art Studio where I can just sew, make, potter, tinker and create till my soul is filled. I want the starving artist dream, without the starving part and money for endless creative supplies!
