Do you like Lana Del Rey? 

Can't say I do. Full disclosure, I do not get the hype. People are literally in love with her but her voice just sounds kind of average to me and her music is mid. but i don't knnow, i seem to be the only one. And Sweet Carolina is very nice, especially cause it's about her sister. But in general i don't get the hype.

How long have you been playing cello?

Since I was five or six.

I'm 4 feet and 9 inches and people are telling me not to pick up the cello because it will be bigger than me. is this true? 

There are actually lots different sizes of cellos! I started with a 1/4th size when i was much shorter than 4'9, and i now have a full size, which is as big as it gets. in between those two i had a 1/2 size cello, but i skipped the 3/4 size. If you want to play cello, size definitely doesn't have to be a limiting factor! a 3/4 size would probably be best for 4'9, though you should go to a shop and try out different sizes. Just keep in mind that the cello is not an easy instrument, and also, since you played the violin, it would take a lot of work to get your fingers trained to be able to play on a cello fingerboard. But if you think you can, you totally should!

Favourite childhood book?

hmmm... when i was 0-3, this book called something like "babies", and it had all these adorable little watercolor drawings of babies doing things like sitting in gardens and having mini baby thanksgivings and stuff. (lol.) 4-6, magic tree house books. 7-8, harry potter. 9-10, percy jackson.

Have you started Six of Crows yet? : P

ok, here's the reason i haven't read it yet: it's really hard for me to find time for books that don't have audiobooks, and the audiobook version of SoC isn't available for free anywhere, you have to buy it on audible, and i can't spend money on stuff right now (for... reasons). but i asked for it for my birthday and did not receive, so maybe i'll get it for Christmas?

Who's you favourite musical artist? 

hmmmmmmmmmmmm... hard... it's a tie between mitski and MARINA, but probably MARINA cause almost all her songs are incredible while mitski's can be a little hit or miss. (luv u mitski i'm sorry)

Have you watched Veronica Mars?

can't say that i have. what's it about?

Edited December 10, 2022 by Ookla the 3 Frogs ina Coat

[Elf They/them]

its about this 17 year old girl, veronica mars, who is the daughter of a PI and she does PI stuff too and basically theres a sort of new mystery every episode, but the overarching arc is this- 

a year ago, her best firend lilly kane, was murdered. her father (who was the Sheriff back then) accused lilly's own father of being the culprit. he eventually got run out of office because lilly;s father was this big shot guy, and veronica became an outcast too because she supported her father. im not explaining this well, but the major thing of season 1 is of what actually happened to lilly

Anything?

In all seriousness, to go off one of Cinnamon's questions, have you seen Dune? And if so, what is your opinion of it?

And to go off of that, have you seen Inception, Interstellar, Tenet, and/or Arrival and if so what are your opinions of them?

[Edema Rue she/her]

Also, have you read Dune?

Dune was awesome! I watched it for Zendaya, so i was sad that she was only in it for like two minutes, but it was still pretty great. really good plot.

and i have neither seen nor heard of any of those other things.

I have... i liked some parts of it, but for most of it i had no idea what was going on... the movie helped me figure it out... but i do not think i will be reading the rest of them.

1. i have to be honest. i do not like poetry. i do like the "i wandered lonely as a cloud" poem, because i had to memorize it as a kid, but otherwise dude i'm sorry i just don't understand it ;-; if you have any recommendations for beginners, i'd love to hear them :D

2. my basement

3. i'm not totally sure what it means to be active in a fandom lol. but i reeeaaaallly really like the magnus archives and the raven cycle, as well as the owl house (but not to the same degree).

4. hm dee dm. gotta say Taimane Gardener. I am quite good at the ukulele (if i do say so myself) but she makes me wanna quit every time i hear her playing cause i'm never ever gonna be even a fraction as incredible as she is ;-;

5. hmmmm maybe a six. a bit above average.

6. hmmm no tips. i too am procrastinating atm.
