Who I am
Who are you is such a loaded question. What is anyone really supposed to say to that? Maybe you'll mention your job or your family. Maybe your hobbies find a way into the conversation or even your pets. Does that really answer the question?
I don't know how to answer. I don't know who I am or what my identity is.
I can't give you a straight answer to who I am.
Instead of that, will you accept clues instead?
Maybe you'll know me by the end...
Favourites
My favourite...
Colour: Light purple in general but blue/gray to wear
Cuisine: Just asian food - malaysian, japanese, korean, bengali, afghani.
Character dynamics: Downbad reformed man x whoever he was inspired by. To be clear, I don't want him to change for them and I don't want him to be rewarded with romance. He changes because he realises he isn't who he wants to be and the other person accepts his change and who he is and meets him where he is and they grow together.
(Also) Character dynamics: "We argue because we love each other but never in a way that hurts each other" and "Two-sided coin"
Tropes: secret identities, childhood friends to lovers, I'd do anything for you but I'll deny it if anyone asks, rivals to lovers
Childhood memory: hide and seek with the cousins on a rainy day
Way to learn: Write, write, write for theory because I cannot just listen or practical application
Love language: It used to be physical affection but now it's quality time.
Sounds: Wind chimes, rain and waves
Best feeling: When something just clicks and you know it, or when you really get someone or they get you
Natural wonder or phenomenon: Northern lights
Names: Laura
Nostalgia food: chocolate cake with chocolate custard
Ice cream flavour: salted caramel or bubblegum or honeycomb

Advice

Firsts
For one whole year, I tried doing at least 1 new thing per week. Sometimes it didn't even have to be new new just something I hadn't done in a while.
It was really fun and got me out of my rut of doing nothing. In October, I'm going to try and go out at least 3x a week and explore my new city.
I'll let you know what I do!
