Rules: Answer the 20 questions and tag 20 amazing followers you would like to get to know better.
Name: Christine
Nicknames: Chris (although only my family/childhood friends call me this), Fi
Zodiac sign: Sagittarius
Height: 5’3"
Orientation: straight
Ethnicity: Caucasian (Italian, Irish, German)
Favorite fruit: I LOVE fruit, my dudes. Apples (but green/semi-sweet ones that are good for baking, I find most red ones too mealy), pears (BOSC PEARS ALL THE WAY, especially when they’re not ripe at all, don’t give me soft pears), peaches, plums, strawberries, bananas, cherries… I’m not one for citrus, but I LOVE me some grapefruit.
Favorite season: Summer or fall. I used to hate winter (just because I’m always cold and I hate being cold), but after my trip to Iceland I have a new appreciation for cold weather and stark winter beauty. Plus, it’s cuddle weather, so, bonus. 🙂
Favorite book series: Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings.
Favorite flower: I looooove flowers. (My last name means flower, so I think I have to? :P) Tulips are my favorite, but I also love sunflowers, freesia, dahlias, and hydrangeas.
Favorite scent: I’m a scent addict – seriously, I have a ridiculous collection of soaps and lotions and candles. I like bergamot, vanilla, sandalwood, patchouli, coconut, floral scents, amber, and musk.
On a more edible note, I love the smell of truffle oil. And bacon. And that first cup of coffee brewing in the morning. Or the smell of pizza wafting from the pizzeria when I walk down the avenue. ♥__♥ (I always have this debate with people – if you lived in an apartment above a pizzeria, would you ever grow tired of the smell? The only answer is no.)
Favorite color: Navy blue.
Favorite animal: I feel like I don’t have one anymore? 😦 This sounds sad, like I hate animals or something lol I DON’T. I have a lot of friends who have, like, an animal they’re obsessed with though. My one friend has owls on everything. And my other friend is obsessed with cats, another with birds, etc. I guess I don’t have an affinity for any animal in particular. When I was little, though, I LOVED horses. Always wanted one, loved reading about them, loved drawing them, etc. Seeing them everywhere in Iceland was a DREAM COME TRUE for my 7-year-old (and 26-year-old) self.
Coffee, tea, or hot cocoa: All three, but coffee the most BY FAR. I can’t live without it. :X
Average sleep hours: 4-5 on a work night, anywhere from 7-14 on a night off lmao.
Cat or dog person? Either. :3 I’ve never owned a pet like that before (I’ve only had birds, hamsters, or fish) so I’d like either one!
Favorite fictional characters: OH MAN SO MANY FANDOMS. It depends on the day, really lmao. Right now I’m catching up on all the DC shows so I’m like BARRY ALLEN IS THE MOST PRECIOUS CINNAMON ROLL IN THE WORLD. (But everyone knows my superhero heart belongs to Daredevil.) Star Wars was my first fandom growing up (I lost my first tooth watching Return of the Jedi at age 7) and it occupies a massive space in my heart to this day. ♥ Old school faves are Leia and Luke, obvs, new school fave is Poe Dameron (hugely underrated, thank God he got his own comic book series because good Poe merch is hard to come by). Lord of the Rings was honestly my entire life in high school, to the point where I went to school with my hair braided like an Elf (I was not popular LMAO). Fave characters are Faramir, Boromir, Arwen, and the entire Fellowship, tbh. And of course, Harry Potter (my entire childhood, my entire adolescence. Star Wars may have come first, but I think it was Harry Potter that had the biggest influence on my growing up). Sirius Black and Remus Lupin are the forever faves. Aaaaand last but not least, let’s throw in someone from Game of Thrones/ASoIaF – SER DAVOS! (Also hugely underrated, he’s great.) WAIT NO, I lied, I wasn’t finished. Can’t overlook Lady Mary Crawley of Downton Abbey (and of course, sassy Cousin Violet the Dowager).
WHEW, that’s definitely not everyone lmao (because lord knows I can’t just casually like something, I have to make my entire existence revolve around it) but that’s enough for one day lmao.
Number of blankets you sleep with: NOT. ENOUGH. I cannot emphasize to you enough how much I am always cold (also the insulation in my room is v. poor and my bed is right next to a drafty window). Right now I have flannel sheets, a fleece blanket, a sherpa blanket, a wool blanket, and a comforter. I I also usually sleep with a fleece or a robe on. And if my window is really drafty, I wrap a sweater around my head lmao.
Dream trip: Going back to Iceland (preferably with a one-way ticket
♥).
Blog created: Is there a place to look this up? lmao I’m pretty sure I created this blog sometime in 2012 (late summer/early fall?)
Number of followers: WAY more than I ever thought I’d get lmao ;_;
♥. Seriously, every day I’m both shocked and grateful for the number of people who follow and appreciate my silly gameplay posts. Thank you!
uhhhhhh idk who to tag since I think a lot of people either did this already or have already been tagged, so feel free to do it if you want! Say I tagged you so I can read your answers 😀 😀
