List five things you do for fun.
- Getting glam. I love looking good. I truly love it; having a “everything” shower, skincare, makeup, hair and nails. Have to smell nice too. There’s something about getting ready everyday, putting on makeup and beautifying oneself that is sooo fun. For me its very much living art, however conceited and self interested that sounds. I accept its the rent women have to pay on this earth…game, set and matched. And that’s on self confidence.
- Going for walks. Going for walks is religious at this point. It makes me feel so good. There’s something about nature that is so humbling and grounding. Just peaceful. Demands nothing. Exists without my input. God.
- Listening to music; reminds me of who i am at my core. Silly, slightly melancholic, girly, random. Lets your soul speak.
- Colouring: silly, yes. Fun, also yes. It is what it is.
- Learning. Yeah, I’m nosey. I love to learn about how people around the world live. Not to approve or disapprove but to witness as much of the human experience as possible. I genuinely love speaking to old people for this reason. Some knowledge cannot be packaged and sold by a prestigious university. Some knowledge is simple passed down. From one fat auntie to a young girl coming-of-age.
