Introduction
Jun. 29th, 2018 11:23 amSo, this post is sort of based on the introductions and surveys that ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
mirrorofsmoke did on their journal. I just wanted to give some information about myself, since we are all friends here. :)
The Basics
I'm female, youngish, slender with light brown hair that reaches mid-back and greenish hazel eyes.
My favourite colour was red for a long time but now I find I prefer green, though earth tones are very comforting.
I love reading, I like to bike and rollerblade, I find science and math interesting and I just got a personal trainer at the gym.
More About Me
As far as I know, I am neurotypical, though I tend to think I'm nuts sometimes :p I get anxious sometimes and I have a hard time letting things go. Things that seem inconsequential to most people will sometimes stay in my brain a lot longer than intended and I'll obsess over them, even if there was no hidden meaning to what the other person said.
I tend to fidget a lot, sitting still is hard for me, especially when I'm bored, which tends to happen easily. I actually had a co-worker ask me if I'd ever been tested for ADHD, which I have not. To my knowledge, I'm just quirky, I don't feel like I need meds.
I also tend to find social cues confusing. It seems like everyone else has such an easy time determining when someone is joking, or how to joke back, and I always feel very lost. I tend to be awkward in my interactions with people, though I find it's not quite as bad online. (I do still worry that I come across as juvenile, weird or unintelligent though.)
I like to colour, though I wish the "adult" books didn't have so many tiny spaces. I also tend to get excited over pretty things or fluffy things (like bunnies or really anything fuzzy). I had someone ask me if I was a Little (which caused my "distressed" post earlier this month) but I don't think I am. I don't feel like I have separate parts of me or a specific head space where I want to be younger than I am, it's just all part of me and sometimes I'm more excitable, the same way sometimes I am sad. (Not gonna lie though, if you told me I could have something like inysabetwordsmith's Love is for Children series, I'd totally go for that. Somewhere to just relax and be able to play without any expectations or labels.) I don't want to be younger, I just want to chill sometimes and being called "childish" because I'm not like every other adult sucks.
This next bit is more personal, and possibly PG13+ in nature, so you can skip this part if you want to.

Childhood stuff
My parents divorced when I was 4 years old. I grew up with my mom and saw my dad most weekends. I have a younger sister. We get along much better now but the teenage years were difficult for us, I think mainly due to the fact that we are very different people and she has never had a great grasp on her temper or feelings.
And that's it for my long giant post about my life. Feel free to leave comments if you have any questions, I like getting to know people better. :)
