hi!! this is stolen, feel free to steal it/ read if youre interested !!

The "35 Questions" from Marcel Proust (1871-1921)

:
:
1) WHAT IS YOUR IDEA OF PERFECT HAPPINESS?
i think honestly being able to live outside of capitalism with my partner and my cats lol its kind of cliche but im so tired of constantly thinking about money and my employment

2) WHAT IS YOUR GREATEST FEAR?
i honestly think never being able to continue my education, ive been graduated from high school for almost two full years and im terrified of going the rest of my life without being at least somewhat involved in academia; i dont think i really know who i am outside of it still

3) WHAT TRAIT DO YOU MOST DEPLORE IN YOURSELF?
i am absolutely horrid with confrontation and procrastination, and avoidance, lol might not be in the right mood to be listing those :p

4) WHAT TRAIT DO YOU MOST DEPLORE IN OTHER PEOPLE?
selfishness/greed

5) WHAT LIVING PERSON DO YOU MOST ADMIRE?
lol im pretty sure that would be taylor swift

6) WHAT IS YOUR GREATEST EXTRAVAGANCE?
probably spending money on books, if i ever have the opportunity to, i will. although i usually have to live pretty frugally, what with learning how to survive and pay rent at the same time in 2022, so the most i splurge on is uber eats for dinner 

7) WHAT IS YOUR CURRENT STATE OF MIND?
i dont... think... very great? ive been very stuck for a while

8) WHAT DO YOU CONSIDER THE MOST OVERRATED VIRTUE?
i dont really have an answer right now 

9) ON WHAT OCCASION DO YOU LIE?
i try not to, but i started when i was a kid and its hard to shake off the instinct. i usually lie to try and protect another person, but it almost always falls flat. im not good at lying lol

10) WHAT DO YOU MOST DISLIKE ABOUT YOUR APPEARANCE?
im trying very hard to unlearn it, but i dont particularly like being fat. ive always been chubby, but ive gained more weight over the course of the pandemic. again, trying to demolish the part of my brain that tells me fat = bad.

11) WHAT LIVING PERSON DO YOU MOST DESPISE?
brendon urie

12) WHAT IS THE QUALITY YOU LIKE MOST IN A MAN?
i dont like men

13) WHAT IS THE QUALITY YOU LIKE MOST IN A WOMAN?
everything. women / nb people are perfect

14) WHICH WORDS OR PHRASES DO YOU MOST OVERUSE?
probably "like" tbh. or "sorry" lol

15) WHAT OR WHO IS THE GREATEST LOVE OF YOUR LIFE?
My partner; and our three cats ;p

16) WHEN AND WHERE WERE YOU HAPPIEST?
in school, i played cello in the orchestra for 6 years. the last two, i performed in the orchestra pit for the school musicals. i think those were my happiest/proudest moments

17) WHICH TALENT WOULD YOU MOST LIKE TO HAVE
i would love to be able to draw people. i can draw, sure, but never people. it sucks when all i want is to replicate the image i can perfectly see in my head but it just never translates. im somewhat decent with references, and i can draw clothes, but never faces :(
18) IF YOU COULD CHANGE ONE THING ABOUT YOURSELF, WHAT WOULD IT BE?
i think my submissiveness, in the sense that i dont know how to feel/get angry. not that i want to be angry all the time, but it feels like a locked box in my head that i have zero access to

19) WHAT DO YOU CONSIDER YOUR GREATEST ACHIEVEMENT?
moving out of my parents house and being (mostly) financially independent at age 19 during a global pandemic. i think some people still believe this is the expected route to take, but i didnt think it was possible to me, yet here i sit in my apartment filling out this questionnaire

20) IF YOU WERE TO DIE AND COME BACK AS A PERSON OR A THING, WHAT WOULD IT BE?
my cat. hes living the best life

21) WHERE WOULD YOU MOST LIKE TO LIVE?
anywhere outside of my home state. ive never moved outside of the same 25 mile radius, and its definitely time for a change. but i gotta take it one step at a time

22) WHAT IS YOUR MOST TREASURED POSSESSION?
probably my cello; though ive mistreated it for the last two years, ive been too depressed to play since my senior year got cut short

23) WHAT DO YOU REGARD AS THE LOWEST DEPTH OF MISERY?
through personal experience, addiction + mental illness

24) WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE OCCUPATION?
reading/writing, or playing video games, or just chilling. i really, really like to chill

25) WHAT IS YOUR MOST MARKED CHARACTERISTIC?
when i was a teenager it was recklessness i would say; i honestly dont know now. being a high school graduate not in college and largely isolated from my friends/not making new friends, i dont really know what people think of me

26) WHAT DO YOU MOST VALUE IN YOUR FRIENDS?
understanding, and patience for sure

27) WHO ARE YOUR FAVORITE WRITERS?
currently, donna tartt. i know the public opinion on her books are generally pretty divided, but i really enjoy them and im craving more of that vibe

28) WHO IS YOUR FAVORITE HERO OF FICTION?
i think this answer is fueled by nostalgia, but the first character that came to mind was katniss everdeen, so im sticking with it. i named my cat after her when i was 9, i modeled my personality after her, and i still appreciate her character and her story as an adult

29) WHICH HISTORICAL FIGURE DO YOU MOST IDENTIFY WITH?
hmmm. not sure i have an answer on this one.

30) WHO ARE YOUR HEROES IN REAL LIFE?
my mom.

31) WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE NAMES?
well, i cant decide what to name myself after making a poor decision at the age of 13 when renaming myself, so im not really the best judge of names, but ive always loved the name olivia

32) WHAT IS IT THAT YOU MOST DISLIKE?
gender

33) WHAT IS YOUR GREATEST REGRET?
many, many decisions i made when i was younger. and not being able to personally prevent a pandemic from happening, because that really fucked me over

34) HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO DIE?
in my sleep, or at the very least quickly. it seems like too much to ask for no pain, but at least make it quick lol

35) WHAT IS YOUR MOTTO?
i dunno
