adding glorious exploits to my tbr ;)
It's been pretty interesting so far! Some things are a little undercooked maybe, but impressive debut
Really like the irish vernacular choice lol
Fave album atm? And do you like Fontaines D.C?
Probs The Queen is dead (The smiths)
I have listened to some of their stuff relatively recently but not much, so if you have suggestions drop them in my inbox
Have you watched the anime 'Free!'? and Free! The Final Stroke films? or the prequel 'High Speed! Free! Starting Days!'? xD
I haven't actually lol I've never been huge on sports anime (watched some tho) but also it seems so full of fanservice fjsjdjs my sis loves it tho (think she has watched it twice or thrice)
Have you read anything by Natsuko Imamura?
They're the author of the woman in the purple skirt right? I haven't yet. I haven't branched out much in modern JP lit yet. Besides Murakami (Haruki, who I am not a big fan of), I've read some Natsuo Kirino, Seicho Matsumoto, Sayaka Murata and Yoko Ogawa mainly, but I still have to read Kawakami for example.
Have dabbled a bit more in classic lit
Cambia icona e header, non mi piacciono e il bianco e nero non ci sta bene
No
What did you get for your birthday?
A baroque pearl ring from my parents and then either books/manga (glorious exploits and collected writing by bobby sands; volumes 2-6 of A Bride's Story) or gift cards to get myself some
belated happy birthday❣ 💐
Thank u!!
Happy birthday!
Thank you!
Do you usually go to matches?
football or tennis? But these days nope, they’re not really that close to home and my working hours are too wonky to plan anything rn (especially since I usually get in at 7:30 in the morning lol)
Usually go to swimming comps, am saving for Euros26 and Worlds27 rn
do you travel alone?
Usually with a friend, and we split room costs (which definitely helps a lot lol)
I usually travel alone if I’m on a day trip maybe or in Italy ig
X's translation tool translates everything from Italian wrong, it got worse I think
Fjsjdjss I’m sorry
I should go back to tweeting in English maybe lol
What was your latest read?
Martyr! by Kaveh Akbar which unfortunately really didn’t work for me lol
currently reading Rouge by Mona Awad, but I started it ystd so I’m just 100 pages in
Are you planning a trip?
Kinda, I’m still deciding how much I want to hurt myself (money) but I have a couple of options on the table I’m really excited about
Have you ever had a movie buff phase?
Nope. I go through times in which I actually watch movies and maybe go back to watch whatever I’ve missed in the past 3 years, but I honestly don’t have that interest for technical aspects of the medium that I have for, say, literature
Do you like mythology?
Yep
