• i've been making art again! i paint and i draw and i tattoo myself and others now
• music -- i listen to basically everything from weird ambient to rock to metal to classical to country to weird shit i find in the depths of soundcloud to dnb, etc etc some artists i've enjoyed somewhat recently are deftones, ana caprix, elysia crampton, boards of canada, lana del rey, charli xcx, machine girl, XI, aphex twin, jeremy soule, daft punk, crystal castles, burial, spiritbox, 808 state, hoodlum priest, new order, pop up!, schoolboy q, sade
• poetry -- i guess this is more reading but i love paradise lost by milton, Shelley is my favorite poet and my favorite poem is his Ode to the West Wind, and I also like Edna St Vincent Millay and Keats/Wordsworth/etc etc the romantics and i also loved Beastiary by Donika Kelley and I love Sappho
• writing poetry -- i used to do this a lot but unfortunetly it's something i tend to do when i'm depressed so they're usually depressing and i have not written much lately except for i wrote a few poems this week so that's something? but idk I have been writitng poetry on and off since the end of middle school and even when i was a kid, maybe ill make a lil site on here for it.
• journalling -- on here sometimes but i mostly journal in my real physical one again now, i'm on journal #43, I started in 3rd grade
• sometimes i sew and i'm really interested in historical fashion
• i like history
• skiing, hiking, basking in the sun or snow
• learning about physics
• i don't watch much tv anymore but my favorite shows that i have watched are Nana, Lost, and Rick and Morty
• i also don't watch too many movies but some of my favorites are 2001 a space odyssey, valerian, redline, and interstellar

that's mostly it, i am just trying to live to the best of my abilites and be compassionate, kind, and grateful. i want to enjoy my time here and i want to create something because i am an artist
