Bio
I struggle with social anxiety and major depression.
Things to know about me:
1. I like metal. My favorite band is Metallica.
2. I like to read/write poetry, short stories, and books.
3. I'm aromantic.
4. I believe in a supreme being, but I don't think it comes in the form of organized religion. However, I am accepting of anyone no matter what their belief is.
5. My favorite color is red.
6. I prefer sherbert over ice cream, but my favorite ice cream is Neopolitan.
7. My favorite age in history is the Victorian Era, but I would never want to live there because of the inequality I would have to face as a female.
8. I don't even know the person reading this, but I love them.
9. I often experience NREM dreaming, which is a bit of a rarity. I have experienced 5 lucid dreams. I dream every single night, with few exceptions, keep up a dream journal, and aspire to become a more committed lucid dreamer. Most nights, I have one stimuli-heavy, realistic dream and one NREM dream that's very breif and surreal. I am trying to improve my memory of dreams as I usually forget them within an hour, unfortunately. (I'm a bit obsessed with dream psychology)
10. I like memes.

Hopefully my feed will be a source of serenity and inspiration for you. . .I'll try to update it every day!

...See more One of the threads on this website reminded me of my bucket list. I wanted to share it in case someone could be helped from it. I'm sorry if this thread is annoying. It's a bit long. Most of these are stolen from Tumblr posts or other miscellaneous websites. There is a reason to live list and a bucket list: here is the difference Reason to live: Aesthetics and emotions, things that are unrealistic but could happen and make life worth it, things that would be cool but honestly aren't worth the time for me Bucket List: Things I genuinely want to do before I die Without further ado, here's the list Reasons Not to Die Your favorite artist/band https://www.eater.com/2019/2/26/18241241/guy-fieri-chicken-tenders-restaurant-chicken-guy This awesome restaurant All the sunsets to experience Think of proving people wrong with success Ice cream on a hot day We might colonize the earth. Who knows, in your lifetime you could have the chance to go on another planet Experiencing scientific discoveries Your favorite movie Food Going into a building on a really cold day Relaxing showers after a long day Lying on the grass and looking at the clouds Trampolines The feeling of looking at loud rain through your window as youre dry Hot chocolate Sleeping in for hours Being stupid in public because you can Youll get to see the next generations of nursing homes. Imagine nursing homes filled with mumble rap, video games, people tattooed. . .New meme formats Snow Rainbows Light drizzles on a summer day New Pokemon in a Pokemon game Your Animal Crossing town You could beat the record in Tetris, Snake, or any other similar game You could beat a world record In the future society will probably do something REALLY stupid, and youll get to make fun of it. (i.e flat earthers) Getting pranked by people Pulling pranks on people Deep conversations Idle gossip on a summer night If you get to be 100, you can illegally play with Legos (the age on the box is for ages 4-100, although on some sets its labeled as 4+) Saving lives by donating blood One day, your smile will be genuine You can participate in psychological experiments in the like - for science! You can make your own national holiday and publicize it https://www.nationaldayarchives.com/register-national-day/ Witness all the weird trends - you can make fun of them! Snowboarding, surfing, riding a unicycle. . .all the awesome as heck hobbies you can learn Learning how to play a weird, obscure instrument and putting on shows (https://www.classicfm.com/discover-music/latest/weirdest-musical-instruments/) You could be responsible for a weird trend Someone might invent a new flavor of ice cream Bucket List Visit every continent. Antartica counts. Go to a school and pretend to be a substitute teacher. See the Northern lights. See the Grand Canyon. Go scuba diving. Go on Safari. Sleep under the stars. Visit Rome. See the Great Barrier Reef. Go on a humanitarian trip. Randomly donating $1,000 of cash to Youtubers or Twitch streamers while theyre streaming to see their reaction Tipping a random waiter/waitress with $1,000 Going to Mount Fuji Learn a foreign language Go whale watching Go to Paris Go white-water rafting See the Amazon Rainforest Go to Yellowstone National Park Going to one of the worlds best restaurants Going on a round trip to every state in the U.S Being an extra in a movie Write my name in wet cement Stay up from sunrise to sunset Carry an empty briefcase, go on the street, hand it to a random stranger, and say You know what to do. Walk away and dont reply to anything the stranger says. Text a random stranger saying I hid the body in your backyard. I presume you know what to do? Dont respond to the strangers texts. Propose to a stranger when he/she is with his/her family. Randomly choose a person in a public place and pretend to be long lost twins. Bonus points if you look nothing alike. Drop a plastic knife in a public place. If someone picks it up, scream PLEASE DONT KILL ME HAVE MERCY ON ME NO In an elevator, stand stiffly and face the person in the elevator. In a demonic voice, say, You are my next target. I shall leave this shell and possess yours. Please prepare yourself for the next five minutes you have left. stand still and dont do anything after that. Follow someone for long distances and when they turn around to say Do not look at me, I am innocent. I hope this helps someone
