For @pinkr4dio only
Hello @pinkr4dio
Nice to meet you ^^ my name is naomi and i'm a chinese girl who comes from indonesia. I like listening to music and watching comedy videos. I used to like drawing and reading novels, but now i enjoy watching animations and reading comics :]
How about you? Where are you from?
@pinkr4dio
Hi it’s nice to meet you too!! My name is addison but you can just call me addi. I love music too I’d love to hear more about your favorite songs and musicians! I’m also love to read, I’m not much into comics though I mostly just read fiction novels. Also I live in the states.
@pinkr4dio
Nice to meet you too addi! I like listening to music in multiple languages ( English, Chinese, Japanese ), but i mostly listen to Chinese music nowadays. I like English nightcore songs too a lot, especially sad songs :")
I used to like reading fiction novels as well, my fave was The Land of Stories. What about you?
@pinkKite8784
Oh and my favorite Chinese song is " a little bit sweet" by silence wang. It's a cute romance song and you can check it out if you like :]
While for English songs, i like Alec Benjamin, and a lot of other songs
That’s really coolI I’ll be sure to check that song out! I actually have land of stories in my house, everyone in my family has read it except me but maybe I should try it since I’ve heard so many good things. I love the fantasy and sci-fi genre so I read a lot of Brandon Sanderson (not sure you’ve heard of him but he’s an amazing author). I’m also really into sad songs as well and my favorite artist is Radiohead. My favorite song by them is probably Jigsaw Falling Into Place it’s a great sad song and I definitely encourage you to check it out!
Also maybe tell me more about yourself do you have any pets or anything? I have two chinchillas and a dog.
@pinkr4dio
I think you should definitely try to read the land of stories because its really fun to read. These books are expensive in my country and the English vocabulary is quite difficult for me, but i think it should be fine for you because you're a native speaker (?)
Thanks for your song recommendation and I'll definitely check it out.
I am a cat lover although i don't own any any cats. However, i like to befriend stray cats because ive met some that are incredibly friendly, and they help me a lot during my down days :] my family owns a lot of fishes in my home though. My mom doesn't really like cats but she loves fishes. Can you show me a picture of your pets maybe? :D
Yeah I’ll add it to my to be read list and yes I am a native English speaker unfortunately it is the only language I know. I also love cats I had one when I was little but it ran away and my family has just had dogs since then. When I’m older though I’d love to have lots of cats.
Also I tried to add pictures of my pets but it isn’t working.
Do you have any favorite shows or movies?
@pinkr4dio
I really like anime and i've watched a lot of other movies too like Harry Potter, but i can't seem to think of any other movie names rn :")
@pinkr4dio it's okay if you can only speak English. Honestly i can't speak Chinese even though i am Chinese, due to the 30-year-long discrimination in my country. In spite of that, I find Mandarin Chinese fascinating and i want to learn it again one day. I'm also learning German right now , but it's quite difficult. Have you ever tried learning a second language?
Yeah my mother’s side of the family is from Mexico and many of them speak Spanish so I’ve tried to learn it a few times. My dad’s side is German so I’ve also tried to learn that. Neither have been successful because I get busy and it’s hard to keep up without a real tutor but I hope that someday I’ll pick it back up.
@pinkr4dio
Yeah i can relate to you as well, i hope one day you'll have time to learn the language again though. I'm busy with school and it's difficult for me to find the time to learn Chinese and other than that, learning Chinese itself is also very time-consuming :"
But sometimes i just feel too lazy to learn the language. And honestly sometimes i feel like a failure because i can't speak the language :" have you ever felt the same way?
Also i just realised that our time zone difference is 12 hours. Like in here it's 10am so i think it's around 10pm there.
Yeah I’m Mountain Standard time (UTC -7) so it’s about 8:30 right now. Also I do relate a lot to what you said. I’ve lived in the states my whole life but my family came from different cultures that I haven’t really put much thought or effort into. I hope to change that but yeah I also get busy with school and activities and stuff.
@pinkr4dio
What does it feel like to grow up in a multicultural family? And do your parents speak their respective native languages?
Honestly it doesn’t really feel any different. My family has lived in the states for so long that both sides are very American with their culture. My parents are pretty much the same way, you don’t see much difference until my grandparents who came from different countries and speak different languages. I think it’d be really great to visit Germany though and connect with some of my German family that I don’t know much about because of the distance.
Is there anywhere you really want to get to travel to?
@pinkr4dio i want to go to Taiwan, Japan, and also Germany and Switzerland. I kind of want to go to China too actually to see the culture of my ancestors.
Which countries have you travelled to?
I’ve actually never left the U.S unfortunately. It’s been crazy with the pandemic, prices, and passport wait times, and it just hasn’t really been the right time. There’s also so much to see within my own country so I’ve just been traveling to the different states which is amazing on its own. I was promised a trip to Germany for my graduation present, but I guess we’ll see if that actually happens. I hope to travel a lot when I’m older though! I’d love to see morrocco, germany, switzerland, and the philippines and so much more.
Where have you travelled to?
