- Kids once remarked that my voice sounded like a calm announcer in an airport reading out boarding times, that it was soothing and even. Not always do I sound like that, but I do like when people say my voice is soft and sing-song.
- My hair. It’s thick but not too thick (I haven’t broken a brush on it in over a decade), it’s a dark brown that’s nearly black, with just the hint of red in the light, it curls in fat ringlets and classic waves, and now that I have it in my summer bob cut it bounces around my face.
- I’m a self-admitted flake and I forget everyday shit all the time, but when it comes to facts and stories and other shit I have a very good memory. It made school very easy. Helps with writing and fandom and other stuff too, 😉
- Tied into that, I’ve always been a quick reader. Helps to grow up a bookworm, but I’d devour my favorite series in short sittings and have never been intimidated by thick books. (Personally boring topics, especially when mired in dry prose, that’s another thing. Have I mentioned my dislike of Kate Chopin?) There’s also a Tolkien quote about escapism and coping mechanisms and thank goodness for favorite books on hand to survive emotional upheavals.
- I’m not an aggressive person, I don’t pick fights with people. Okay, I’m a doormat and at my most confrontational am only passive-aggressive. But I don’t like drama, and I don’t send hate, and my grudges or dislike against another person is rare and usually not easy to do. I give people the benefit of doubt (too gullible).
