HIYA FRIENDS

1) Confession: i love eating raw white button mushrooms sliced with olive oil and salt and pepper but my housemates call me a heathen ITS SO GOOD THO IT TASTES SO BUTTERY AND YUMMY!!!!! THE SLIGHT CRUNCH OF THE MUSHROOM? THE FULLNESS OF THE OLIVE OIL? DELICIOUS

2) I never understood meal prepping until someone explained it to me last week but then I realized I didn’t understand bc I already do meal prep except I also feed my housemates so the meal prep disappears in one night

3) i’m sorry you can tell i’m hungry right now all of these are gonna be about food Anyways i watched a youtube video and this guy ate his hard boiled egg with mayonnaise (kewpie) and i tried it. Again, my housemates call me a heathen but it is So Good 10/10 would recommend

4) OK IM TRYING TO RESIST POSTING MORE FOOD ONES RIGHT AFTER EACH OTHER I’m notorious for staying in fandoms for p long amts of time Eg. Hetalia ~3 yrs, Kagepro ~3 yrs, GDA/OCs ~3 yrs, TKRB ~5 yrs

5) Is gonna sound sappy but i love when people say my name LIKE YES HI THATS ME I EXIST I LOVE U WHAT DO U NEED FRIEND

BOTH MY IRL AND BURG well, i’ve been going by burg for so long it Is my second name

5) (cont) IT ALSO MAKES ME REALLY HAPPY BC I LOVE MY NAMES my parents put a lot of thought into it and then as I started talking to more people and made more friends online, Burg just kind of slipped off the tongue. I actually didn’t make it!!! It means so much to me

6) Ok back to food. My parents never actually let me cook as a kid, but I still loved cooking as a concept so when I left for college I went HAM. OH? MY HOUSEMATES DONT LIKE TO COOK BUT THEY DO LIKE TO EAT? HOW ABOUT..... I COOK IN BULK SO WE CAN ALL EAT.... It is cheaper too

7) Y’all are gonna get whiplash from this Whenever i’m any kind of intoxicated my voice gets higher and I cant control it no matter what I do JUST IN CASE YALL EVER VC W ME ON THE WEEKENDS

8) IVE BEEN DRAWING FOR HALF MY LIFE NOW I JUST REALIZED ITS BEEN A HOT MINUTE AYYYYYYYYYY I hope baby me is happy with how far we’ve come

9) If you wanna get a feel for what kind of student I am, let me tell you I haven’t missed a single lecture this qtr and one of them is a class i’m not even enrolled in (it’s a class that I already took but need a refresher for next qtr which is the next part of the series)

10) I’m pretty proud of my legs!! Like i’m v proud of how strong they are!!!!! Back when I was on the swim team, my arms were actually below average weak (i was always the slowest when doing arm drills) but I was the fastest kicker so it worked out in the end

11) CONFESSION: This is gonna b sappy but I’ve only known IDV for like what, 8 months, but it already has such a special place in my heart because not only has it introduced me to so many new friends, but it also helped me reconnect w and get closer to long time friends too

12) SCREW IT IM GOING FULL SAPPY now that im older I also get really

whenever someone tells me I remind them of my mom bc she is the sweetest most kind hearted person I know— so much so that I think it skirts naïvety at times— but sometimes being too jaded is also tiring

13) OK OK OK THATS A LOT OF SAPPY I HAVE BEEN FED NOW DID YOU KNOW MY FINGERS CAN BEND BACKWARDS PRETTY FAR. MY LEFT INDEX FINGER THE MOST SO. IVE BEEN TRAINING IT TO GO 90 DEGREES NOW

14) I CANT DRINK PLAIN WATER UNLESS ITS AT A RESTAURANT so i have like so many bottles of drink flavorings and fresh lemons so i don’t get completely dehydrated

15) I cry when my plants die :’(( BUT. IVE BEEN A LOT BETTER ABOUT TAKING CARE OF THEM AND I HAVENT HAD ANY DIE ON ME RECENTLY (I say as I am a plant science student)

16) I LOVE WORKING W PLANTS just seeing them grow and develop makes me happy!! And to have been a part of its life and to have helped it grow really makes me feel fulfilled (EATING UR OWN VEGETABLES AND FRUITS IS SO

)

17) Don’t look at me I’m a city burg through and through I’m a fake plant sciences major

18) ANYWAYS APPARENTLY MY FIRST WORD WAS “No” my mom was trying to feed me some spinach baby food but i hated that one the most so i just turned my head and said “no” (rip to my parents who kept trying to get me to say mommy and daddy)

19) I SIMULTANEOUSLY HAVE REALLY GOOD AND REALLY BAD MEMORY like i can’t even remember what i’ve done other than idv for the past week but if you ask me to bring up a specific tsuruichi pic from a specific tsuruichi artist from some specific year i got u

20) speaking of tsuruichi, do you know. how many doujins I have of them. it’s a lot. In the hundreds I might say. and I may or may not have used f*nancial a*d to buy some of them in favor of some meals back then. Worth it.

21) THE LAST CONFESSION WERE SOME OF MY DARKEST YET HAPPIEST TIMES now me and my housemates have food stamps and we pool our funds together monthly while I cook for them so we don’t have to worry about our next meals I wuv them so much and I want them to eat well

22) i never ate peanut butter jelly in me childhood but now? The convenience? The simple deliciousness? Absolutely stunning I am in its debt. It has saved me. IM SORRY A LOT OF THESE ARE ABOUT FOOD I CAMT HELP IT

23) GOOD MORNING EVERYONE did you know i was actually lukewarm on Eli Clark when i first met him, but Epi who knows my tastes better than myself was just like “So. Eli. You like him huh” and i was like “No? [turns back to Eli] oh wait oh Fuck”

24) I don’t know how why or when I picked up this habit but as long as I can remember doing digital art, I’ve always started by drawing the eyes. NOW I AT LEAST THUMBNAIL BEFORE HAND TOO INSTEAD OF GOING FINAL FIRST DRAFT but i always still start w the eyes

25) Ever since walking in on my older cousins watching Mirrors as a child, I’ve always been afraid of mirrors and like, get really uncomfortable sleeping in front of them

26) IN THE SAME VEIN, I USED TO BE SCARED OF THE DARK AND SLEPT WITH A NIGHTLIGHT well what happened? After college I became too exhausted every time I went to bed that I began to give No Shits and just passed out COME ON YOU HOT ASS DEMONS, TAKE ME

27) MY BIRTHDATE ONLY HAS 1s AND 9s AND I WAS ALSO BORN AT 9PM (9:13 to be exact IF ONLY I WAS BORN TWO MINUTES EARLIER IT WOULDVE BEEN COMPLETE)

28) I DONT KNOW HOW BUT IDV ARTISTS INSPIRE ME SO MUCH TO DRAW HANDS I love drawing hands more than ever even tho i still think they look wonky, when they turn out well im just like

29) When it comes to sketching/lining, I actually like drawing hair the most!!!!!!!!! However, when we get to the coloring, I actually like doing the face/skin

30) OH YEAH I was also deathly afraid of holding/using knives until I started cooking more frequently and now my knifework isn’t too shoddy if i do say so myself!

31) Sometimes I get insecure of my laugh bc I know it’s loud and everything but I’ve also come to love it bc ppl have told me it’s contagious and whenever i’m laughing, they’re laughing too and it makes me happy when other people are happy too :’)

32) BEFORE TKRB I HAD THE HARDEST TIME DRAWING BANGS SWEEPING TO THE CHARACTER’S RIGHT (i could only draw fringes sweeping left bc that’s how my wrist worked) BUT THEN ICHIGO HITOFURI HAPPENED AND I EVOLVED

33) I feel like my art has been in a strange transition period/purgatory for the past few years bc I’ve always wanted to draw them sexies but I defaulted to a cute squishy style for like 4 years (WHICH I STILL LOVE) and i’ve been trying to switch to more semi-realistic sexy since

33)(cont) WHILE I STILL FEEL LIKE IM IN THE PROCESS OF PRACTICING, I CANT DRAW CUTE LIKE I USED TO ANYMORE it’s like when i’m learning new IDV characters. When i start learning the new one, the proficiency i held over the old gets thrown into a vault until i’m satisfied w the new

34) Fun story: my great grandma rly liked me back when she was alive and when i was a baby. She said I reminded her of her first grandchild. Apparently we both liked to tiptoe around the house, talked in a similar roundabout way, and were the same kind of mischievous

34) (cont) Said grandchild (my mom’s older sibling) unfortunately died from scarlet fever before my mom was even born. So here’s the interesting part. I was only hospitalized like. Twice in my life— once for asthma— but the other.... for scarlet fever

35) THAT BEING SAID, my memory actually goes back really far!!! My earliest memory is being held by my great grandma, looking at the ceiling in a warm-lit room, and then my baby hand comes into view and i think the baby equivalent of wtf bc wtf is a hand

36) When we went to Japan, my dad was DYIN to try wagyu and kobe beef. So we splurged on Legit All-You-Can-Eat A5 wagyu.

Yknow the whole horror story about someone eating something so good that nothing will ever amount to it and they find their life has no more meaning?

36) (cont) Well, I thought it was a whole load of baloney until that.

I just can’t eat steak anymore. Nothing will ever be as good as that A5 wagyu and kobe so why even bother

37) So apparently I have a big case of baby face and until recently I was just like “wtf do i really look that baby?” but now i enjoy the reactions i get from people when someone asks “Are you in highschool” and i just say Oh- no i’m a Uni Upperclassman

38) I once lost in a spelling bee because i forgot the H in spaghetti

39) We got my puppy Smiley when I was around 8-9 at a swap meet for real dirt cheap and I still remember that I named her “Smiley” bc I thought she was smiling to be coming home with us (it was actually me who couldn’t stop smiling) :’) I still miss her so much

40) My parents say that i walk like a duck bc they my feet point slightly outwards when I walk, BUT I SWEAR THEYRE PARALLEL

41) I actually don’t feel strongly about any particular flower on my own

All my favorite flowers are associated with a character I like(d) for example: Chrysanthemums- Kiku, Hydrangea and Gentians- Tsurumaru, Strawberry and Forget me nots- Ichigo, Daffodil- Tsumugi

42) WHEN I WAS IN SWIM I NEVER PUT ON SUNSCREEN BUT I NEVER GOT A SINGLE SUNBURN oh man i was even swimming at the peak of noon you should’ve seen my tan lines

43) One of my most comfortable positions is sitting criss-cross applesauce and then folding my upper body over (perfect for compact napping!)

44) I used to play trumpet in the marching band!!! My first music instructor when i first started playing (and was kinda struggling) was just like “uhm... sweetie u seem more like a flute player” and i just went “nah” so that’s how I learned how to play the trumpet

44) (cont) she probably tried to get me to play the flute based on typecasting bc i’m always more quiet and shy in new situations but y’all know how i really am so two years later she rescinded the above statement

45) SOME OF MY SONGS IN MY PLAYLIST IVE BEEN LISTENING TO SINCE LIKE, 9TH GRADE (Teksy’s Justice Breaker still slaps so hard)

46) Since it IS girl scout cookie season LEMME TELL U, THANKS A LOTS SOAKED IN MILK FOR LIKE 15-20 SECONDS IS THE GREATEST DELICACY

47) confession: i can only write <400 word drabbles IDK WHY i think it’s because my brains has been wired to think in single picturesque scenes with little dialogue or connection between scenes BUT I DO WANNA TRY WRITING SOMETHING LONGER ONE DAY

48) DISCLAIMER: NO I AM NOT INTO VORE. EATING THINGS IN RP TEXT FORMAT IS ONE OF MY FORMS OF AFFECTION the explanation n context i offer: Dessert gijinka rp group i was in years and years ago

49) For every long-lasting fandom I was/am in I always have a long-lasting otp to go with it. IT’S NOT INTENTIONAL IT JUST HAPPENS. SOME PAIRING GRABS ME BY THE DICK AND ALL OF A SUDDEN IM IN HELL FOR 3+ YEARS

50) I HAVE A FEW PLANTS IM CARING FOR RN BUT MY PRIDE AND JOY IS THIS DEVIL’S IVY they’re my sweet bby and they’re just starting to push new growth for the coming spring season i needa find a higher place to put them so their leaves can spread out

51) I also have a pretty sensitive nose which i most definitely got from my mom bc my dad’s sense of taste and smell have long since shriveled up and died

52) IVE HAD THREE FAVORITE COLORS IN MY LIFE my first was lavender, then it was light green, and now it’s been turquoise/teal TBH when i was a kid everyone had a favorite color so i just picked one too and idk if i actually liked lavender when i did but i still liked it anyways

53) ALSO when i was a kid i used to tap dance and do ballet and piano but i never continued any of those past kindergarten so here i am,

54) IVE ALWAYS WANTED TO LEARN HOW TO CLIMB A TREE BUT ALAS

55) Technically i learned how to drive a tractor before i learned how to drive a car

56) One of my supervisors at my arboretum internship makes it a challenge to get me into a laughing fit every week. He just tells a really bad joke and i lose my marbles over how clever and bad it is and then he’s always like “YES got em again”

57) my friends say i make a certain face when i’m concentrating on something like solving a problem or just thinking very hard I DONT KNOW WHAT FACE IT IS BUT APPARENTLY ITS CONSISTENT

58) Sometimes i get the craving for canned tuna and just eat it straight out of the can (OCCASIONALLY MIXED W SEASONING AND TOPPED W/ CHEESE MAYONNAISE AND/OR AVOCADO AND TOASTED IN THE TOASTER OVEN but some days like today i just crack open the lid and eat it w a fork)

59) I started eating in the order of “save the best for last” when i was a kid because of Lucky Star

60) SPEAKING OF DOING THINGS did u know i’m an eligible organ donor because of angel beats? when i first watched it, i vowed when i turn of age, i’d register for it despite my parents telling me not to (they think being an organ donor is a free pass to have your organs harvested)

61) OH YEAH i also started keeping a recipe book because of sweetness and lightning! If you ever want one of my recipes just hmu i’ll take pics for ya!!!

62) Hahahaha i just remembered i swallowed a magnet when i was a kid. I DONT THINK ITS IN ME ANYMORE BUT IT WAS P FUNNY it was like, one of those spherical magnets and my cousin had a long straw-like tube and i thought it would be a cool to see if i could suck up the magnet

62) (cont.) Yknow when you drink boba and there’s a clump of it or it gets stuck in the straw so you suck really hard? and then as soon as it just gets a little bit unstuck it shoots right to the back of your throat and you almost choke? yeah.

63) I FINISHED ALL OF NARUTO AND NARUTO AND SHIPPUDEN BC OF MY DAD he saw me watching an episode on cartoon network and he got hooked so when i was a kid, after we got caught up to the dub and then sub, every thursday he would come home and we would watch the newest ep together!

64) Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess is my favorite LOZ game!!! My dad came home one day with the game and a 400+ page walkthrough he printed at his work and we played it together, not even bothering to figure out the puzzles on our own WE DIDNT EVEN FINISH IT

BACK ON GHE GRIND 65) it takes my brain 30 min to boot up after waking up so i always set at least 3 alarms 45 minutes all going to be snoozed on a 9 minute timer before i have to actually WaKe Up

66) I used to know how to crochet, knit, weave, needle felt, etc... u name it!!!! I’ve been super busy the past years so I never really picked them up again, but I’ve always been really down for crafts!

67) did u guys kno I love to cook and my housemates know that too and they bought me a cotton apron with mint green straps and watercolor flowers on the front w POCKETS???? I use it every time I cook now and I wuv them

68) WHEN I WAS YOUNGER my frens would get me practical gifts but I would never use them because I always wanted them to be as nice as possible and I didn’t want to ruin it but I never thought ppl would see it as me not liking their gifts qvq I loved them so much I didn’t use them

69) AYYYY NICE anyways fitting confession: I have an MV WIP of tsuruichi set to Bad Boy pitched down version and it was meant to be ironic, but then I really liked the boarding I did for it and

70) IT’S BEEN FOREVER BUT ITS THE LAST STRETCH IM GONNA FINISH THIS but anyways have you guys noticed i like talking w alliteration

71) If you want to get a feel for how stupidly stubborn I can be if I want to do smth, in 1st grade I lost my two front teeth but I still bobbed for apples bc my teacher set it up for halloween

she watched me with pity and amusement and gave me an apple after

72) Oh you wanna hear a spooky story? So when i was a baby, before i could speak very well, my parents once found me pointing to the sliding doors to the yard in the dead of night saying “ta! ta! ta!” They didn’t know what i was saying so they just picked me up and put me to bed

72) (cont) later, when I could speak, they asked me what I meant by “ta” and I replied “Người Ta” which is “people” in Vietnamese

72) adding to this, I actually remember doing this too. I did see people in the yard and they were dressed in old period clothing and just kind of... staring into the house... I never thought much about it because I wrote it off as a dream/a hyperactive imagination but oh ya know

73) Ive been coming to like my voice more Not necessarily the pitch or anything but one of my friends called it like a song birds and other friends say it makes me sound deceptively innocent WHICH ALWAYS MAKES ME GIGGLE i think ive associated my voice with those warm feelings ;v;

74) FOR THE RECORD I DONT BELIEVE TOO HARD IN GHOSTS but my parents do have stories and it’s just better to be safe than sorry

75) SOME OF MY FUNNIEST MEMORIES COME FROM PRESCHOOL I HAVE THREE I CAN THINK OF so one is of the hamster that they brought for us to take care of. it was cute. and then it kept getting fed by the other kids that it couldn’t even fit its little plastic house anymore

76) story two is when i was introduced to the concept of “nap time” and they had cots set out for us. I sat down and tried taking off my shoes and socks to which one of the teachers was like “oh no you keep those on” and i thought the preschooler equivalent of “what? barbarians”

77) story three is my favorite. It was lunch time and there was only one microwave so we all had to wait in line for our food to be heated up. Then there was a bag of popcorn. and it caught on fire. It was small! We had to evacuate. Our parents were called. My mom found me crying

77) (cont.) She thought i was traumatized from the fire, but no. I was crying because I didn’t have the chance to have my Chef Boyardee Ravioli heated up yet

78) OK A LITTLE MORE PERSONAL BUT LOWKEY I WANNA GET RETESTED FOR ADHD JUST. SO I KNOW. Even my dad, who’s very traditional and doesn’t like to talk about it or acknowledge it too hard, looked into it and bought me my first drawing tablet to help curb it

79) HELP IM DYING IVE BEEN GRASPING AT STRAWS AT WHAT TO SAY ABOUT MYSELF SINCE #30 oh but did you know, coloring in Navy is like, the bane of my existence

80) my friends make fun of me for my eyesight but only bc i don’t wear glasses. I can see just well enough to not need glasses but not well enough to read some signs/see faces from an ok distance BUT I ALSO DONT WEAR GLASSES BC THEY GIVE ME A SPLITTING HEADACHE

84) I ALSO WANT TO MAKE IDV CHARMS TOOOOOOOOOO BUT I NEED TO GET OFF MY BUTT TO DO OTHER THINGS IM BAD

85) I think watermelon might be my favorite fruit. I say think bc i just really like fruits in general. But oh yeah i used to cry when my dad kept teasing me that if i ate so much watermelon, the seeds would make a tree in my stomach WATERMELON DOESNT EVEN GROW ON TREES

86) I used to be able to lucid dream! or at least be able to recognize and manipulate my dreams while I was asleep. I stopped because it was like being awake when i slept so I didnt feel too mentally rested. Now I dont really dream at all (unless i want to using the same methods)

87) my backpacks tend to be really heavy cause i like to have everything with me as a “just in case” situation (eg. stranded at school and need to get work done, or you don’t have to remember to bring ur book bc you never took it out)
