2016 Friending Meme

[thegirlonfire]

As the new year is fast approaching, I figured everyone could use a few more friends for the coming year! This is a small general meme, trying to focus more on personality as opposed to simply listing favorites. I find that similar qualities in people tend to work better than just liking the same shows.

Basics

Name: Maggie
Age: 25
Location: NY
Beliefs (political/religious/etc.): atheist, liberal though not extremist.
Describe yourself in a few sentences: I’m a mid twenties gal trying to switch tracks in life. I have a bit of a contradictory personality: I am both driven, yet extremely prone to procrastination; I am considerate and understanding, but also really like things done my way; I’m both overly organized and not at all.
Anything you identify strongly with?: Not really. I tend to place pretty differently on all types of personality tests. Although, I think I am starting to settle on my Hogwarts House being Gryffindor.
Anything you'd like to add about yourself? I really love dogs. And owls.

Interests

Your hobbies/interests: writing (original, fanfic and RP), reading, learning (academic stuff), self improvement, cooking, art/art history, sewing, cosplaying, fashion, makeup, hiking, baths, music

Aww, the jello gif is adorable! :DDD

I tend to relate most to the characters who try to remain optimistic and kind despite bad situations, always trying to do the right thing no matter what.

Have you read The Goblin Emperor by Katherine Addison? That description made me think of the protagonist of that book a while lot.

[thegirlonfire]

I have not read that! But I will be sure to look into it now. It's my opinion that it's harder to be kind and bright in a world that brings you down, so I value characters who hold onto that despite everything.

Thanks so much for the rec! I really appreciate it ♥

Hey there! We have heaps of fandoms in common (Marvel, HP, Anything Tolkien, THG just to name a few) and I really like the fact that you are focusing/posting on self improvement because I am trying to pursue that this year as well. If you'd like to be friends that'd be wonderful. Til then, have a good one! :)

[thegirlonfire]

Wooo! I'm all for common interests and pursuing self improvement together! ♥

I've added you :)
