What is your proudest accomplishment?
Hmmmm it's tough to choose. One of the more recent ones was organising and being the Conference Manager for a conference for 180 people earlier in the year, and delivering sessions to these people. Definitely a scary and stressful experience but the feeling at the end was so worth it.
yo! can't believe i haven't asked you any questions yet o:
time to bust out the deep stuff. i hope i'm not asking any questions you've already been asked before haha
1. Who is your greatest inspiration?
I struggle so much with this type of question; I feel like my inspirations fluctuate and change quite frequently. One of my biggest inspirations are Jack and Finn Harries from JacksGap - I love how they've progressed from being generic Youtubers to making such amazing use of their platform to spread messages about what they're passionate about. They're young people and aren't afraid to speak on issues like climate change, and they're also quite inspiring in the way that they're chasing their non-conventional dreams.
2. What is your current goal in life?
My immediate short-term goal is to launch a Humans of [insert the name of my uni here] page. I've always wanted to do it because I love Humans of New York and the stories that come out of it, so just the other day I've started taking photos of and interviewing people at my uni. I'm not a great photographer but I'm hoping I'll improve as time goes on, and I'm much more interested in sharing people's stories (rather than just pretty photos) anyway.
A more long-term goal (ish) is to work out what I want to do in my life. I graduate from my Bachelors sometime next year and there are two main options for me - take a few summer subjects and graduate midyear and then apply to be a national director (for one year) of the global non-profit I work at, or graduate at the end of the year and apply for
Teach for Australia.
3. What's your favourite time of day?
I love summer mornings/nights because of how fresh and bright and happy everything is in the morning, and how lovely it is to be outside on summer nights. When the weather isn't as great, lunchtime is always good because foooooood ;3
4. If you were a Gym Leader, which type would you use?
Poison or Water. They're both quite versatile and I love Pokemon from both of them :D
5. What's your favourite snack?
I've gotten into trail mixes and random nuts lately. Kinda expensive but they give me energy and taste pretty good too.
Where'd you get that Harry Potter signature?
Most of the gifs I use are from tumblr! I don't have a tumblr, I just get gifs from various blogs.
You have an entire day to waste in a lovely park. What would we catch you doing most of the time?
Like a park with flowers and trees and stuff? I love reading in the sun in the park, and listening to music too. I've found myself taking naps in parks before too lol. I would walk around and explore, take all the nature things in, try and find some inspiration. Also take lots of ~*~*~*~nature photos~*~*~*~ for insta.
What's a story you've told a million times to people?
I've held Taylor Swift's hand!
How open are you with your feelings usually?
I've grown to be more open with my feelings and talking about things with people. I've learnt recently that it feels great being more open and vulnerable with people, and I really enjoy these open sort of conversations.
What's your zodiac sign, and how do you feel about astrology?
I'm a Taurus, but I pay absolutely no attention to astrology hahaha.
