My Favorite Colors
I feel like "what's your favorite color?" is one of those generic questions that everyone will be asked hundreds of times in their lives, so that's why this is the first section.
In terms of solid colors, I'd go with some form of buttermilk yellow (PANTONE 2001 UP, Hex:#FCEC90) or periwinkle blue (PANTONE "Ice Water", Hex: #BFD5EB) but my actual favorite is this specific type of glorious yellow, like the background of this website. It's like the type you see during sunsets while you're busy with life, the type on long road trips when you're far away from home that reminds you everything will be fine. It's so ordinary but special at the same time. It feels beyond what a singular tube of paint could capture, it'd take an entire canvas to evoke the same emotions. Because of this, all my belongings remain in various shades of cool blue.
The Best Subjects
Humanities
Despite being horrible at the actual school subject, I love learning about all aspects of humanities sosososo much. I almost always have some historical documentary on as background noise and I love talking to people online about their cultures. There's just something that fascinates me so much about how different factors (including stuff that could've happened thousands of years ago) impact individuals today. This also ties into my obsession with geography; each city can have such a distinct feel and so much can be conveyed by flags!
To all my friends' annoyances, I can rant about this subject for hours on end, but yeah, it really is such an interesting field.
Digitech
This one may seem a bit obvious cause yknow? I just chose to spend my holidays learning how to code a website. I guess it's just fun typing words and seeing every miniscule command come to life on screen. However, it can also be a bit annoying sometimes when nothing's working and you spend 40 minutes trying to figure out what's wrong only to realise you used a : instead of ;
Maths
There's something so satisfying about rearranging a jumble of numbers until a clear, confirmable answer appears. I think my favorite area would be algebra, specifically the complicated multi-step worded problems.
Did you know? There are more tigers privately owned in texas than there are tigers in the wild.
BOOKSELL!!- The Arsonist, Stephanie Oakes
This is one of my absolute favorite books, I'd reccomend it to everyone I met if it wasn't socially frowned upon, I just love it so much like KJDHKSAJFHIUSFHOUH. The story is set between 2 time periods and told by 3 people. There's Pepper (Kuwaiti immigrant, has to write essays or fail school) and Molly (Dad's a convicted murderer who's about to get the death sentence, Mother went missing but Molly's still searching for her) in the present day, working together to try solve the mystery who killed Ava Dreyman while also both pursuing their own agendas.
Then there's Ava Dreyman herself. She's something like Anne Frank in this universe because her journal is published after her death and plays a crucial part in destroying the Berlin Wall. We learn her story alongside Molly and Pepper while they're reading the book, but it diverges near the end as we realise her book lied.
The ending is honestly heartbreaking because the author basically lets us build up false hope throughout the book before writing the most soulcrushing chapter to disintegrate every misplaced dream. The last page ends on a bittersweet note that's optimistically open-ended.
I used to read this once every few months but the ending still shocked me everytime. It's just so well orchestrated in a way that makes each twist crazily outlandish but still entirely logical.
tl;dr: go read the book.
IT WAS ALL YELLOWWWWW
I didn't know what to put, so here's a collection of images featuring my favorite colour.
An (un)PEEL Paragraph About PEEL Paragraphs
I really don't like PEEL paragraphs because they're just so annoying to write.
I could probably write a full unstructured paragraph in the time it takes me to remember whatever the second E stands for, and after figuring that out, I then have to read through my writing like half a dozen times to try gaslight myself into thinking I found appropriate evidence. It's so unnecessary, and half the time I can't even tell if wrote one or not. Is this a PEEL paragraph? I genuinely don't know. I don't think I wrote evidence but I genuinely cannot tell. Would this part be the evidence because it's proving that PEELs are confusing? idk.
Did you know? Chocolate discharges the same chemical into your body that is produced when you start falling in love. This could possibly cause a sense of desparation if someone was to be denied of their chocolate, which may lead them to sending pictures such as these to their parental figures.
The Golden Record
You know how as kids, people sometimes bury little time capsules to find in distant futures? Well, in 1977, NASA decided to do something similar, except for possible aliens to find and decode.
They're essentially record disks carried by the Voyager 1 and 2 space probes and contain everything Carl Sagan and company decided there is to know about our planet. There are Sounds of Earth (19 tracks chosen by various countries), images that range from anatomical drawings and science to athletes and aeroplanes, and (most coolest to me) greetings and well-wishes from around the planet.
I think that this stuff is awesome and one of the most interesting things humanity has done with modern technology.

Fonts
Fonts are cool. I really like Nautica Rounded, Nunito (that's the font you're reading rn btw), and Mojangles. The title font of this webpage is called Choko Milky. That is all.
