On a scale of 1-10, how excited are you about life right now?
Like, a 5? I’m at a point in my life that I can go in any direction so I have a lot of freedom and choice. But, I have no idea where I want to be going so I’m in limbo and that makes me anxious...
Describe yourself in a hashtag?
#backoftheroomandnotbelonging
I use it to tag any content I’m posting and Tumblr is typically where I’m the most honest.
If you could do a love scene with anyone, who would it be?
Oooo I don’t know
Colson? Yungblud, maybe Mod Sun as well...
Definitely Colson though - that man is a dream 👀
If your life was a musical, what would the marquee say?
I genuinely don’t have the foggiest...
What’s one thing people don’t know about you?
I’ve done pole fitness since I was 14.
What’s your wake up ritual?
Wake up, check the number of notifications I have on my phone, have a wash, get dressed, makeup, breakfast.
What’s your go to bed ritual?
PJs, have a wash, music, lights out, music, fanfiction, daydream, pass out.
What’s your favourite time of day?
Anytime between 2:00 and 4:30 in the morning. It’s when my house is guaranteed to be asleep so I’m finally able to just stop and be me.
Your go to for having a good laugh?
I don’t actually remember the last time I had a good laugh...
KellyVision makes me chuckle though.
Dream country to visit?
America. It’s kinda cliche but oh well. Definitely hitting up Cleveland for EST Fest and maybe NYC. Probably would wanna go to an amusement park as well - I just have this idea that they’re very different to British ones.
And NZ! My cousins are there and together? We’re hurricanes.
What’s the biggest surprise you’ve had?
This is one of those questions that I suddenly can’t think of an answer for.
Maybe @xwonderlandxinxhellx?
I don’t even remember how we started talking but I never thought (I dreamed but never thought) that I would actually make a friend on Tumblr.
So, thank you 🖤
Heels or flats/sneakers?
CONVERSE! I will die in my Chucks.
That being said, ya girl loves feeling herself in heels. I can’t do normal heels so I have these block heel brogues that I adore.
Vintage or new?
I adore the vintage style but sizing often isn’t on my size.
Also love some dark punk grunge clothing.
Who do you want to write your obituary?
I don’t want an obituary.
When I die I want that to be it. No funeral, no nothing.
Style icon?
Colson, Dom?
I’m very into aesthetics that I could never really pull off.
What are three things you can’t live without?
My glasses
My headphones
The Bloom album (quite literally in this case)
What’s one ingredient you put in everything?
Mixed herbs or sweetcorn.
Love Worcestershire Sauce as well.
What 3 people living or dead would you like to make dinner for?
Colson Baker (needs a heartwarming homecooked meal)
And there are probably others but none that really spring to mind.
My mum, to thank her?
What’s your biggest fear in life?
Fear of isolation
I’m not scared of being abandoned (if you do that to me then you’re doing me a favour)
But I am scared of closing myself off to people that could be there for me and letting things get bad and consume me again.
Window or aisle seat?
Aisle seat!
I like looking at what’s going on about me.
And it’s odd but I also don’t hate the inconvenience of getting up to let people pass.
What’s your current TV obsession?
Roadies.
And nothing else will ever match it. It’s a crime it was cancelled before a second season.
Favourite app?
Tumblr, followed closely by Pinterest.
I think it’s because they’re spaces that are specifically for your interests, dreams, all that mess in your head and I vibe with that.
Secret talent?
I’m not very talented, not gonna lie.
I can rap all of Breaking News which I feel is impressive?
Most adventurous thing you’ve done in your life?
I’ve not had many opportunities to be adventurous.
Skipping school always gave me such anxiety so my body definitely thought I was jumping off a cliff or something.
How would you define yourself in three words?
Witty, fangirl, brave?
Favourite piece of clothing you own?
I have a green and grey checkered suit jacket that I adore.
My Adder Technology jumper is my favourite oversized item.
Black ripped jeans.
Must have clothing item everyone should have?
Brown leather belt. I don’t know why but I’ll never go back.
Superpower you would want?
Power of time? Just to like slow it down. I feel like I don’t have enough time to do anything so to slow it down and get shit done would be great. Or just to give myself a minute to breathe. We don’t get enough ‘time out’s in life.
What’s inspiring you in life right now?
Colson has always been inspiring to me.
He came into my life when I was 15 and literally saved it. He’s always going to mean that to me.
Best piece of advice you’ve received?
Mod Sun: I’ve always been a little bit reluctant to say I’m gonna be the best at something because I didn’t wanna disrespect other people, like ‘Imma be the best at something, you can’t have it’. So I’d never really be like that. But if you don’t say you’re gonna be the best at what you’re doing, your insides, that power that you have, doesn’t know what the fuck to do.

Best advice you’d give your teenage self?
Just live, please. We were so close to not living and yet here we are. Please, please, just throw the rule book in the flames. Go to school hungover, pull allnighters to just feel music, smoke, don’t do your homework.
Promise me to be unapologetically yourself.
A book that everyone should read?
In Cold Blood by Truman Capote - just stick with it...it’s an interesting story and raises some questions about life.
The Selection Series by Keira Cass - my favourite YA series.
Harry Potter by JK Rowling - pretty self explanatory?

If your life were a song, what would the title be?
It would 100% be a word or phrase that wouldn’t turn up in the lyrics at all.
But you listen to it and the title seems like the perfect title, nothing else could represent this song.
If you could master one instrument, what would it be?
Guitar, bass? No, drums. Vocals...

I think maybe a seal?
Best gift you’ve ever received?
My headphones.
I have tiny ears so have always struggled to find earbuds that are comfortable for a long period of time.
I found some!
And then they were discontinued so it’s really difficult to buy them.
I was surprised with 3 pairs once and I practically cried.
Best gift you’ve ever given?
Ummm, I’m not very artsy creative but I once made my mum a birthday card using a teabag, I think she liked it?
I was a teenager so it was really rare that I ever did something artistic so I think she especially appreciated the effort and discomfort I felt.

Chess.
Game of Life.
Cards against humanity.
What’s your favourite colour?
Grey.

I’ve grown out of it: pink is punk as fuck.
Diamonds or pearls?
I don’t really have a preference.
I much prefer simple things.
If we’re talking jewellery then I like plain silver.

Air-dry
These curls only work one way and that’s their way.

Both.
Depends on what I need in the moment.

The weirdest words are the ones that you learnt reading so pronounce one way when actually it’s said entirely differently.

Dark chocolate or milk chocolate?

Cadbury released this bar that mixed the two together and that seems kinda perfect.

Pretty much anything MGK
Currently feeling the Lace Up album.
