new year new nyas

[taylormicrowave]

i thought it was appropriate to make a new years about me thread because i love making these as early in the year as i can so that i can look back months later and cringe at myself (:

---> i'm 15 yrs old but i still look like i did in 6th grade. 5'1" (155-156cm) and 102lbs (46kg), and no i'm not getting any taller. my wonderful doctor confirmed that :'))
i'm a sophomore in HS. you can call me taylor!
---> i'm mostly feminine, but i still like to use the term demigirl for myself because some days i feel incredibly masculine. she/they pronouns are cool with me, honestly call me whatever.
i'm panromantic and demisexual, and i have a boyfriend, to my surprise 
---> my fave subjects are the sciences (chemistry & physics) and writing i guess? even tho i don't have writing as a class. my best class is history, though.
---> if you haven't noticed i'm really lazy when i type on here. i don't capitalize a lot of things or use apostrophes where they're needed all the time, but it's usually because i just don't care rip
---> i like anime! don't really have any faves that i can think of, but i'll always get emotional over NGE. you can message me about any anime except SAO and even if i haven't seen it i'll probably get interested immediately and want to watch it. 
---> i also cosplay. idk how people feel about that anymore but yep that me. my most recent cosplay is nico yazawa from LLSIP/F
---> i'm neutral to games, i don't really have any faves except easy mobile games like love live! school idol festival or neko atsume. just things like that which aren't too time consuming or stressful.
---> i love studying languages! i know a small amount of french and an even a smaller amount of german. the main language i want to learn, however, is russian. and also korean. but mostly russian.
in addition to this, my heritage is german and italian, so i would like to learn these languages a little better as well, since my great grandpa was full italian. (i have a lot of german dishes in my family too so i'd like to know what i'm eating tbh) 
---> i don't know what i want to do as a career, but i'm thinking a pharmacist. unless, however, once i pick up art again next year in school i come to a miraculous decision that i want to go back to my dream job of being a video game artist. (i do draw, btw, just not much at all and i never practice) 
---> i've been professionally diagnosed with depression, severe anxiety, and a form of psychosis. during the summer time, if i'm not active, this is the reason why. 
---> i'm a cancer. july 4 2000 B^)
---> i'm personally an agnostic atheist, but i totally understand the reason for religion and respect all religions equally. religion is actually very interesting to study, and i incorporate a lot of deities from different bibles into my fiction stories. 

that's all i can think of for now but i might come back to this later. if ya wanna see my face i've already posted a pic on the wcut selfie thread !

Taylor is short
and Taylor is great
so short people are great

languages are very fascinating! I'm too lazy to really learn one on my own, though.

ur 2 nice
short people are okay I know some mean short people so you shouldn't trust them

languages are really cool. I have all these language learning books but I only use them for like a month and hen never again for another 5 months because I get busy rip.

Most of the short people in my class are pretty great. There's no-one particularly tall in my class, though. We all look like middle-schoolers.

Haha, I know that feeling. I've got a whole bunch of Japanese textbooks, but I only get a little bit into them before I get distracted by other things.

@ butter- TBH ME WITH ITALIAN like i'm 3rd or 4th gen and i know 0 of it, probably bc the italian speaking part of my family died before i was born, curses. i'm bad at latin languages though, like i'm actually decent with french but that's the only romance language i can pronounce correctly.
tbh i wish i could learn spanish because i live in FL and literally 70% of our state is fluent in spanish :')

@ ripple- omg i wish my classes were like that, i would blend in better. most of the boys in my grade are either 5'7"-5'8" or like 6'2"-6'3" and it's ridiculous, and the girls are mostly all around 5'5"-5'7"

I think most of the girls in my grade are around 5'5" to 5'7", but there's quite a few that are in the 5'1" to 5'4" range (my height or shorter). And there's only 4 guys in my grade, and two of them are my height.

Heights here are all mixed up. There's no set heights for everyone haha

No one speaks Irish much here anymore. 80% of Ireland are now English speakers. My sister, dad and grandparents and generations before can/could speak it

i have a friend whose family is all irish and scottish, and she's fluent in irish, which is pretty cool. irish seems like a pretty cool language, but i can't imagine trying to learn it just because there aren't too many speakers, especially in the USA rip

Yeah, I live in Idaho, and Idaho is a really not racially/culturally diverse place (especially the city in which I live), so I don't know very many people who can speak other languages.

Maybe it's like this for you as well, but I noticed recently that most of my closest friends have always been a different race than I am. In Kindergarten and first grade my best friend was African American, in 2nd and 3rd grade my best friend was Mexican, in 4th-8th grade one of my closest friends was Chinese/Mexican, and my two closest friends at my high school are Mexican and Korean/Norwegian. And it always happens naturally??

that doesn't happen much for me, actually. I have acquaintances who are other races, like my Irish friend, but the only people I know that I'm close to that are of different races are my boyfriend who's Puerto Rican and my online friend who's Russian. oh, and another one who's Vietnamese. I was close with a Korean girl in middle school, though, and my best friend in 2nd grade was African American.
Florida actually isn't that diverse, it's mostly African Americans, whites, Cubans and Puerto Ricans here, but you don't see many other races.

I don't think I've ever met a Puerto Rican or Cuban around here. Granted, Idaho is a little farther away xD
