@Kate
its kindof like coffee but its herbs and tastes sweeter and has no caffeine.
I had some it was interesting
@RiverTamer102409 nope!
@practicalIdeal2007 ill sit with you
@practicalIdeal2007
New Phone; I have enough clothes at the moment UwU
Work Hard; I'm very passionate about school, which you do work in
Dishes! They're so awful to do! So much time and energy T^T
Bath or Shower...? Eh, either/or. I don't prefer one over the other at all. Showers are good when you're on a time crunch and just need to clean yourself, baths are good for relaxing.
Sandals; they're easier to slip on, especially when you're in a rush.
Online Shopping or Shopping in a Store...? I enjoy both. Though, going to the store is a good way to socialize with my mom and connect with her mom. Then again, shopping with my dad is super stressful...
Free Time; I need my time to relax oof
Up Side Down; it prevents stuff from falling into the cup
Popcorn; I get hungry and popcorn is cheaper
Honesty or Others Feelings...? Both matter.
Hi
@crimsonLime6525 Hey!
@crimsonLime6525
Hey!
@Heather225
Most of these I'm indifferent to, buuut! Essential: candy at the movies. Way superior than popcorn. Thankfully there's caramel popcorn 💜💛💙💚
My whole year has been prioritizing free time and wellness over money, but I did save up a ton last year so that I could take time off And laundry does itself for the most part, so it wins :)
@RockhopperPenguin
Hey! I am so happy to see you here!
I like your answers! It sounds like you are working so hard at listening to yourself!

@RiverTamer102409
Thanks river :) Funny story, I used to make big money and spend half of it on doctors and medicine. Worked 12+ hours plus commute and didn't have a single friend. So I quit, got a part time job in an unrelated field, traveled and met new people. Now I acuactua have a life! I might get back to the type of work I used to do, but, ImI in absolutely no rush.
@RockhopperPenguin
Parts of your story are so similar the experience i had working for a fortune 500. I live in an economically depressed area so i didnt make like BIG bucks but i made was is considered good money for average people here and I could not deal with the abuse.
I left and i am so much happier now.
