...Yeah, I really need to stop making random stuff like this. But people seem to kinda like it(?), so anyway:

- When I'm drawing a character that has an expressive expression (yes I just wrote that), I'l start kinda making that expression as I draw

- THERE WAS SOMETHING ELSE BUT I FORGOT IT OH NO

Neko says bycyn. Bycycling? (I totally did not spell that right oh dear)

back to the Chirp at Cricket

OH YEAH I DO THAT FIRST THING TOO! People tell me I'm really good at drawing facial expressions, maybe that's why...

Wow I do the facial expression thing too! Maybe it's more common than I thought. And, although I'm usually very quiet, when I get to talking about something I'm really excited or passionate about, I tend to talk so loud that people remind me to quiet down.

When I imagine something, read something, or am writing a story my face will make the same expressions the character is.  It can get a little awkward as my sister or parents will ask me “are you okay?”.

Also, when I listen to music my fingers will air play the music like I’m playing my violin.  I air play a piece when I’m bored too.

I totally do the air-playing for viola! Oftentimes it's just the fingerings, but sometimes I do the bowing too, and I don't realize I'm doing it, and sometimes I do it in public and.... not good. I thought that it just had to do with how I fidget a lot, but maybe more other people do it than I thought!

Sometimes the bowing's essentially arm-swinging, but sometimes it's not.

OMG I do the violin thing too! Especially on the soccer field, which is super awkward...

1) Biting my nails.

2)  When I talk to someone, I stare too hard on them, and I know that cause they are so in mannered to tell me! *murmurs threats to myself...*

3) I'm in NaNoWriMo, and I'm always writing, sooooo, when I'm thinking about what I'm going to write (which is all the time) I do odd faces, and scrunch my nose and lift a eyebrow (tho I can't do it self consciously)

4) People always stare at me, and I have this tic of picking up a gel pen and playing with it unconsciously with my fingers.

5) Sticking pencils and pens into my gigantic hair bun.

6) Tearing off leaves from plants (sorry)

7) I can't stop playing ROBLOX CAUSE...YEAH.

AND I DID NOT KNOW THAT I HAD SEVEN HABITS!!!!

Whenever my glasses fall down my nose, I kind of scrunch my face in a weird way to get them back up and it looks really weird. I also sometimes find myself arguing with myself out loud, especially when I'm brainstorming for a book.

1.) I'm always twirling a pencil or pen or something between my fingers, or just shaking it between them.

2.) Always looking around. Never not looking around.

3.) Mumbling half-coherent thoughts to myself while writing.

4.) Either tapping my fingers, bouncing my knee, tapping my toes--that sort of thing.

5.) If something has a button, I will click it. Not because I have an impulse to press the button--but because I like the sound it makes.

6.) I always tap the side of my glasses when I'm thinking really hard about something.

1. Always steps over cracks with my right foot

2. Splits words in half. ex: quar|tets, spea|king aguam|arine, etc. When I  can't split it in half I just add an 's' even when it's not right. (I can't think of anything right now but I can tell you that one of my favorite splits is anyt|hing) 

3. infrequently makes the faces her characters make when she's writing

Sorry, that slipped inbetween 1st and 3rd person.

1. Randomly staring off into space while I’m thinking and accidentally don’t process anything people try to say to me.

2. Thinking about funny stuff at random times and laughing out of nowhere (I’m sure I look insane)

3. Coming up with what words are backwards. I do this All. The. Time while I’m reading. It can get kind of annoying.

4. I spend a lot of time having imaginary conversations with fictional characters.

Ohh boy... weird habbits are fun!

1. I count the number of stairs whenever I go up them...

2. I have conversations with myself.  

3. I shake my legs almost constantly.

4. I also twirl a strand of hair around my finger when I'm thinking.
