Hey, Silver! We got grouped together for Make-a-Friend :)

So, do you listen to a lot of music? I think you've mentioned a couple of Taylor Swift songs before - I like her too! I listen to a lot of alternative music as well, though, like girl in red, Clairo, and Wallows. I don't really have one specific taste in music though, and I'm not particularly picky. 

I love writing, but I'm not great at committing to finishing a story (my ski-lodge will get finished though, I'm determined to make that happen!). I do write a lot of poetry though, and I've seen some of yours and it's really good! 

Uh… Yeah I'm no good at starting a conversation- sorry… But hi! I'm excited to get to know you better :D

back to the Down to Earth

Hey Peri!! I'm also very excited to get to know you better!

Yes, I really do like Taylor Swift; my favorite album is folklore, although I don't think that I can choose one favorite song. I also like alternative music (girl in red!!) and pretty much will listen to anything as long is it isn't country music (an exception is made here for Taylor Swift's earlier music). I also listen to a lot of podcasts, true crime mostly, but also current events.

I also love writing and also am very bad at committing to a single story- I think at this point I've begun four (??) ski lodges and have not finished any of them. Your dedication to your ski lodge is really impressive, and I'm so glad that you're determined to finish it! It's one of my favorites of all time (and I've read a lot of them).

Do you have a favorite book/movie/genre? How about a favorite school subject? (Can't come up with very interesting questions right now, sorry :'))

One of my favorite books is The Missing Piece of Charlie O'Reilly by Rebecca K. S. Ansari. It's a book aimed at ages 8-12, and I mostly read YA now, but I love mysteries with fantasy in them, and this book leaves parts open to interpretation, plus it leaves you thinking for a long time. Her second book, The In-Between, is also great, but I didn't like it as much mostly because I had one of the major plot twists spoiled for me :/ But yeah, overall I'd call my favorite genre mystery, or fantasy (Or fantastical mysteries!)

My favorite movie is probably Spider-Man: Into the Spiderverse, which might sound cringe but you have to trust me when I say the animation is gorgeous. The music is also good, and it's funny. Plus, it's Marvel (though not part of the MCU), and I love Marvel.

My favorite school subject is English, but I also like math. In English this year we've read S. E. Hinton's The Outsiders and Lois Lowry's The Giver, and I liked both of them! I think I liked The Outsiders better, but they were both fun to read and I loved the messages from each. I think we might be reading one more book this year, but I'm not sure. 

What about you? Favorite book/movies/genre/school subject?
