Here and Now — A Friendzy

[sound_of_silence]

I don't know about you, but lately I've been bored by the redundancy of friending memes. It feels like I'm always being asked the same things — favourite books/movies/games/fandoms, things I post about, things I look for in friends... This is all well and good, I don't have anything against those questions — I've found so many good LJ-friends through them, why would I? — but I find myself hoping to be asked something new at every friendzy I participate in.
And then I thought, why not organize one myself?
So here I am, with an attempt at an original friending meme! Share, comment, find friends, you know the drill!

The more, the merrier:

The Basics (Can't Really Change Them)
Name:
Mel :)


Age: 34



Location:
The seaside, UK.



Currently, what are you...


... Reading? Timefulness: How Thinking Like a Geologist Can Help Save the World, Marcia Bjornerud



... Watching? Russian Doll on Netflix.



... Listening to? I try to listen to new music, but inevitably end up listening to my alternative indie rock fare from the 80's to the 00's. XD



... Playing? Nothing.



... Working on (job-wise and/or leisure-wise)?

I am an artist and a lecturer. Just submitted a PhD thesis in Fine Art, and waiting to have my Viva. I also have a big solo exhibition coming up soon.



... Looking forward to?

The summer, completing my PhD and little holidays.



... Worried/concerned/annoyed about?

Mainly the war, and covid. We live in interesting times.



What were your last three LJ entries about and when did you post them?

Just general updates about my life. I just moved over from LJ, and had a month hiatus while I submitted my PhD.



Anything else?

<3
