AFF holiday tag!

This was created by the lovely pandacathy! It's been a while since I've done one of these and I'm burnt out from finals, so might as well. Please credit her if you see this and want to continue the chain! If you see this, I'm tagging you!

 

Part 1 | The Questions

What is your favorite thing to do in the winter?
Sleeping! Okay I always like sleeping, but I just enjoy being under the covers and being able to write a little more than usual

Do you enjoy the cold weather?
I love it. I've always hated summer and the perfect temperature for me is around freezing

The best color to wear in the winter is…
I tend to gravitate towards a lot of blacks, grays, and reds! I tend to wear clothes that either look somewhat put together, or else I'm wearing sweatpants and an oversized sweatshirt and my hair is thrown into a bun

The best thing about winter is…
Being able to breathe. School is rough! I enjoy spending time at home and recovering from my burnout. I like to think of it as a long-needed mental health break!

The most annoying thing about winter is…
The rain? Normally I don't mind but around finals I get really grumpy about it.

What are your goals for the winter?
For my health to recover! I have an exam that I'm supposed to take by the end but honestly I just want to be functional

Favorite winter/holiday pastime?
Relaxing and window shopping are great, but so is eating all the food at home

Favorite winter/holiday song or album?
Don't make me pick, but I've had crystal snow on repeat

How about movie?
I don't really watch movies! I've been wanting to watch the grinch though

Favorite or best seasonal flavor (e.g., peppermint, gingerbread, etc.)?
I'm a peppermint hoe okay

Beanies or earmuffs?
Beanies! I have quite a few

Gloves or mittens?
Gloves, mainly because I'm completely non-functional with mittens

Sugar cookies or gingerbread?
gingerbread! I love gingerbread

Eggnog or hot chocolate?
hot chocolate? esp peppermint hot chocolate! 

Skiing or snowboarding?
neither I'm going to injure myself

What is the funniest gift you’ve ever received?
someone got me a coloring book of attractive guys and I laughed so hard

What do you think is the best gift to give?
Okay because finals happen around gifting events, I'd argue that a finals care package is the single most nice thing you can give if you don't know the person that well. Soup/hot chocolate/tea, back up meds, snacks, and even a new blanket does wonders. Handmade and/or personalized is still the best though

If you were to participate in a white elephant event, what would you bring as your gift?
Socks! A cute patterned kind because everyone loves socks

Do you think you’re a hard person to shop for?
Yeah I would say so mainly because I'm very specific in what I like! I guess I'm opinionated but I'm always grateful for the time people spend in trying

Ugly Christmas sweaters, yay or nay?
YAY!! I break them out after Halloween and my favorite one is black with white reindeer print and it's so warm

Real Christmas tree or fake one?
Fake! I just don't like throwing trees away

When it comes to ice skating, are you hanging onto the wall or out in the open?
I'M HANGING ON TO THE WALL I really need to learn how to ice skate

Do you want to build a snowman?
Always! I just have to wear gloves

Do you dress up for Christmas, or do you stay in your pajamas?
There's no way I'm leaving the house during Christmas and I don't even celebrate Christmas

On a scale of 1-10, how would your rate your gift-wrapping skills?
-2. I'm a solid 6 when I try but I get lazy with my friends and put stuff in garbage bags

On a scale of 1-10, how excited are you for the holiday season?
9! I need the rest

And bonus question:

You are participating in a Secret Santa. You draw a name and you end up with your bias as the person you will be giving a gift to. What would you gift him/her?
Okay, I love Secret Santa. I tend to put in a lot of thought, but in this case I would probably get a beanie/hat, packets of hot chocolate, and credit for a food delivery! I usually give more personalized stuff, but I don't actually know my bias as a person? Just being realistic

YES TO PEPPERMINT! You're not the only one who loves peppermint during this time of year!

Is it bad that I can actually imagine a snowball fight happening as "Mask Off" is being played? The song gives off vibes of an intense showdown, especially with the flute instrumental going on in the background. But the song carolers would be singing though... LMAO
