a_natural_beautyThese are the second half of the questions from February. Here is the whole list if any of you want to check them out: https://jo.dreamwidth.org/2802730.html#cutid1
15 – World Hippo Day: How much do you know about hippos? Have you seen one outside a zoo?
I feel I do need to learn a bit more about hippos. I have a character in my comic that is part human-part animal. They are basically furies. I have only seen them in person at zoos.
16 – Innovation Day: Are you the creative sort who can easily come up with new innovations, or are you better at following-up with developing other people's ideas?
I think it depends on the innovation. But overall I feel like I am more of a follower than a leader.
17 – My Way Day: the day where you are encouraged to do whatever you want, however you want. Have you ever treated yourself to a day like this? What did you do?
oh my gosh, I have so many days like that. The perks of living alone, not having kids and not too much of a social life. It depends on how I am feeling that day and what it's like outside, the time of the year, things like that. But most of my days I do whatever I want usually involve a nap! :-p
18 – Battery Day: How many things in your house are unusable without batteries? (If they don't run on mains power.)
My books, stamps, art supplies, puzzles, word searches.... to name a few.
19 – World Whale Day: Have you ever been whale watching? Tell us about it.
No, but I would love to go do that someday. Maybe, here's hoping ~
20 – Love Your Pet Day: Do you have pets? Tell us about them – cats, dogs, other species? How many?
Yes, I have my sweet little betta fish named Sapphire. She's such a good little girl, kind of naughty at times when it comes to feeding she can be a bit of a hurry. She likes to go in her betta log recently and likes to be talked to and I like singing to her, too.
21 – International Mother Language Day: What is your native language? How many languages do you speak fluently or near-fluently? How many languages besides your native language have you studied?
None all that well besides English. I do know a bit of sign language.. And a few words in Spanish.
22 – World Yoga Day: Do you do yoga? How do you benefit from it?
Yes, I try to do it when I can. I should get in the habit more. I feel like it's good to slow down and unwind. Plus it's good for so many things from our mental, emotional and physical health.
23 – Digital Learning Day: What are the benefits of digital learning compared to other methods of learning? What are the disadvantages?
Honestly I don't have much thought on this topic. But as long as the person is learning and enjoying themselves, I don't think it matters how they learn. We all have different ways to absorb information.
24 – International I Hate Coriander Day: Do you love or hate coriander? If you don't like it, what don't you like about it?
I don't think I have ever had it by itself. So I will have to try it and get back to this question someday.
25 – Real Bread Week: Real bread refers to any type of bread that has been made without the use of processing aids or any other additives and includes any type of additive-free bread (e.g. pita, paratha, tortilla, oatcakes, roti, bagels, etc.). Do you, or have you ever, made bread? Do you use a bread maker? If you always buy rather than make bread, do you look for bread that at least claims to be additive-free, made from organic flour, etc.?
I have had homemade bread from my parents. And my Grandpa used to make it quite a bit back when he was alive. :-)
26 – Carpe Diem Day: Are you good at seizing the day? If not, what holds you back?
I try to be! I feel I have more energy and motivation in the morning hours than I do the rest of the day. So earlier on I try to seize it before it gets away from me ~
27 – Pokemon Day: Are you or is anybody in your family a Pokemon fanatic?
I am! And some of my family! And some of my friends! :D
28 – Tooth Fairy Day: Did the tooth fairy visit you whenever one of your baby teeth fell out? If you have children, did/do you have the tooth fairy visit them when they lose teeth? Why or why not?
Yes, I had some dear letters written from the tooth fairy. If I had kids I think I would let the tooth fairy make some visits.
15 – World Hippo Day: How much do you know about hippos? Have you seen one outside a zoo?
I feel I do need to learn a bit more about hippos. I have a character in my comic that is part human-part animal. They are basically furies. I have only seen them in person at zoos.
