about me:
\- I’m a bit digital artist. some of my artworks are in my profile. happy to chill out in magma together
\- i’m going to apply for medical school next year and i’m studying for my exams (learning russian, biology and chemistry), that’s why I’m free for speaking practice only on weekends. Im studying for exams every weekdays for 4 hours and more, and i have only 1 hour left for english, so im just using it for learning new words or writing texts.
\- i love androgynous people and im planning to become one of them after i graduate and gain more personal space
\- sometimes read classics (on russian). the last book i’ve read and liked a lot was Master and Margarita (heil to Bulgakov. i liked his ,,morphine,, too). the rest of the time i just consume english queer comics, mangas, manhwas… and chinese novels. that’s my way of learning english
\- love spend my time watching english youtube. will be happy to watch it with someone and share opinions
\- im using quizlet and anki flashcards
\- i’ve kinda anxious personality so it will take me some time to get use to a new person
