Good and bad…Bad because you can’t go to any other places of the country and this has a lot of dampness and it’s horrible for my bones…but I think the worst is the tourists, specially German ones…Gosh, too many! I can’t take a fucking bus to school because they took it in herds!!…The good thing is the weather…Winter is better here than in the peninsula, and we have awesome beaches (even when I don’t like beaches), so…that.

Yes, but with an extra cost…or if the commission is over $10, it’s free. (You can ask for commishes in my DeviantArt)
★ Why are you so mean sometimes?
I’m sorry, sometimes I can be really rude, but I think it’s because when I was little, other children usually bothered me…maybe is an unconscious self-defense…But is my way to talk, I don’t pretend to be mean (The most of time…)
★ Do you support gay marriages and adopting?
Yes, I do. and I’m sure they can be better parents than some straight couples that have children. So…let them be.
★ Why don’t you like Catalan?
Let’s see…I appreciate learn other languages, but in Majorca, teachers forced me to learn Catalan and I think that’s because I “hate” it. Even some of my Catalan teachers didn’t like me only because I’m not 100% majorcan (My parents are from the peninsula), in an island, people tend to be a little closed-minded…and I had enough for that. They made me hate it, I’m not against the language…but I think it’s silly the high level you have to need to work or study here…
If you have more questions, ask me! <3
