My First Dzen Ever

Writing my first post on the blog feels like a job interview. Please describe yourself - reads the posting recommendation.

The first thing I teach my students to say is: it depends))) There is no black & white, good or bad, right or wrong answer.

The same goes for describing yourself.

Are you pretty? Well, it depends...on which side of the bed I wake up. After 40 everything depends...

Friends say I am pretty reliable. Haha. Pretty - check✅. Reliable- check✅. Sometimes my Friend A would ask me to take 200 bucks to Friend B. And I do it. Thank you for using interest-free payment transfer system Lubava.

What else? I am the person who takes out her Christmas tree on the 3rd of January. Isn't that too soon? - a downstairs neighbor greets me with such a face, like she has just caught Grinch stealing her Christmas spirit. Works for me - my tree will be the first in the garbage container. Finally, first in something. By the way, a quick lifehack for next year: how to take out a dry Christmas tree painlessly - buy an artificial one. (Thanks, Cap.)

I'm a person who can't decide whether to take a dog or a cat, and has taken no one so far and lives happily ever alone.

I'm a person who hates washing up. I mean I would literally do anything else. Even clean the floor in the darkest corners behind the bed, just don't make me deal with dirty plates. Childhood trauma. But I'm in therapy, don't worry. If that doesn't work I'll buy a dishwasher.

I'm definitely smart, clever or intelligent. Whichever you prefer. Why? Because my Mom says so. When I was little I used to ask her: 'Am I pretty, Mommy?' She would say: 'You are pretty smart, my dear.' Pretty - check✅ smart - check✅. I speak 3 languages - English, Italian & Russian. I have a sense of humor in 2 of them, always forget which ones. Ah, yes, my sense of humor! I'm still looking for its on/off button. I often confuse it with my sarcasm. Sarcasm is in my default settings. My apologies and condolences to all my dates. Can't help it.

I'm a person who tries to close her bank account on the 2nd of January. Why? And why not? So much time on my hands having nothing better to do between salads and comedy shows on youtube. I guess I caught poor support girl in between salads too. You can say I'm strange. I'd say unconventional. Accounts closed - check✅. Salads finished - check✅.

Enough for now: a pretty reliable smart sarcastic unconventional and sometimes funny teacher of English who speaks Italian & Russian.

Happy New Year & cheers to all pretty smart sarcastic funny & unconventional people
