Tagged  by @VagrantDust - To tell 13 facts about myself.
          	
          	1. I like trains. No, seriously, I really enjoy traveling via train. Well, at least in my country. They're old and worn out and full of graffiti and late.
          	
          	2. I live in Serbia.
          	
          	3. I've only been out of the country a couple of times, to Montenegro and Greece. I wish I could travel abroad more.
          	
          	4. I played chess and took chess classes for nearly 8 years. I still suck, but don't regret it for a moment. Great life lessons, logical development, fun times, good friends.
          	
          	5. Despite what I try to tell myself when I leave everything for the last minute, I work great under pressure.
          	
          	6. I started getting grays around 14. It's just stress, not permanent graying, but it's pretty ridiculous. I mean, they're few and far apart, but my hair is black, so they're visible. I'm 18 now, so I'm not the only idiot who stressed themselves into graying, but back in grade school it was pretty weird.
          	
          	7. I'm afraid of making any permanent changes to my body. I've never even had a piercing, nor would I have a tattoo, nor ruin my hair with chemicals (although that's not as permanent, but pretty long-term). That's ironic, because I'm prone to risk-taking behavior otherwise. I suppose I'm just very aware of how much I change as time goes by and don't want my future self to cringe at souvenirs from my past self their entire life.
          	
          	8. I'm a pantheist.
          	
          	9. I virtually stopped reading and eventually writing when I entered my school. It's too consuming. I mean, I've read things for school, don't get me wrong, Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, Kafka, Cami, Borges, Shakespeare, Goethe etc. and many wonderful authors from my region, but I just wish I could read more and in my own time and pace and paying attention to things I care about, not the things my teacher cares about.
          	
          	10. I have a dog, Tara, and my mom treats her like a child, so it's the most obnoxious, spoiled and cute labrador retriever in the world.

@DarinkaZobenica That's probably a safe assumption. ;-)

          	  I, on the other hand, just assume everyone on here is American unless otherwise implied. XD

@DarinkaZobenica I had no idea you lived in Serbia. I thought you were Filipino for some reason.

I know I replied to you already on Fairest, but I wanted to stop by and thank you again for all the feedback and the follow! It really made my Saturday. :D

@aries_34 Aww that's so amazing, I'm glad I could better your mood in any way by enjoying your story! :D I wish I could find a legitimate thing to criticize to help you out, but you're just out of my league. XD I'll be looking forward to reading more from you! ^w^

You're so awesome. Thanks for your continued support. I wish you had writing on here that I could read to at least try to return the favor!

DarinkaZobenica

@highpost1388 No problem, don't worry about it! :) I thought your story must be interesting when you mentioned it in the clubs, and I really appreciated the conversation, so I decided to check it out.
            
            Also, I write in Serbian, which is my native language, and I'm not so eager to get into translating waters, so I doubt I'll be posting anything on here. I'm basically here to help people out, so I'm already really happy that you appreciate it so much. :D
