Dec 25

Words: 2 086

A/N: Last One, I made it! and I deliberately mixed up the timeline concerning who is married to whom. Also I’m having a skull splitting headache while writing this, so it might make no sense whatsoever…

You pressed the door bell and quickly shoved your hands back into your coat’s pockets. The winter air was freezing, but at least the freshly fallen snow gave the town a beautiful make over for Christmas Day. Behind the door, steps were approaching, and the next moment, your friend Frank pulled it open, a big grin immediately jumping on his face as he saw you standing outside.

“Just in time,” he cheered, pulling you inside and slamming the door shut behind you.

He engulfed you in a quick hug, before helping you take your coat off, and hanging it into the cloak stand, right next to one you recognized as Gerard’s, which immediately caused your heartrate going through the roof, just like every other thought at Gerard.

“Put your scarf there on the dresser,” Frank directed, waiting patiently as you took of your hat and scarf.

“I brought stollen,” you told him, handing him a tin box which you had carried in a fabric bag over your shoulder.

“Ah brilliant,” your friend exclaimed, taking the box from you, “Jamia was so worried because she didn’t have time to make any.”

He bustled off, probably into the kitchen to put the stollen on a plate.

Just when you had taken off your boots, and were about to step into the living room, you heard Frank shout a warning.

“Mind the door to the living room, Jamia put up mistletoe, and she will force the tradition on you, if you’re not careful!”

You chuckled, thinking to yourself, that you definitely would not mind getting stuck under that mistletoe with a certain hazel eyed singer, before you finally entered the living room.

A tall Christmas tree, decorated with lights, red baubles and golden ribbons, stood in front of a window to the garden, and on the corner sofa you were welcomed by more of your friends. Mikey and Kristin were sitting between Ray, Christa and Gerard, all of them jumping up when they saw you entering the room.

After you had greeted everyone, you sat down on the only free space that was left, right next to Gerard, trying to keep a safe distance to him, as well as you pulse steady. He immediately started asking about how your Christmas Eve had been and told you excitedly about the new guitar pedal Mikey had gotten for him. You could not help the smile that etched itself onto your face at his enthusiasm, and carefully listened to his rather amusing imitation of the change the pedal caused to the guitar sound.

After a few minutes, Frank and Jamia emerged from the kitchen, both carrying tablets with cookies, your stollen, as well as tea and non-alcoholic mulled wine. You sighed contently at the delicious smell of baked goods and spices that spread through the room. It was a years- long tradition to meet for a Christmas-y brunch on the morning of the 25th, and this year was no exception.

“Ugh, don’t take up so much space, move,” Frank complained, pushing Gerard a little aside and squeezing between him and Mikey on the sofa before pulling Jamia down into his lap.

Frank’s rather insensible action had cause Gerard to get pushed into your side, and since you were already sitting pressed against the arm rest, you had no way of escaping the shyly at you smiling Gerard. You shrugged with an excusing smile, and tried to suppress the rising blush, which Gerard seemed not to notice since he was relaxing back into the cushions, placing his arm, which had been squeezed between the two of you, over your shoulder.

Ray, who sat diagonally across from you, since the couch was L-shaped, watched the interaction with raised eyebrows, and smiled encouragingly at you as you noticed his look. Then he turned back to his wife as if he had noticed nothing, and continued participating in the conversation he had been having.

You felt yourself blush more, now that Ray obviously had noticed that you were somewhat interested in Gerard, and quickly busied yourself with getting some cookies.

Usually you were able to pride yourself with knowing pretty well what conversations had been made over the course of a meeting, but when Ray and Christa got up, declaring they had to go, since they had to meet her parents for tea, you had absolutely no clue how the time had passed so fast, or what had happened during it. As you realized you had been far too distracted by the handsome man at your side, who had snuggled closer and closer to you over time. Since it was pretty late already, Mikey and Kristin, Gerard, and you decided to leave the Ieros alone as well.

You helped loading the dishwasher, and then made your way into the hallway, one after the other, careful not to accidently landing under Jamia’s mistletoe with anyone but their own partner.

You were following Mikey into the narrow hallway, when, over the chatter of the others, Gerard exclaimed he had forgotten something in the living room, and pushed back out of the hallway, squeezing past his brother and you with an excusing smile. Politely you stepped aside to let him through, not thinking of the mistletoe that still hungover the door you were standing in as he walked past.

The bustling search for hats, scarfs, gloves and coats got abruptly halted by the excited shout of Jamia.

“I saw that! Don’t look at me like that Gerard; you know exactly what I mean!”

Confused you turned around to see what the excitement was all about. Frank had his lips pressed together, trying to suppress the big grin that threatened to spread across his face. Next to him, his wife accusingly looked at Gerard, while pointing at something over your head; and that was when you remembered the tricky, little branch that had been hung.

Your heart stuttered for a moment, before beating at twice its original speed, hammering against your ribcage. Heat rose in your cheeks, which was not at all comforted by the knowledge that everyone’s eyes were now fixed on you and Gerard.

“Seriously,” Gerard hissed, holding the scarf he had wanted to fetch from the living room, but shuffled over in surrender.

You were too nervous to notice the otherwise very noticeable blush that also had crept on his cheeks as he stepped in front of you.

“Is that okay for you,” he asked, looking at you worriedly, not sure what he wished for you to answer.

You swallowed hard, still very aware of the six pairs of eyes that were fixed on you.

“Do we have a choice,” you whispered, trying to calm your breath, while smiling shyly at Gerard.

He smiled back, and threw his scarf over his shoulder, so he would have both hands free. You almost backed away out of nervousness as Gerard stepped closer. For a moment he just looked at you, with you looking back at him, as if to make sure you were really giving him consent for this. It was obvious that you felt uncomfortable, but so did he. This was not how he had wanted you to kiss you for the first time, not in front of all his friends and their wives. Gently he placed his warm hand at your cheek, brushing his thumb over your delicate skin. Instinctively you melted into the touch, giving Gerard a little more confidence, as he lent in.

His breath calmingly fanned over your skin, and you closed your eyes. This was a lot closer than you had ever imagined being to Gerard, and a chill ran down your spine, making you shiver a little. You felt the warmth that his skin radiated as his face was hovering less than an inch away from yours, and his nose brushed teasingly against yours for a moment. The tension in the air was almost too much to take, but you refused to give in first, even though your heart was beating in your throat, and your lips tickled in anticipation of the feeling of his against yours.

Even though you thought you would be prepared, you were surprised when finally Gerard’s lips connected to yours, melting away the last rest of nervousness. The ‘aww’s and ‘finally’s of the others, who turned back to getting dressed, and the high five between Frank and Jamia, faded away completely as your entire focus was on how soft Gerard’s lips were, even though they were a little chapped from the dry air. You lifted your hand up, and wrapped your finger into the fluffy fabric of his sweater, stepping closer to him. The hand he had placed on your cheek moved to your neck, and his free one to the small of your back, pulling you into him, so your body was pressed to his. The kiss was gentle, full of love, but also hurried, as if both of you had been drowning without the other, and were finally able to breath.

When you pulled away from Gerard, your heart still hammering in your chest, and your cheeks pink, he smiled at you in a way you had never seen him smile before. His eyes were sparkling brightly, and his lips curved upwards softly. You wanted to say something, make a joke, to break the awkward silence that had fallen over the hallway, where, once again, everyone was watching Gerard and you. But before you had the chance to, Gerard leapt forward and wrapped his arms around you, pulling you into a soft hug, that you immediately returned by wrapping your arms around him as well.

You felt him breath into your hair, down your neck, which once more caused a shiver to run down your spine. Your own nose was pressed into the crook of his neck, allowing you to deeply inhale the delicious smell of cinnamon and orange from his sweater.

“Be mine?”

The words were whispered, barely loud enough for you to hear, even though Gerard had whispered them right into your ear. For a moment you were not sure if you had misunderstood him, so you tightened your embrace for a second, before realizing that you in fact had heard him correctly. Without thinking, without considering the other people present, without worrying about the consequences, which had ruined a lot of fun in the past, you pushed away from Gerard just enough to be able to kiss him again, but this time it was rough and passionate, not nervous or uncertain anymore. He immediately responded to the kiss, grabbing your face with both hands to hold you close, before he started giggling, breaking the kiss again.

“Mission accomplished,” Frank announced to the laughter and cheers of the others, causing you to blush even more than you already had.

Gerard seemed pretty unimpressed by the guitarist’s exclamation, and just shook his head, while the smile on his face never faded. Intertwining his fingers with yours, he squeezed past the others, who were still cheering and laughing, helped you into your coat, and grabbed your scarf and hat, before quickly pulling you out of the crowded hallway into the cold afternoon. Hand in hand you walked down the path from the door to the street, then Gerard stopped and looked at you. His happy expression had given way to a concerned one.

“Really,” he asked.

Confused you raised your eyebrows at him, the frown on his face hurting like a dagger that had been driven into your heart.

“Will you really be mine,” he clarified.

Relieved that this was all that troubled him, you chuckled. This time it was you who placed a hand on the other’s face.

“If you’ll have me,” you answered, watching how the frown on Gerard’s face disappeared, and was replaced with this smile that made your heart beat faster.

He quickly pecked your lips, smiling too widely to do more than that.

“Let’s go home,” he suggested, and you nodded quickly.

So you strolled down the street, hand in hand, speeding up your steps only when you heard the door to Frank’s house open, and the others pooling into the yard. You made sure to have disappeared behind a corner before you slowed down again. White, big snowflakes started falling from the grey clouds that hung in the sky, starting to cover up the tracks you left in last night’s snow, and while Gerard quietly started chatting to you, you realized that this had been an exceptionally good Christmas.

DAY 2/12 of productivity

The challange continues.

It has been a rough day, ahaha.

Yesterday I managed to go through and learn 10 questions, today I only went through 8. It took soooo long, oh my god. I was writing and writing and writing and it never ended. But I managed to do the minimum amount of questions per day so it’s better than nothing.

The topics I have been through until now are all about enzymes, all types of enzymes and their diagnostics. To be honest I don’t find this part specially hard, the only problem is the amount of information to take in. The understanding is fine, but the learning of all the definitions is a bit worse. It is really interesting tho, and finally it feels like we’re studying for becoming vets.

Tomorrow I’ll start with the next set of questions that are about the metabolism if I remember correct. These also includes the different metabolic pathways and cycles.

Wohoo

30 days writing challange!

Day 1

Describe my Personality...

Hmmm, dimulai dari sisi mana ya? hahaha

Franciska Marintan Napitupulu. Nama Franciska yang disarankan oleh kakak sepupu, dia berkeyakinan untuk menjadi seorang gadis yang cantik, pintar dan baik. Kemudian Marintan nama dari Mama, ia mengartikan bahwa aku adalah permata/ harta yang berharga baginya. Sudah 25 tahun 5 bulan dengan nama yang agak kurang filososfi ini haha. Aku sering dipanggil Intan.

Seorang anak tunggal, tentu membuatku mudah untuk mendapatkan banyak kemudahan dalam hidupku.Terkadang ini menyebabkan, sering aku memudahkan banyak hal. Sering aku merasa tidak perlu usaha yang berlebih toh aku akan mendapatkannya. Apalagi dalam hal materi, aku termasuk boros. Merasa ada orang tua yang sudah pasti membantu dan menopang ekonomiku. Namun disisi keegoisanku, kedua orangtuaku sudah membiasakanku untuk berbagi dengan saudaraku. Aku ingat dimasa kecilku aku selalu berbagi dengan sepupuku. Jadi apabila aku dibelikan baju pasti Mama juga akan membeli untuk sepupuku. Sepanjang yang aku ingat tak pernah aku merasa cemburu ketika Mama membelikan barang-barang kepada sepupuku. Semakin besar aku juga semakin terbiasa untuk berbagi, tenggang rasa sesama saudara.

Aku terbentuk menjadi Intan yang sering merasa Insecure. Sering tidak percaya diri dan kurang nyaman menjadi pusat perhatian. Selalu ingin membantu dari belakang saja. Padahal aku memiliki talenta yang harus ditampilkan dimuka umum. Aku suka bernyanyi. Namun kurang percaya diri jadi aku enggan untuk bernyanyi didepan umum. Sepanjang masa sekolah aku tidak terlalu explore bakatku ini. Setelah aku berkuliah aku mulai sering bernyanyi. Sedikit demi sedikit mulai percaya diri. Namun masih jadi “PR” untukku, agar lebih percaya diri. Mulai menunjukkan kemampuan yang aku bisa.

Selalu berkeinginan untuk tampil sempurna, mungkin itu yang menyebabkanku selalu menunggu hal-hal besar untuk memulai sesuatu. Padahal banyak hal yang harus dimulai dulu, tanpa dimulai dengan hal besar kan?

Aku sangat keras kepala, sering sekali ingin selalu menjalani seperti yang kuingini dan kuyakini. Agak terlihat bebal, apalagi dalam hal prinsip. Ternyata yang punya diriku bukanlah aku dan kuasaku. Ada yang lebih berkuasa, bukan semua tentang kemauanku yang harus jadi, tapi kemauan-Nya.

Sangat intuitif, seringnya jadi kurang sabar. Selalu menginginkan hal besar terjadi tanpa peduli banyak hal kecil yang bisa mendukung menjadi hal besar. Kurang paham dalam proses. Terkadang menyebabkanku menjadi orang yang gegabah dan menyesal kemudian.

Lumayan sulit mengungkapkan apa yang terjadi dalam diri. Iya, bukannya mengatasi masalah malah memilih jalan lain dan aman.

Okey, beberapa hal negatif dalam diriku yaa itu. Tapi aku punya hal positif kok, pasti hahaha.

Aku mudah bergabung dalam suatu kelompok, selalu bisa menjadi pribadi yang ceria. Kapanpun dan dimanapun hahaha. Dan selalu berusaha membina hubungan baik dengan orang-orang. Jadi punya banyak teman untuk sharing juga.

Aku senang berbagi, latah aja mau bantu orang. Selalu berusaha bisa bantu kalo lihat orang sedang kesusahan. Selalu niat bantu. Semakin hari harus makin dermawan yaaa, Tan hahaha.

Sebenarnya, aku adalah pribadi yang ceria. Senang sekali rasanya bisa buat orang ketawa dengan kekonyolan ataupun hal apa yang aku tawarkan untuk dibicarakan. Rame, aku senang. Apalagi berkumpul dengan teman-teman ataupun orang baru. Aku suka.

Hmm, mungkin agak naif apa gimana. Tapi ya, aku itu susah sekali membenci orang. Jadi sampai umur sekarang aku itu gapernah punya musuh. Dendam juga enggak. Kayaknya aku gadak haters deh, dan gadak yang kepoin juga hahaha.

1/30 : Personality [30 Days Writing Challange]

Halo. Im in the wave.

Rasanya ingin memulai dengan kalimat “wah terasa aneh ya karena sudah lama ngga nulis.. bla bla bla”. Ternyata menggelikan.

Satu hari yang lalu, saya nggak sengaja lihat challenge’s post melintas di timeline twitter. Dan tanpa pikir panjang lagi, langsung mengajak sahabat dan pacar untuk ikut. Inilah hari pertama saya untuk 30 days writing challenge.

Tema hari ini : Describe your personality.

Secara terminologi, according to Cambridge Dictionary, personality is the type of person you are, shown by the way you behave, feel and think.

Wow. I think I have thousands words to describe my personality, this is my favorite topic kalo lagi PDKT. Tapi sebenernya.. sampai saat ini pun, saya masih berusaha untuk mengenal diri saya sendiri. Mungkin kembali kepada prinsip bahwa segala sesuatu yang hidup itu memiliki sifat dinamis, begitu pula kepribadiankuww. Most of the time, saya adalah orang yang sangat tangguh, keras kepala, ambisius, gigih, visioner dan independen. Tapi dalam waktu berlainan saya bisa menjadi kebalikan dari itu semua.. lunak, pesimis, nggak ada semangat, nggak punya visi dan dependen. Atau bahkan gabungan dari keduanya. Jadi kalau diminta menyebutkan personality-ku dalam one word, its.. mixed. Maybe its what make me UNIQUE or different from others

1. Ekstrovert

Saya sangat ekstrovert, sepertinya hanya butuh waktu 30 menit I can tell my life to a ‘trusted’ stranger. Dengan dasar pemikiran “untuk apa sih ditutupin”, “HARUS JUJUR”, “semua orang peduli”, “semua orang baik”, “hidup ini perlu berbagi pengalaman” dll. Padahal… setelah hidup 25 tahun, saya baru paham ada banyak hal yang ternyata tidak se-naif itu. Manusia tuh manipulatif, kita nggak bisa percaya 100% asumsi kita. Since I realized that I fact, saya mulai memahami pentingnya filter. Jadi saat ini, ketika sudah melewati stratified filter, barulah saya bisa mengeluarkan ke-ekstrovert-an saya sedikit demi sedikit. Im not ambivent, just a filtered-extrovert.

2. Ambisius

Ah padahal saya ini anak yang que sera-sera, jujur saya orang yang nggak suka bersaing. Imma “just do my best and God do the rest” type of person. Waktu ujian, saya kasih lihat seluruh kertas jawaban saya ke orang-orang. Waktu ulangan, orang-orang pilihin saya tempat duduk strategis supaya saya bisa ngasih mereka jawaban. Saya nggak pernah merasa punya rival, dalam hal apapun. Tapi sepertinya, saya baru paham saya ini ambisius saat saya masuk Fakultas Kedokteran (di akhir masa studi) dan mengalami beberapa kegagalan.

“Kok rasanya sakit banget ya menjadi nomer 3?”

“Kok saya tidak bisa mendapat apa yang saya inginkan padahal saya sudah lakukan yang terbaik?”

“Kok dia yang terpilih? Bukannya saya yang terbaik?”

“Oh.. ternyata saya ambisius…”

Eh.. ini memenuhi terminologi ambisius nggak sih? Hahaha.

3. Moody

Sarah “Moody” Ovinitha. Its my middle name. Mood adalah poros saya dan segala sesuatu berputar terhadapnya. Can anybody help?

4. JUJUR

Dulu saya tuh anaknya pembohong banget, dan satu kebohongan membawa ke kebohongan lainnya. Nggak ada bohong-bohong saya yang ketahuan, tapi Tuhan tegur saya lebih keras dibanding teguran manusia manapun. Emang manusia bisa dibohongi, tapi Tuhan kan engga ya. Sejak saya jatuh cinta sama Tuhan, saya juga jadi nggak mau bohongi manusia. Malu sama Tuhan.

Selain itu, mungkin ajaran ini yang paling dan akan terus saya inget dari Bapak saya “Kejujuran itu menunjukkan integritas dan kualitas diri seseorang. Walaupun nggak ada yang lihat tapi tetap berlaku jujur, dia adalah orang yang sangat berharga.” Sejak saat itu saya nggak pernah bohong, juga nggak suka banget kebohongan.

Mungkin berangkat dari jujur ini, saya juga orang yang sangat loyal.

5. Idealis

Saya nggak bisa jelasin betapa idealisnya saya terhadap hal-hal yang menyangkut peraturan/protokol. Saya paling nggak suka tindakan yang di luar jalur aturan. Saya juga punya beberapa prinsip yang susah saya jelaskan, guys. Yah.. intinya gitu. Saya idealis, tapi masih cukup fleksibel untuk flex kesana dan kemari. Saya hanya selalu kasih certain border untuk prinsip-prinsip yang tidak bisa dilanggar. Contohnya, keep virginity until marriage is my principle, tapi saya sama sekali nggak masalah sama teman yang udah ‘hs’ before marriage. Kalau mereka curhat saya denger, minta pendapat saya kasih pendapat terbaik (dari kacamata medis). Hehehe. Meluas kemana-mana ya penjelasan saya.

Ini 5 hal utama, sisanya mungkin saya jelaskan dalam hari berikutnya.

Sekian.

before 25

Hey, it’s 30 minutes before my birthday. Yay me for surviving another year, though surviving sounds ungracious.

You know how you always confused about what’s in your heart with what’s in your head? This is that period of time. I usually need to stop everything for a moment, zoned out, write it down or talk it out. So that’s pretty much why i am here, writing.

I haven’t got the time and the space since i live in a house of 12 person, with 2 roomates, in the middle of a pandemic. I haven’t got the motivation to do anything besides my routine, i haven’t met anyone i can share the same energy with and i always feel lazy and useless. Furthermore, this is a big deal for me, i am not even a morning person anymore and i sleep at 11PM!

So basically i hit the midlife crisis in he middle of a pandemic. Sometimes i know it’s not always about me. Maybe the pandemic made me feel like it. My mind’s exhausted by covid-19 news, by the fact that it only gets closer to your inner circle, by the fact that i left my parents in the red zone, knowing that i can’t control every step or every people they met, scared to death that anything would happen. This pandemic and midlife crisis scares me too much that i forget how to be gratetful and hopefull. I forgot that being healthy nowadays seems to be the best thing ever, both inside and outside. I forgot that i am loved by who i needed the most.

So bear with me. Here’s to another year of gratitude, another year full of intentions, another year of not taking things for granted, another year of more healthy food recipes, another year of 14 days chloe ting challange, another year of reading, another year of searching from within, another year of letting go. Happy birthday for a fresh starter.

26. People come and go. Let them. Everything happens for a reason.

31. A lady does curse. She curses a fucking lot.

32. Don’t let anyone tell you have to live. You’ll have many decisions to make and you’ll often find yourself questioning yourself, where you’re going, and where you’ll end up. Don’t let this discourage you. You are young, though it may not feel that way. You have so much life ahead of you; grab it by the balls.

33. You got this.

Military Academy' at one of the exercises her right cheek was almost cut open. After that her injury was sewen up badly by an amateur 'Medic' (her c

olleague) and it healed up leaving an 'ugly scar' ,as Ana would explain the patch on her cheek. Other than that, just basic small scars on her body.

Tattoos: None

Personality: Very curious, asks too much question if i may add. Annoying at times. Ana is o

ptimistic, persistent and adventurous person. But at the same time also sneaky, sarcastic at times, inpatient and self-centered in some of the situations. But she tries to avoid it.

Disabilities: Memory loss caused by a strong hit in the head

Likes: Destruction, action, challange, of course besides loving destruction she enjoys sitting in peaceful surroundings reading a book or something.

Dislikes: Being treated unequally, lying, being wrong, not getting what she wants

Fears:

For the reason unknown to her, she has a fear of doctors. Also that annoys the shit out of Medic since she never shows up on her checkups and rarely calls him to heal her on the battlefield. Spiders and anny long legged creature. Also water, duh.

Some special items and weapons (i don't know what i tried to do here, i'm trying to be creative :T WIP): Jar of glue (to slow down the enemies) Wires connecter to the explosives (yes, i know demoman has similar thing just without wires but this is what i got for now) Bear traps More coming when i get inspiration :T

Pets: She used to have a dog. A female Dachshund to be exact called Masha. But the dog is decesed since Ana was 14. (i gave her my beloved dog T-T, i miss you Masha aaaa)

Family: Mother Katarina 52 years old - Status: Alive Current place of residence: Serbia Father Fabian 51 years old - Status: Alive Current place of residence: America

Friends: Katja Feel free to ask

Bio: Being the only child in the wealthy family, Ana never actually had to take care of anything. Her life was easy, well apart from the argues she had with her dad who was obsessed with the fact that she wasn't born male. He wanted his child to continue his work as a mercenary but as a woman, that would be really hard if not impossible. But Ana being stubborn , wanted to prove differently. She comfronted her parents about her plan and while mother was being against it, her dad was actually really supportive. He even told her an old friend of his held an 'Military Academy' where she could be send to until she gets enough training. Of course, she was thrilled about it, she could finialy make her father proud and do something with her life. So, when she turned 15, she went there instead of going to the highschool. At the beginnig of a progam everyone was assigned a partner they were sopose to spend all the years at the academy with. Her partner was a girl named Isabella who was an orphan and was taken in by the owner. Over years they became close friends. At the age of 18, Ana's parents divorced for the unknown causes besides their marriage always being at the edge. But Ana never found out what was the reason her parents finally decided to divorce. Her mother flew back to their home town, allowing Ana to stay with her father until she finishes academy. When she was 25 Ana finaly finished her time at the academy and she was ready to be hired by her father or at least somebody else. But right after her first mission, she had a nasty accident where she hit her head and lost her memory. She was sent back to her mother, her hair shaved of do to the fact her head wound needed to be stiched up. Luckily she didn't get any other mental dissorter apart from memory loss. She didn't remember who the employeer who hired her was, what she was doing, not even the last days from the academy. Years passed, her hair grew back and when she turned 29 she decided to try her luck as a merc in Teufort. After 2 times of her resume being declined she finaly got hired. And that's where the comic starts~

Other:

Ana is obsessed with cleaning, not to that point where she is a Germophobe but she just likes her stuff clean.

She doesn't know how to swim. (i mean, she is a hydrophobe, what do you expect)

Also she doesn't know how to drive, she never found a reason to.

I didn't add that in the ref sheet, but she is wearing a backpack. I mean, where else would she keep all her traps in. Also that makes her run slower since of the heavy 'luggage'.

She is oftenly mistaken as a guy because of her looks and her behaviour.

Her googles were given to her by her dad and for that reason she wears them most of the time.

Her father is a top surgeon and a very powerful mand.

Quotes:

After killing more then one enemy in 20 seconds: ''Oh wow, i progressed.'' or ''You should've just give up'' Destroying a building: ''They were destroyed as they worked, by being hit.'' Kill assist: ''Hey, we make a pretty good team!'' or ''That was awesome!'' Domination: ''Guess i'm winning then!'' or ''You are pretty weak to be honest.'' Dominating a Scout: ''But i thought you were the fastest one 'ere?!'' or ''I'm sorry kid, better luck next time!'' Dominating a Soldier: ''But you have a granade launcher! Use it!'' or ''And you call yourself a soldier?'' Dominating a Pyro: ''Bruh, you got extinguished.'' or ''Guess i'm to cool for ya, eh?'' Dominating a Demoman: ''Hey, your liver is fallin' out.'' or ''Znas, maybe you could get to my level if you stop drinking.'' Dominating a Heavy: ''Hah! And you call ME small!'' or ''Sasha won't save you now big guy!'' Dominating a Engineer: ''Maybe you should hit your machines harder next time.'' or ''A toaster would show more resistance.'' Dominating a Medic: ''I never even liked doctors.'' or ''Well i guess the one needing healing now is you!'' Dominating a Sniper: ''I don't like Aussies anyways.'' (she honestly has nothing against them, she just likes to annoy the heck outta him) or ''You're skinny as hell, tell me, are you anorexic?'' (<-- that is not me trying to make fun of anorexic people, i'm just trying to get into Ana's personality, she's a douche sometimes) Dominating a Spy: ''But i thought you could get invisible?'' or ''Am good enough now asshole?'' Sudden death: ''Aaah, shit...'' or ''W-what? When?'' Set on fire: ''I'm on fire! Literally!'' or ''I'll rather burn alive then jump into the water!'' Hit by a Jarate, Mad Milk etc: ''Ah! Ewww..." or ''Odvratno!'' /gross/ Teleportation: ''Hey, i didn't know this actually exist!'' or ''Thank you Engie!'' Healed by Medic: ''Thanks, i guess?'' or ''Danke doktore!'' or ''Thanks doctor!''

How does social media affect our life?

Social media has a very large influence in our life especially in young people's. There are several websites we can use, but the most famous are Facebook and Instagram. Everyone uses them, whatever if we like it,or not, most of us are addictive of it.

Of course it has several advantages too, so at first I mention a few positive aspects of engaging in social media:

Education:

Teachers are able to easily collaborate and communicate with students and one another.

Grades improve and absenteeism is reduced.

59% of student users report that they use social networking to discuss educational topics and 50% use the sites to talk about school assignments.

I confirm the last one: most of the times I ask for homework from my friends via social media - maybe for me, it's a positive aspect, but for my classmates...?

Job Opportunities:

Great for professionals for marketing, connecting, and finding business opportunities.

Employers find employees and unemployed find work. 89% of job recruiters have hired via LinkedIn, 26% via Facebook, and 15% via Twitter.

Social media sites have created thousands of jobs and new avenues of income.

On Facebook there are several groups of school cooperatives like MelóDiák and Fürge Diák. You can join the group and they help to find you a job with flexible working hours. While I was attending in high school I worked through Fürge Diák.

Awareness/Being Informed:

Information spreads faster online than any other media. More than 50% learn about breaking news on social media.

Social networking provides academic research to everyone with online access, allowing people access to previously unavailable resources.

Social media sites inform and empower individuals to change themselves and their communities.

Of course it's important to know what sites do you can believe and what sites main purpose to get more and more like with fake news.

Social Benefits:

Social media allow people to communicate with friends and this increased online communication strengthens those relationships. 52% of online teens say social media have helped their friendships. 88% say being online helps them stay in touch with friends they don't see regularly.

People make new friends. 57% online teens report making new friends online.

The negative aspects of engaging in social media:

The importance of being liked:

Several teens believe that they aren't pretty , good enough, because they don't get hundreds of likes to their pictures. Teens role models became Instagram stars like the Kardashians. They try to ape them - unfortunatelly many of them succesfully.

Showing a fake side of yourself

It's important to know that many people doesn't show the real side of themselves on social media, rather than they want to be like. I know several girls who in real life self-conscious and shy, while on their picture they look confident and sometimes a little easy too.

This point is connected with the 1st one; they do it for likes; if you get many many likes you are cool; and you give likes to cool people because if they give it back to you you become more "famous". It's works back and forth.

Comparing our lives with others is mentally unhealthy

"One study looked at how we make comparisons to others posts, in “upward” or “downward” directions—that is, feeling that we’re either better or worse off than our friends. It turned out that both types of comparisons made people feel worse, which is surprising, since in real life, only upward comparisons (feeling another person has it better than you) makes people feel bad. But in the social network world, it seems that any kind of comparison is linked to depressive symptoms."(forbes.com)

It can lead to jealousy

We all felt jealous while scrolling down social media. One of your friends posted a picture from Rome, the other from Paris, the other just simply looks like a super model- way better than you- and the other just got a new car for his birthday. And you start to feel sorry for yourself becouse you just been on holiday at Lake Balaton and you just got a surprise party from your loved ones for your birthday-but not a car.

So you start to convince yourself that you have a shitty life- but you don't think about that you share your best days on FB, so probably they are too. Everyone has bad days, and everyone feel jealous for something; who knows, maybe the guy with the birthday car jealous for your birthday party and good friends.

Lack of Privacy:

People, especially the young, are often too open and public with personal information when online. Most don't read privacy policies and may be unaware that their information may be used by third parties, like advertisers, insurance companies, and the IRS. 21% of teens believe it is safe and harmless to post personal information, including photos.

Online advertising policies are an invasion of privacy. If you "like" a brand, you’re giving that company access to your personal information.

Users Vulnerable to Crime:

Social networking sites allow hate groups to recruit and distribute propaganda online.

Security attacks such as hacking, identity theft, phishing scams, and viruses are common online.

68% of users share their real birth date, 63% share the name of their high school, 18% share their phone number, 12% share a pet's name: This information might be used in identity theft.

Criminals use social media to commit crimes. Robbers know when you're away from your home on vacation and stalkers get information about your whereabouts via social media.

Sexual predators find, stalk, and assault victims through social media.

Sexting (texting sexual content) can be a big problem. When teens post sexy photos or comments online, it can lead to criminal charges and child pornography. 88% of "private" sexual images posted to social media are stolen and publicly posted on porn sites without the subject's knowledge.

When we talk about crimes we should mention Blue Whale and Momo too. These are online phenomenones, and nobody knows who started first. The targets are mostly teens, who get different challanges; if they don’t want to do these, they will be threatened. The last challange is suicide. As a parent it’s important to talk about it with our child and let them know that is just a bluff and if one of them-Blue Whale or Momo- find them online they can inform us and ask for help.

Cyber-bullying

We all know that online everyone is braver than face to face. 49.5% of students reported victimization by bullying online and 33.7% admitted to online bullying. Cyberbullied teens were almost twice as likely to kill themselves.

I think if you are/were being bullyed the only solution to stand up yourself. You have to believe that you are not less than the others; we are not alike; and its perfectly normal if you are a little different from the others. Many bullyed teens were became victims because they were different from the others; their grade were really good, or they had a different style from the others, but most importantly the main couse is of being bullyed is self concious attitude or naivety.

I really like the people who think everyone in the world is as kind as them, but unfortunatelly they hve the biggest biffes when they realize that is not true.

The end of friendships

According to one report, 15% of adult users said that something that happened online caused a friendship to end. 12% of adult users said something that happened online caused a face-to-face argument, and for 3% of adults it turned into a physical confrontation.

It happened with me a lot of times that I had a big fight with my friends because we misunderstood each other online. When we write something the other doesn't see our face, hear our voice and we can get the wrong impression if each other.

Less time for face-to-face interaction with loved ones.

47% of 18-34-year-old users reported using social media or texting during meals. 10% of people younger than 25 reported checking their phones and social media during sex.

It has started with TVs - the common program with the family became watching TV together instead of play boardgames together. We can experience everyday that we are talking with someone and we checking our phone during talking. We can't pay attention to the others like this.

Advertising:

While scrolling down on social media we can see a lot of ads and we can spend our money more easily sometimes for unnecessary products.

The social media's influence to our romantic relationships

According to several reports when a couple post almost everyday a picture of themselves there is a problem in their relationship what they want to hide from the world-sometimes even from themselves too.

It can couse jeaously in a relationship if our partner likes someone elses picture regulary; it doesn't matter if it's a person who the other knows personally or a social media star who lives from her/his provocative pictures: it can induce a feeling in the other person in the relationship that he or she doesn't good enough for his or her partner.

Social media give an opportunity to get know people from the other gender and an innocent flirt can cause an end of a serious relationship.
