Crochet amigurumi.

I also used to play various musical instruments for personal enjoyment.

Just from looking at the texture of the batter in the pic and I have a feeling that this should be really good.

I enjoyed cooking and baking as well as needle felting and crochet to make amigurumi toys.

I also liked to read, study languages and collect the odd die-cast model cars.

No longer as much since I rarely have time anymore, but I played piano and other keyboard instruments, and dabbled in drawing.

This must be what it is meant when they tell us we share 50% of DNA with a banana.

I don't understand, even if the airline doesn't maintain any wheelchairs of their own, under special circumstances like these, can't they simply borrow one from airport services or something? Surely the airport has some wheelchairs around? Rather than have the situation end up in the utterly humiliating way in did.

I am living with chronic vertigo. I don't know if it counts as an illness, but having this condition has made day to day living rather difficult. I feel strange all the time, there's this constant swaying sensation, my head feels like it is wrapped in layers of gauze and on really bad days even my vision appears clouded. I can't stand for prolonged periods when even sitting down doing nothing much feels like a drag.

I appear outwardly fine though, and even my family members forget that some basic actions that they think nothing of no longer come with ease for me. Everything I do, even holding onto, say, a plate, when I am doing the dishes, I am doing it with utmost deliberate effort because the internal swaying sensations I feel have me thinking I am going to tip over any moment and I will end up dropping whatever I am holding.

Cooking is not necessary for overnight oats. I used steel cut myself, but the texture of these oats prepared this way may be chewier than you expect or are used to though, if you have always been heat-cooking them.

Just look up overnight oats and there are plenty of recipes and suggestions, some even using yogurt instead of milk. Here's one from Martha Stewart for starters,

Overnight oats which you can prepare the night before. Soak some oats in milk and keep it in the fridge for at least 2 hours for the oats to soak up all the liquids. Toss in your favourite toppings, like freshly chopped fruits, or even some chocolate, and it's ready to eat.

Just 3 seconds. The Oreos manufactured in my part of the world are very porous and absorb liquid way too fast, and I don't like having my cookie crumble and break into my beverage just mere milliseconds away from touching my lip.

A pair of shoes of proper width EE. My feet are fairly wider than average, and suffered for years in improper width footwear. Never thought my feet could actually feel comfortable in footwear ever.

Nothing usually. I prefer to focus on solely the task at hand, even if it's just eating. I find that when I try to watch TV or videos while eating, I will simply end up not concentrating on either and then take forever to finish my food, or get nothing out of what I was trying to watch.

Have always wanted to be able to play the cello, whose sound simply resonates with me.
