craig's made me do this

 Craig, I hate you for making me do this. 

Okay, well my name is Mia Lingxia, but I go by Mia because who tf has time to say Mia Lingxia?? I was adopted from China (allegedly) by 2 Italian parents. I've grown up in the South Melbourne area but I moved to Bali when I was 10 and lived there until I was 12 so my parents could try and fix their marriage. After Bali, we were meant to come straight back to Melbourne but it was gonna be winter and we didn't wanna go straight from nice and warm to freezing cold so we went to Italy for a few months.  

I have a job as a waitress at a cafe and the pay is great, but I don't get paid enough to deal with people and their stupid ass questions. I did work at McDonald's but I quit after a year because I was being groomed by my manager lol. 

I live with my mom because dad left (he had an affair with some ugly woman from Italy. I am a girl's girl, but she really looks like a stereotypical lesbian), and we've got a dog and a cat. We had 2 dogs, but one dog died suddenly a couple months ago and now he's buried in the backyard. We've lived in the same house for the whole time I've lived in Melbourne. It's cute but it's kinda falling apart. But now my parents are divorced so mom wants to move houses to rid herself of the bad memories. 

Now let's move on to my mental/physical issues. Let's start with physical. SO. I have De Quervain's Tenosynovitis and tendonitis in my left wrist which basically means that the tendon in my wrist is inflamed and something pops. I have helicobacter pylori which means that my stomach makes more acid than usual and has a bacterium that causes inflammation of my stomach lining. I should mention that this also leads to stomach ulcers and stomach cancer!! and level 7 iron. So yay. Lucky me. I have ADHD, PTSD, anxiety, depression and adjustment disorder oh and an eating disorder apparently. 

My hobbies are reading (I have read 102 books so far this year), writing music, crying myself to sleep, and satanic rituals. I listen to all types of music except for country, classical and techno. I currently can't stop listening to Not Like Us by Kendrick Lamar for good reason. I listen to Hamilton a lot. Like it's kind of a problem. I enjoy listening to Queen, Michael Jackson (despite the pedophilia allegations, may he rest in peace), Elton John, Evanescence, and things like that. I play 5 instruments, those being guitar, ukulele, bass, piano and I sing. I used to play cricket, soccer and I have my blackbelt in taekwondo. 

Growing up I wanted to be a teacher, then in high school it changed to a lawyer, then a psychologist, then a music therapist and now I'm back to teaching. But I want to be a primary school teacher because I can't deal with teenagers, with specialization in special education (working with neurodivergent children) and music. I went back to teaching after a teacher told me and I quote: 'I don't care if you cry or slit your wrists when you fail'. No teacher should be saying that and she told me I'd be a shit teacher so I'm spiting her. Although, I vomit and have a panic attack when I speak in public so we'll see how this goes. 

I have a habit of choosing abusive men to date. Like one of my exes slapped me across the face with his willy wonka whenever I made him mad. Like sir?? You need therapy. And yes, it's okay to laugh, that's why I added it. 

I hope you enjoyed my trauma dump, and thank you for coming to my tedtalk xoxo
