hiiii my name is naoko !!! its so nice 2 meet uuu
im from japan and im proudly bi, but sometimes it's hard to express my desire for women bc i hve been raised up around ppl who are v traditional about these things. it is something i hope to improve on as i grow older ♡
i have apraxia of speech, which is a speech disorder where my brain n my mouth r not rlly well connected, so i am unable to speak! many ppl know this as 'muteness'. i mostly speak in sign language, and currently know 4 fluently, JSL, BSL, ASL, FSL (fun fact: the developer of american sign language learned sign language in France, which means ASL is more closer to FSL than BSL. wow!).
osaka is where i spent most of my life, but hve also lived in london n iceland for a long time. my dad works in japan but sometimes he has to be in hong kong n sometimes i tag along w him. i am usually between london n osaka n i hope to do further education n the spend the rest of my life in london !!!
my mom is japanese n my dad is indian. i am v grateful tht i was raised by two of the best parents in the world!!! i love them so so so much n the thought of ever disappointing n hurting them mkes me SO unbearably sad. i hve two sisters who i also love very dearly n they mean the entire universe to me. even talking about them mkes me wnna cry.
i also have a weekend job as a teacher/tutor for children under 8 who are non-verbal. i enjoy the job so much (even though it pays RLLY BADLY), and i think once i finish college i would like to continue being a teacher.
i perform ballet and gymnastics at state-level (ya i luv to flex about it OKAY... im v proud of it). my chances of being 'professional' in the sense tht i can compete internationally is less than zero, but i would love to eventually get to nationals!! i rlly enjoy ice skating too <3
oh, i also have 9 cats. meow
