Hello, I’m Dannon! I’ve been in the studyblr community for quite some time now. I thought since I’m starting my freshmen year in college, this would be the perfect time to put out some original content. I want to document my college experience and hopefully motivate and aid other students that are going through similar experiences and issues. Thanks for reading and stay tuned for the obscure world that is my life:
-I’m Dannon (Yes, like the yogurt)
-I’m 18 years old
-I’m moving from Northern Virginia to Manhattan, New York
-I’m majoring in Fashion Merchandising at LIM College
- Rn I am taking a gap semester
-I consider myself a very eccentric and urban person
-I love to create and experience new things (so feel free to talk to me)
I plan to do updates every Sunday. As I am in a gap semester I will be posting pictures and descriptions of my college preparation process. I start my NYC journey in January. Feel free to message me and ask me any questions. This is a sideblog. I follow back @vxn-bye

it used to be pretty common for there to be cats on boats. they’d take care of any rodents who would chew on ropes or wires and spread diseases. sailors were also superstitious and believed that having a cat aboard would bring good luck! this belief passed on to their wives, who kept cats - especially black ones who were believed to be extra lucky - at home in order to keep their husbands safe when at sea.
another popular superstition? that if a cat came aboard it was a sign of luck, but if it only boarded halfway and then left, it was a sign of bad luck.
most ship’s cats are only found in modern times on private vessels, but they have roots going back to early history. one such example is the Vikings, who took cats with them on expeditions.
I learnt something today that I think is just beautiful.
My grandmother was a very sick woman and pretty much housebound for the last of her life. She derived great pleasure from watching her neighbour’s backyard chickens. She adored these chickens. Every time I called, she had new chicken drama to tell me—think Linda Belcher and the raccoons.
It turns out that at some point, their neighbour was no longer able to have chickens because due to a disability he could no longer afford to keep them. My grandfather, upon learning this, immediately used his spending money to keep the neighbour in both chickens and chicken feed so that my grandmother would have chickens to watch since my grandfather didn’t have time to keep chickens at their home.
He did this for ten years, guys. TEN YEARS he secretly funded his neighbour’s backyard chickens so that my grandmother would have chickens to watch every day until the day she died.
