Adrian’s current favourite things in life, in no particular order.

  • Activity: fiddling with small things, preferably something moldable, such as a lump of sticky putty, a small agglomeration of Plus Plus pieces, or a bread bag clip band. He has something like that in his pocket at all times, if not in his hands. Also: watching movies.
  • Colour: green
  • Movie: the 3rd Lord of the Rings movie (with all the big battle scenes), and Megamind.
  • Video game: Spiderman, which he has nearly finished, and Fortnite.
  • Book: Kalle Anka Pocket
  • Food: hamburgers, without any ketchup, mustard or other dressing or sauce
  • Fruit: raspberries and flat peaches
  • Toy: Plus Plus
  • Clothes: hoodies, shorts, and loose oversized T-shirts. Also socks and underwear with a food pattern, such as pizza slices or fruit. He’s very fond of his one pair of Happy Socks with bananas on them.
  • Music: “Natural” by Imagine Dragons
  • Best friends: Edward and Silas
  • Looking forward to: our Estonia trip, starting third grade, and his birthday.
  • School subject: maths
  • Game or movie characters: Electro (a Marvel supervillain) and Leviathan (a Fortnite skin)
  • Future job: builder
  • Superpower: to be able to change his shape like Plastic Man does
  • Toe: big toe. (Do you have a favourite toe? I don’t. But Adrian definitely does. He likes socks with holes where the big toe can peek out.)
  • Thing: his plush fleece blanket. It even comes with us on many trips.
  • Way of travelling: ferry to Estonia
  • Drink: homemade elderflower cordial
  • Shop: Gamestop, with all its Funko Pop figures.
  • Time: lunchtime, because lunch is good
  • Ice cream: Magnum Strawberry White
  • Animal: koalas, because they are funny, and narwhals, because they are cool.
  • Season: autumn, because that’s when his birthday is
  • Youtuber: Matinbum and his video game videos
