Hola everyone. For today's video, because I'm on holiday and I'm quite
relaxed I had a shiatsu massage yesterday, which was really relaxing
so I'm going to do a 50 things about me thing and so I don't forget any of the
things I've got my little notebook here and so let's get started.
My name is Suzy as you know; I'm French I'm Spanish and Martiniquaise, it's in the Caribbean.
I am bilingual English and French. I am learning how to speak Spanish because I
can read Spanish but (...) quite well, but I can't speak it as well. I've been living in
the UK for basically five years. Surprisingly or not I'm allergic to
chocolate. I really like horror movies. I could (work)
and spend hours watching horror movies and that's why, also I've got a subscription to
Shudder which is a (...) it's like a Netflix, bur for like horror movies
and TV shows; they're like horror and gory etc. it's quite (...) it's quite great as a
streaming services and it's full of horror movies and I really like it. I (...) actually quite
introvert and quiet and I'll put a picture somewhere over here or here but it
took me about three times, three years, when I was going to London Tattoo
Convention to speak to someone who I thought was really cool; he's got (...)
his attire is just wonderful, he spend hours doing it and I was just like "Oh my god
this guy is awesome" and I needed to speak, but it took
me three years to have the courage and the bravery to go and ask him for
like picture with him and I'm known to be quite quiet, and like the quiet one in
friends groups usually. I've got three first names which is quite long
in addition to my surnames it's: Suzy Margot and the third one which start with
an 'R'. I work in theatre; I've been working professionally in theatre now
for three years I think yes three years. I can write runes; I've got a runes here
I think you can see and that's another thing I've got two tattoos so
the first one I've done was this one, about four years ago I think and I've
got this one here I (... I don't know if you can see, but it's like because it goes all
around my here. Yeah I've got two tattoos. I'm planning on the third one, I don't
know when it's going to be done. Those things takes quite, usually quite some
time to actually being done because there's a lot of reflection because you
know it's that's for life and the pain yeah so because it's last for life I
want to take my time before doing it, but there's going to be another one. It's
going to be here just to complete the arm. Yeah I've got two tattoos for now.
I studied Chinese at school for like three years. With my class we went to China. We
went to Shanghai, Beijing, in two small towns. They was like probably like a
village near, I think it was Shanghai, yeah about, when I was 16. I also
studied Latin for three years as well. So for like the three last years of
college and yeah it was quite fun actually. I got she understand the roots of
Latin based languages and also (...) if we were nice sometimes at the end
of the class for like 10 15 minutes we had story time in Latin and
surprisingly also because probably were a bunch of nerds that was quite
enjoyable and yeah that was quite nice actually.
Speaking of Latin, I went to Italy and Reading Festival on
my own last year for my 25th birthday and I had the best time. That was just
great. Even though I was on my own, I went for the Reading Festival, I made friends
with people at the festival, that's great even if it was raining some time, it's
just (...) good music (...) fun time; I could not could I chose that I could to drink gin
and tonic before like 11:00 it was great; you shouldn't do that, but you know
because you can't take alcohol inside the arena, I said oh I don't know how
you know those little cans which are like ye high, you can get from
Tesco (...) Yeah that was great and then Italy for like four days. I went to Rome.
I visited like all the touristy stuff like the Trevi Fontaine and the Pantheon,
all those places and that was quite (...) very beautiful. It was quite warm, because it was
during the heatwave I almost died by the end, because I'm not (...)
I don't like the heat strangely, but yeah that was quite great. And speaking of
spending some on your own, I go to the movies quite often; not quite often
pretty much all the time on my own. For some reason I was vegetarian for about
two years back in college and I'm not anymore because Bacon's so good, and
saucisson and chorizo and all that kind of stuff, it's delicious. I don't admit it quite often, but actually it's tear up
quite easily watching TV shows, movies and documentaries and so I tear up,
sometimes cry. The next thing about me, I find it quite funny, because it's that I
didn't go to (...) also I'm atheist, we're not a religious family, my mum doesn't believe
in God, I think, but my two older siblings went to Sunday school and I didn't and
my (...) the reason because (...) my mum didn't put me to Sunday school was because I was
into witchcraft apparently when I was about like 5, 6, 8, 7,
9, 10, 11, 12 (...) apparently I've been in witchcraft for
quite some time into witchcraft yeah that's ... English; into witchcraft
for quite some time. Speaking of witchcraft actually I think
my mum had some truth in that, I had made my own grimoire, which is it like sorcery
book, just like in Charmed; it was about, I think, about this big and I made it up with
like A4 paper and the back of very hard back school notebooks and I think the
lining was like red-ish thing. I don't have it here, it's still at my mum's but I still
got it. I don't (...) I think I didn't mentioned, but I
am 26. I failed my A-levels, so the baccalauréat, twice, but I started my
studies again about three years ago. I've studied Community Arts Management.
First Community Arts Admin and then I went on to Community Arts Management and
that wasn't an apprenticeship and that's the level of a-levels actually so now
technically I've got my A-levels. I've got a wrist injury because I played
rugby 10-15 years ago; how old was I (...) yeah 10-15 years ago.
Water is my favorite beverage and I was actually not like 'yeah I'm gonna drink
water to like I have a nice transition' but no I was going thirsty. I was saying, I
think because it got cut, that I really love water, because we're lucky enough in
the Western world to have access to clean and drinkable water and so when
it's fresh it's very nice and then he tasty; although there's no taste in
water, although sometimes we can tell the difference, not on tap water, also in the
tap water you can taste the difference some time between a good tap water (...) I also
if you live in London you should get one of them Bobble
bottle with the filter thing, because the water is very hard in London
and the UK especially as well and with (...) hard because of the limescale in it and
limescale it's not very good for you and your teeth, so you should drink filtered
water or like water from like Evian or the likes or the filter one because you
can keep it for a long time and also it's a bit nicer to the earth than
getting a new little bottle, like every time you go to the store and there's (...)
There's like Brita and all that, but yeah all that to say that I really like water.
And speaking of water I really like the sounds of heavy rain. I like the music of
heavy rain and because then the atmosphere is a bit fresh, it'scooler and
it smells nicer and free of some of the pollution and London's very polluted
city, so it's got nice to go outside or just to pop your head out of the window
just to have this smell of nature. I think I mentioned already making my own
grimoire, so my own spell book when I was younger, but I used to do also my own
magazine which was called Angels Magazine, I think. That was probably on
witchcraft as well and stuff like Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angels, the
TV show, Charmed, Supernatural, spells like maybe food recipe or stuff like that and
I still got it. It's not here with me in London, it's at my mom's, but yeah I used to
be that kind of literature nerd and yeah I was especially quite fun to do (...) I was
the only reader of it, but I got quite (...) I was (...) arts and crafty heavy kind of person
and I'm still I'm (...) also I really love Halloween. I said "oh my god also" because I've got one of them
thing I really love, it's from my previous, my latest secret Santa, it's a
colouring book and so this thing, I think you can see (...) in the camera bit,
this is from there and this as well not from this one, but it's from my mum's and
it's ongoing, I've been going at it for like, my god forever, because it's massive, it's
from a gift from my mum (...) I very like doing arts and crafts thing and I got very
exciting about this, because not only, it's the thing about me I really love
Halloween and I really think it should be a holiday, like a bank holiday and it's just the
best time of the year, so like when I saw that I was like 'oh my god this is just
the best present ever', alongside the other best present ever
which was given to me by the (...) Secret Santa (...)
previous of this one, which was also the best manager you can dream of, she got me
because I'm a massive fan, that's another thing, I'm a massive fan of Sister Act,
she got me the soundtrack, the original soundtrack of the movies, so I really love the Sister Act
like the first one, the Sister Act 2 and I know like the lyrics almost by heart and also the dancing, I watch the video (...) movies quite a lot and
the videos on YouTube and like especially Joyful Joyful. I do know most of the
Oh Happy Day choreography and the moving around, especially the Joyful Joyful one
and when it gets to the end, even if I'm just listening to it and not watching the video I
know that comes to the end they're all like (...) like this and that ends like this and
then win obviously, but yeah I know that movies by heart .
Yes I really love Halloween. I'm a arty crafty, I made my own magazine and yeah I
love the arts, can you guess I work in theatre. What a surprise. Carrie, the version
of 2002 is my favourite movie. I think I've said I'm an atheist,
but although I'm a atheist I used to believe, when I was younger; I've always
been atheist, I've never believed in god, but I used to believe in ghosts and spirits
and all supernatural stuff. I don't anymore, but yeah I used to believe in
spirits and all that kind of things. That's probably why I've created Angels,
the magazine, and make my own grimoire and also probably why
my mum didn't send me to Sunday school. I've mentioned it earlier with me being
very the quiet and shy and introvert so (...) I've mentioned going to the London Tattoo
Convention and I really like this (...) this convention, a tattoo convention
obviously, here in London, in Tobacco Dock and I really like going there
because it's very great; (there's) live shows. So the shows like the Fuel Girls or last
year we had The Circus of Men, which was also nice. There's also some very nice
arts and painting and exhibition as well at the convention, so it's not only
about tattoo, but it's also about art and it's a very nice one and beautiful and
great. And there's competitions as well; tattoo competition
and yeah it's just a good convention, you should really go. I ran three Tough
Mudders. I still cannot believe it, but I did it. I ran three Tough Mudder and yeah
it's a very fun thing to do, it's very hard. I don't know if I'll run another one,
probably will, maybe like a half one or maybe like a full one. I also run every
year, like another extra thing of those 50 things about me, but every year
since three years now I also to run the Pretty Muddy race. That's the Cancer
Research UK race to help raise awareness on breast cancer and to give
money because that's the main thing about these events, it's not only to
raise awareness, but it's also to help raise money for their research. I can make my
own churros with this lovely churrera. It's not my best Spanish accent, but it's a
churros making machine. It's the Bernar brand from the 1950s. I am a massive fan
of Eurovision. It's just so fun to watch even though it's like so
ridiculous sometimes because of some of the songs.
Speaking of shows, my favorite non French TV show is Sense8. You probably
noticed with my previous videos and because also
you'll notice if you haven't yet in the future, because I'm probably gonna talk
about Sense8 a lot, because it's simply the best TV show ever. It's just great, like
I said I think it was in the (...) I think in my first video, where I talk about
Sense8, videos (...) stuff you should watch if you want to learn English,
French or Spanish. And also, this TV show, because of that should not have been
cancelled. So because of this community, sense of community, also because it's
just the best TV show Netflix should not have canceled, because yes Netflix had
the great idea to cancel Sense8 after 2 seasons, even though
three more were planned. So now they've given us a two-hour special, not to a two hour
finale like they've been saying, but, and we'll keep fighting for more, but yeah it
should not (...) if you haven't watch it yet, it should not discourage you to not watch
it because it's be canceled, but yeah those two first season they're just
great and like I said we've got a two hour specials; two hour special coming up next
year and hopefully a third season. Lana Wachowski is writing it at the moment
in hope Netflix renew Sense8 for at least season three and
hopefully for more. And speaking of hopefully for more, my favorite TV show ever is a
French one, it's called Kamelott. It's about King Arthur and the quest of the grail.
It set obviously around that time and it's got a very sarcastic humour and;
which is just my favourite kind of humour and it's just so (...) it's got so much sass
as well. I think you can see on the video that I'm wearing a Gryffindor
necklace, because I am a Gryffindor, which is just the best house ever isn't
it? It is. And because I'm obviously a fan of Harry Potter I've read all the books,
I've seen all the movies. I even saw the play after waiting for a year and 10
days, after booking, last Sunday; as in filming Sunday
so like two days ago and so that's the first full book series I've ever owned, but
actually the first series of book I've ever had actually is a Goosebumps, so the
first series I've started is Goosebumps, the series. So that's like small short horror
stories for children. So like stories about creepy dolls and ghosts and weird
creature. And yeah, so stories like that for just children's. They're very small book,
about this thin I think, but they're all very good and although I'm an adult now,
because I'm 26, I'm still going to buy them books, because I'm still missing
some of them and yeah. And speaking of books, I'm (...) as book collection, I'm trying
to make a collection of all Stephen King's books, which is my favorite author
and all (...) all his books as Stephen King and all this book as non-Stephen King;
I think he's done like a few with a pen name. And Stephen King and Tim
Curry are responsible for my fear of clowns, because clowns are devilish and
horrible creature and they are mean and evil. And yeah they're terrible and I
really don't like them. I've been a zombie in a horror movie; I'll put a picture
somewhere here, and yeah it was actually quite a fun experience.
I enjoyed this experience because it was very fun to do and although one of my scene
was under the rain, because we were shooting some scenes in the forest, and
so it's obviously outside, and the mother nature decided to drop rain upon us and the
lucky one who got to shoot a scene under the rain was me, obviously (...), but even because
of, with that it was just still fun. And I think I'll keep a good memory of that
acting experience, because after we were all done, I've decided to, although
technically we're not allowed in France to keep horrific makeup like this in
public transport, but I kept my makeup on so I could scare my little sister back home
and I've succeeded. She was so scared. Something I used to do, read dictionaries for fun.
Because why not. I am Echelon and I am Echelon even
with songs like Walk on Water which was released earlier today, so August 22nd
and yeah it's a great band like very great, very
great music, so far. And I'll be an Echelon forever. And just like I'll be a Sense8
forever. So, I am We. Once again Sense8, but I
am We, I think if I understood quite well, it just means that human beings and
humanity are in a way just one being, because we're all connected in certain ways.
When you connect with friends or family or people you fell in love with etc. And yeah, so
we're all one in the end and yeah, I am We. Here you go guys that's it for today's video.
I hope you enjoyed it. I think I've said more than 50 things about me, probably
because sometimes when I talk I can't stop talking, but if you recognize yourself or
if we've got things in common, do say in the comments. And if you liked the
video do liked, comments and I hope to see you soon. Bye.
( end credits eerie fantastic movie like song )
