0:00:06.820,0:00:07.780
Hey everyone!

0:00:08.000,0:00:13.520
So about more than a month ago, I asked on Instagram to ask me questions for a Q&A video,

0:00:13.520,0:00:15.120
and I'm finally doing it!

0:00:15.120,0:00:16.720
Sorry it's taken so long.

0:00:16.800,0:00:18.560
I thought it was about time to do another one of these,

0:00:18.560,0:00:20.560
because the last one I did was when I had

0:00:20.560,0:00:24.160
something like 250,000 less subscribers than I do now,

0:00:24.160,0:00:25.040
which is nuts!

0:00:25.040,0:00:27.660
I can't even comprehend how many people that is,

0:00:27.660,0:00:28.240
it- it blows my mind,

0:00:28.500,0:00:29.160
But, hi!

0:00:29.240,0:00:30.680
Thanks for being here,

0:00:30.680,0:00:31.780
thanks for subscribing,

0:00:31.780,0:00:34.340
and lets get into a Q&A session!

0:00:34.340,0:00:36.280
"What is your favourite thrift store in Sydney?"

0:00:36.280,0:00:38.280
Villawood Anglicare

0:00:38.300,0:00:40.820
I'm gonna regret saying this to so many people,

0:00:40.860,0:00:43.320
because you're all gonna steal all my stuff now,

0:00:43.320,0:00:46.360
but, it's the greatest op shop.

0:00:46.360,0:00:47.580
It's like a sorting warehouse,

0:00:47.660,0:00:51.460
and all of the clothes are put into giant bins,

0:00:51.540,0:00:55.040
and you basically go dumpster diving into those bins.

0:00:55.100,0:00:58.000
It's like all the men's, women's and children's clothes are all thrown in together,

0:00:58.060,0:01:00.360
and then you buy by the kilo,

0:01:00.360,0:01:02.040
so everything is 8 dollars a kilo.

0:01:02.280,0:01:03.640
It's an amazing place,

0:01:03.800,0:01:06.520
but also quite far out, it's hard to get to, so,

0:01:06.520,0:01:10.080
when I'm able to go that's my favourite place in the world to visit.

0:01:10.080,0:01:12.760
"If you were a vegetable which one would you like to be?"

0:01:12.920,0:01:13.900
I'd be a sweet potato.

0:01:13.940,0:01:15.680
Kinda matches my hair colour,

0:01:15.680,0:01:17.300
yeah, and I love sweet potato,

0:01:17.740,0:01:19.740
which means I would eat myself...

0:01:19.740,0:01:21.040
[silence]

0:01:21.540,0:01:24.100
I also got a lot of questions about dogs,

0:01:24.100,0:01:28.880
because on my Instagram I have made it well known that I am obsessed with dogs at the moment,

0:01:28.880,0:01:31.160
I'm so sad that I don't actually own a dog,

0:01:31.160,0:01:33.320
and my life goal is to own two dogs.

0:01:33.360,0:01:34.680
I'll answer a couple of these

0:01:34.680,0:01:35.700
"What's your favourite breed of dog?"

0:01:35.840,0:01:41.840
My favourite breed, aesthetically, is Dachshunds - Sausage dogs - Dachshunds? Dachshunds? Dachshunds.

0:01:41.940,0:01:43.080
Not sure how to pronounce that.

0:01:43.180,0:01:44.220
They're so cute,

0:01:44.220,0:01:45.880
they have such silly little legs

0:01:45.880,0:01:51.500
But I personally wouldn't get one because I don't think their personalities are particularly what would suit me.

0:01:51.520,0:01:56.560
If I were to choose a breed of dog to own for myself it would be a mutt, a rescue mutt,

0:01:56.820,0:01:58.020
Labrador-ish size,

0:01:58.700,0:02:02.420
A mix of Labrador and Golden Retriever and Terrier would be awesome.

0:02:02.720,0:02:03.220
Yeah.

0:02:03.220,0:02:04.560
"What sort of music do you enjoy?"

0:02:04.560,0:02:06.680
Well, if you have watched the videos on my channel,

0:02:06.680,0:02:07.560
you will know

0:02:07.560,0:02:09.320
I really like chiptunes, and glitch-hop

0:02:10.020,0:02:12.180
The genres of music that I generally listen to are

0:02:12.240,0:02:16.660
glitch-hop, alternative rock, indie music, electronic dance music,

0:02:16.740,0:02:18.420
modern swing, Australian hip-hop,

0:02:18.420,0:02:22.660
Basically anything that you can dance to, anything that's upbeat and positive, I really like.

0:02:23.100,0:02:23.600
Yeah!!

0:02:23.600,0:02:24.720
"Do you think it's cool to have an accent?"

0:02:25.560,0:02:26.320
I don't have an accent.

0:02:26.320,0:02:27.520
You have an accent.

0:02:27.640,0:02:28.920
It's all relative.

0:02:28.920,0:02:31.660
I don't have a particularly strong Australian accent,

0:02:31.800,0:02:34.220
so oftentimes, um,

0:02:34.220,0:02:37.620
people in Australia will actually ask me where I'm from,

0:02:37.620,0:02:39.480
'cause they think I have an accent.

0:02:39.480,0:02:42.220
They often think I'm from England or America?

0:02:42.720,0:02:43.680
[pause] um...

0:02:43.680,0:02:46.380
My voice does not sound like that either.

0:02:46.380,0:02:48.760
Yup, that's what I have to say about that. Yup!

0:02:48.760,0:02:50.640
"Crunchy or smooth peanut butter?"

0:02:50.640,0:02:53.940
Crunchy, always, who are those psychopaths that like smooth peanut butter?

0:02:53.940,0:02:55.280
"Who is your favorite Power Puff Girl?"

0:02:55.280,0:02:58.540
Definitely Blossom, I even have a Blossom handbag,

0:02:58.540,0:03:00.460
and it's the most amazing thing that I own.

0:03:00.460,0:03:03.200
Actually, I say that about half of the clothes that i own.

0:03:03.200,0:03:05.260
But it's one of the amazing things that I own.

0:03:05.260,0:03:07.300
"What's a weird food combo that you enjoy?

0:03:07.300,0:03:08.960
Mine is banana, cheese, and eggs on toast."

0:03:08.960,0:03:09.840
That's disgusting!

0:03:10.500,0:03:11.060
[laugh]

0:03:11.320,0:03:14.920
But so's mine, my weird food combo that I really like

0:03:14.940,0:03:17.500
is vinegar on chips, not like hot chips,

0:03:17.680,0:03:20.540
like, crisps, chips, like the...

0:03:20.960,0:03:22.880
Like salt and vinegar chips.

0:03:22.880,0:03:24.200
With more vinegar on top.

0:03:24.200,0:03:27.480
I really like vinegar, basically vinegar on anything.

0:03:27.740,0:03:30.560
I like vinegar on dried noodles as well,

0:03:30.740,0:03:33.460
especially when it makes it go all soggy.

0:03:34.500,0:03:35.860
Pretty disgusting.

0:03:36.080,0:03:40.080
"I love you!? Does that count as a question?! Gahhhhh!!!??"

0:03:41.440,0:03:42.720
No. Not a question.

0:03:42.720,0:03:45.920
"What is your favourite lollies?" Anything that's extremely sour.

0:03:46.520,0:03:48.120
Just, I love sour things

0:03:48.580,0:03:49.140
so much!

0:03:49.140,0:03:54.040
"Would you rather have cereal dust permanently stuck under your nails, or nails permanently stuck in your cereal?"

0:03:54.340,0:03:56.660
I guess I would just not eat cereal.

0:03:56.660,0:04:00.660
'Cause I don't want cereal dust stuck under my nails, gross.

0:04:00.660,0:04:04.860
I would just have to forego cereal, which would be really sad because I love cereal, but

0:04:04.860,0:04:08.540
if there's always gonna be nails in my cereal, that's a definite choking hazard, so...

0:04:09.380,0:04:09.900
Yeah.

0:04:10.080,0:04:12.000
Nails in my cereal, and then not eat cereal.

0:04:12.000,0:04:13.280
If I'm allowed to do that.

0:04:13.340,0:04:16.320
"Why do you dye your hair in orange?"

0:04:16.620,0:04:17.540
[pause]

0:04:17.900,0:04:20.260
Because I've always wanted to be a natural redhead.

0:04:20.260,0:04:22.840
[gasp] Oh my gosh and the other day, I was waiting for a tram,

0:04:22.840,0:04:24.780
and it was a really hot day, it was really sunny,

0:04:24.780,0:04:26.720
and I didn't have any sunscreen on,

0:04:26.720,0:04:30.260
and this redheaded guy holding a bottle of sunscreen came up to me and was like,

0:04:30.260,0:04:33.540
"Yeah, you and me, we're both redheads, we need to look after each other,

0:04:33.540,0:04:34.540
have some sunscreen."

0:04:34.540,0:04:36.980
He totally mistook me for a natural redhead and I was like,

0:04:37.240,0:04:38.780
"Thaaaaanks."

0:04:38.820,0:04:44.340
And, um, hoped he wouldn't notice my- my roots, that aren't red.

0:04:44.340,0:04:47.620
But I was so excited in being mistaken for a natural redhead.

0:04:47.980,0:04:48.620
Anyway,

0:04:48.620,0:04:51.800
why does anyone do anything? That's a weird question.

0:04:51.800,0:04:54.400
Next! Ooh! Here's a question I get asked a lot.

0:04:54.400,0:04:57.360
"If you're Australian, then why don't you use the metric system when you sew?"

0:04:57.360,0:04:59.200
So, I have four reasons for this.

0:04:59.200,0:05:03.380
One, is that by using inches you're working with smaller numbers, which is just easier to work with,

0:05:03.380,0:05:05.380
easier to do maths with in your head and stuff.

0:05:05.620,0:05:08.760
Two is that I learned to sew by using inches,

0:05:08.760,0:05:14.100
because I watched a lot of American YouTube tutorials, and read a lot of American sewing blogs,

0:05:14.100,0:05:18.260
and I also learned to sew using vintage patterns, which also used inches.

0:05:18.440,0:05:20.200
Three, vintage patterns,

0:05:20.200,0:05:24.200
they also use inches, so if you're using them, it's just easier

0:05:24.200,0:05:26.140
if your brain's already working in inches.

0:05:26.200,0:05:32.320
And four is that most of my audience come from America, so using inches is just kind of easier

0:05:32.440,0:05:34.600
for the majority of my audience.

0:05:34.600,0:05:36.040
Sorry if you do use the metric system,

0:05:36.040,0:05:37.660
but there's plenty of calculators

0:05:37.660,0:05:40.400
that you can use to convert one to the other, online.

0:05:40.400,0:05:41.860
And any maths that I do,

0:05:41.860,0:05:44.360
with dividing or multiplying things,

0:05:44.360,0:05:46.640
you can use either centimeters or inches, it doesn't matter.

0:05:46.640,0:05:49.420
"Do you know anyone that calls sandals 'double pluggers'?"

0:05:50.740,0:05:53.820
[laughing] No? What?

0:05:53.820,0:05:55.800
Who calls sandals double pluggers?

0:05:55.800,0:05:57.540
Is that like an Australian thing?

0:05:57.540,0:06:00.720
"Would you rather always have to say what's on your mind, or never speak again?"

0:06:01.000,0:06:01.960
The first one.

0:06:02.060,0:06:04.780
I pretty much do anyway,

0:06:04.780,0:06:07.800
so I don't think it would change things too much for me.

0:06:07.800,0:06:10.040
I would definitely seem a lot more rude,

0:06:10.060,0:06:10.680
but,

0:06:10.800,0:06:12.160
I generally, I don't

0:06:12.160,0:06:14.620
think mean things about people, generally?

0:06:14.620,0:06:18.160
And I would absolutely hate not being able to speak again, so,

0:06:18.160,0:06:19.120
the first one.

0:06:19.120,0:06:20.360
If worse came to worse, I'd always just

0:06:20.360,0:06:22.400
lock myself in my apartment and make YouTube videos,

0:06:22.440,0:06:25.320
and edit out the things that I said that were horrible.

0:06:25.320,0:06:27.440
It's better than never having to speak again, I guess.

0:06:27.440,0:06:28.680
"If you were to become an animal,

0:06:28.680,0:06:30.260
a) based on your personality,

0:06:30.400,0:06:31.680
and b) at will,

0:06:31.680,0:06:33.220
which animals would they be and why?

0:06:33.220,0:06:37.800
Talk about the ways in which your answers differ slash are similar and why."

0:06:38.440,0:06:40.720
Is this like an essay question?

0:06:40.940,0:06:43.940
That was worded in a very, very formal way.

0:06:43.940,0:06:45.300
If I was to become an animal,

0:06:46.060,0:06:47.180
I'd become a cat.

0:06:47.180,0:06:48.300
Cats have it pretty easy,

0:06:48.300,0:06:50.480
they just get to lay around, sleep,

0:06:50.680,0:06:52.680
and eat, lay around in the sun.

0:06:52.680,0:06:54.500
They're also pretty good at surviving,

0:06:54.500,0:06:55.480
they're pretty flexible,

0:06:55.480,0:06:56.640
they can jump high,

0:06:56.640,0:06:58.700
they can jump on things... Yeah, I'd be a cat.

0:06:58.760,0:07:02.360
"What did the man say when you entered the ham contest,

0:07:02.520,0:07:06.180
he said, 'You can't enter, you won last time.'"

0:07:07.020,0:07:08.460
[silence]

0:07:08.940,0:07:10.460
That's not a question.

0:07:10.460,0:07:13.440
"Do you think Hermione should have married Harry or Ron?"

0:07:14.040,0:07:14.720
Ron!

0:07:14.740,0:07:15.780
What the heck!?

0:07:15.780,0:07:17.340
How is this even a question?

0:07:17.340,0:07:19.360
How could Hermione have married Harry?

0:07:19.480,0:07:20.500
Sorry, no.

0:07:20.540,0:07:21.740
No, no, no.

0:07:21.740,0:07:24.500
"If you could have one Adventure Time character come to life, who would it be?"

0:07:24.500,0:07:26.060
Obviously Princess Bubblegum.

0:07:26.060,0:07:27.100
We'd be best friends.

0:07:27.100,0:07:30.560
We'd do all the science together. Plus she's got the most awesome fashion sense.

0:07:30.560,0:07:33.600
"Read something in Hungarian slash say something if you already speak it."

0:07:33.600,0:07:37.600
This person knows that I'm half Hungarian, and I think they're also Hungarian as well.

0:07:37.680,0:07:38.180
Hello!

0:07:38.300,0:07:40.460
Uh, say something in Hungarian.

0:07:40.860,0:07:41.900
*Hol a sapka?*

0:07:42.180,0:07:43.300
*Hol a kalapja?*

0:07:43.300,0:07:45.680
Yeah, that's basically all I know how to say in Hungarian,

0:07:45.680,0:07:48.560
and I'm sure that I pronounced those atrociously, as well,

0:07:48.560,0:07:51.000
feel free to correct me, anyone who's Hungarian.

0:07:51.000,0:07:52.480
"What is your favorite lipstick?"

0:07:53.660,0:07:54.380
[silence]

0:07:54.780,0:07:56.940
This is Aria by Stila Cosmetics.

0:07:56.940,0:07:59.540
"Can you wink? You said you have been practicing."

0:07:59.740,0:08:00.840
Check this out.

0:08:02.020,0:08:02.740
[silence]

0:08:02.900,0:08:06.500
I can also do this now, I've been practicing this, too.

0:08:07.420,0:08:08.380
Wait, wait.

0:08:09.980,0:08:10.700
[silence]

0:08:11.560,0:08:13.920
That was something I couldn't do before either.

0:08:13.920,0:08:16.760
Very exciting, learning to do things with my body.

0:08:16.820,0:08:17.760
And face.

0:08:17.760,0:08:18.680
"Favourite song?"

0:08:18.680,0:08:21.420
Right now, it's Santigold's "Can't Get Enough of Myself."

0:08:21.420,0:08:23.620
Go look it up, right now. Highly recommend it.

0:08:23.620,0:08:25.480
"Also, how many pets have you had in your life?"

0:08:25.600,0:08:27.120
I've had...

0:08:27.460,0:08:28.280
eight.

0:08:28.400,0:08:29.380
Three cats,

0:08:29.460,0:08:30.320
one dog,

0:08:30.320,0:08:31.500
two hermit crabs,

0:08:31.640,0:08:32.520
and two fish.

0:08:32.520,0:08:35.100
A lot of people want to know about my relationship!

0:08:35.180,0:08:37.580
I do have a boyfriend,

0:08:37.740,0:08:40.320
and he's camera shy,

0:08:40.320,0:08:43.240
and I don't know if he'll ever be on my YouTube channel.

0:08:43.240,0:08:43.740
Sorry.

0:08:43.740,0:08:45.860
If it was up to me, he would be, tomorrow.

0:08:45.960,0:08:48.200
But, it's not up to me,

0:08:48.200,0:08:49.300
he doesn't really wanna be...

0:08:49.300,0:08:51.240
I've been working on it though,

0:08:51.240,0:08:54.960
he's... sometimes he's been like, "Yeah, maybe sometime in the future."

0:08:55.080,0:08:56.040
So, [clicks]

0:08:56.040,0:08:57.540
Maybe you'll see him one day.

0:08:57.540,0:09:00.120
You can see a couple of photos of him on my Instagram account though,

0:09:00.120,0:09:03.920
if you're just dying with curiosity to find out who he is, though.

0:09:03.980,0:09:05.480
"Moose or meese?"

0:09:06.760,0:09:08.400
Uhhhhhhhh.....

0:09:09.800,0:09:10.500
Moose?

0:09:10.500,0:09:12.320
I have a couple questions about ethical clothing,

0:09:12.380,0:09:12.880
so,

0:09:12.880,0:09:16.660
"Tips on how to source your clothing ethically?" and "Favourite brands?"

0:09:16.660,0:09:18.860
I've actually written a couple of resources about this,

0:09:18.920,0:09:20.460
which I'll link in the description box below,

0:09:20.480,0:09:22.400
which you can find on my blog.

0:09:22.500,0:09:25.880
I have both a letter that I responded to about ethical clothing,

0:09:26.120,0:09:27.300
and also,

0:09:27.300,0:09:29.080
an ethical clothing directory.

0:09:29.080,0:09:30.440
So you guys should go check them out.

0:09:30.440,0:09:33.560
"Would you rather be a piece of corn for one day of the year,

0:09:33.560,0:09:35.300
so that you would live like a corn and

0:09:35.300,0:09:37.140
and you could get digested but not die,

0:09:37.140,0:09:38.960
or be invisible for one day of the year,

0:09:38.960,0:09:42.780
but you have to be completely naked to be completely invisible,

0:09:42.780,0:09:45.320
because only your body becomes invisible?"

0:09:45.540,0:09:47.540
Obviously the invisible one.

0:09:47.540,0:09:49.220
I don't care about being naked,

0:09:49.220,0:09:51.260
and no one would be able to see me 'cause I'm invisible,

0:09:51.280,0:09:52.760
so no one would be able to see that I'm naked

0:09:52.760,0:09:56.100
so obviously the invisibility one, that would be awesome.

0:09:56.100,0:09:57.460
I don't wanna be a piece of corn.

0:09:57.460,0:10:00.080
"What is the hardest part about living with a chronic illness?"

0:10:00.300,0:10:02.460
You guys wanted to get deep, huh?

0:10:02.460,0:10:05.180
I guess the toughest part is that, it's...

0:10:05.300,0:10:06.580
it's always there.

0:10:06.580,0:10:09.020
Like, it affects me every single day.

0:10:09.020,0:10:11.820
I can't just have a day where I wake up and I'm not sick.

0:10:11.820,0:10:13.660
And things are always coming up because of it,

0:10:13.700,0:10:17.860
I actually started trying to film this Q and A about a month ago,

0:10:18.180,0:10:18.800
um,

0:10:19.020,0:10:20.180
and then.

0:10:20.180,0:10:26.720
as I was talking, I actually stopped being able to breathe properly, and ended up at the emergency room.

0:10:27.040,0:10:28.880
The things I do for you guys!

0:10:28.880,0:10:31.880
But that ended up being a side-effect of a medication I take

0:10:32.000,0:10:34.180
to stop me dying from my illness.

0:10:34.180,0:10:36.780
It's just something I have to deal with, all the time.

0:10:36.780,0:10:38.920
Um, if you actually wanna know what

0:10:38.920,0:10:40.920
it's like to live with a chronic illness,

0:10:40.920,0:10:44.280
this YouTuber Hot Pink Sun makes some really, really awesome videos

0:10:44.280,0:10:45.880
about disability and chronic illness.

0:10:45.880,0:10:47.320
And you should go watch them.

0:10:47.320,0:10:50.100
"If you had to choose a superpower, which would you pick?"

0:10:50.440,0:10:52.260
The ability to stop time.

0:10:53.200,0:10:54.080
Definitely.

0:10:54.080,0:10:56.580
I've thought about this a lot, in the past.

0:10:56.580,0:10:59.740
"If you could only make one DIY for the rest of your life, what would it be?"

0:10:59.740,0:11:02.540
Now, I thought this was gonna be a harder question to answer, but

0:11:02.540,0:11:03.380
[laughs][br]T-shirts!

0:11:03.420,0:11:05.960
I really like making t-shirts!

0:11:05.960,0:11:10.260
At the moment, I've been making a lot of cute crop t-shirts to wear,

0:11:10.260,0:11:12.640
and putting different prints on them,

0:11:12.640,0:11:14.680
and doing contrasting ribbing, and...

0:11:15.660,0:11:16.340
[sigh]

0:11:16.340,0:11:18.700
That's a tough question though, I'd get really sick of it.

0:11:18.700,0:11:21.760
But, if I had to, I have to choose one, it'd be t-shirts.

0:11:21.760,0:11:26.080
"Would you rather be a planet, or the universe itself, controlling everything and everyone?"

0:11:26.240,0:11:27.140
Oh, man.

0:11:27.140,0:11:29.980
Well, if I was a planet, I'd just be a hunk of rock, so...

0:11:30.860,0:11:33.260
I guess the universe?

0:11:33.260,0:11:37.260
That's a lot of pressure. I get to control everything though.

0:11:37.480,0:11:39.800
Actually, I like the sound of that!

0:11:39.800,0:11:42.100
"What part of clothes making do you hate the most?"

0:11:42.100,0:11:46.580
This used to be cutting out the fabric, until I got myself a rotary cutter.

0:11:46.580,0:11:49.140
Now cutting out fabric's really easy, so,

0:11:49.140,0:11:52.440
I actually really like all the parts of clothing making,

0:11:52.500,0:11:53.400
a lot now.

0:11:53.460,0:11:57.520
If you hate cutting like I did, don't suffer for four years,

0:11:57.640,0:11:58.740
like I also did.

0:11:58.740,0:12:00.900
Get yourself a rotary cutter and a cutting mat,

0:12:00.900,0:12:03.300
those two things are amazing and will make your life so much easier.

0:12:03.300,0:12:06.160
"If you had a useless superpower what would it be?

0:12:06.160,0:12:08.920
For example: the power to fly, but only in enclosed spaces,

0:12:08.920,0:12:11.200
or the power to sneeze garlic. It must be useless."

0:12:11.200,0:12:13.600
I don't know, I think that the power to sneeze garlic

0:12:13.700,0:12:15.220
would be useful in some situations.

0:12:15.580,0:12:18.020
Like, if you run out of garlic, and,

0:12:18.020,0:12:19.900
you had a recipe that needed garlic,

0:12:19.900,0:12:22.540
who else is gonna be able to sneeze garlic?

0:12:22.540,0:12:23.720
You would save the day!

0:12:23.820,0:12:24.320
So,

0:12:24.380,0:12:28.620
in a similar vein, I would have the power to change my lip colour

0:12:28.640,0:12:30.080
to whatever I wanted

0:12:30.140,0:12:30.900
it to be.

0:12:30.900,0:12:32.180
Just using my mind.

0:12:32.620,0:12:36.820
Not 100 percent useless, but pretty useless as a superpower.

0:12:36.820,0:12:38.440
I think that fits your criteria.

0:12:38.440,0:12:40.980
"What's your favourite protein slash protein complex?"

0:12:41.020,0:12:41.680
Okay,

0:12:41.680,0:12:44.220
so this will make sense to about 2 percent of the audience,

0:12:44.400,0:12:47.040
my favorite protein is Leghemoglobin.[br][ringtone]

0:12:47.780,0:12:49.100
Stop texting me!

0:12:49.380,0:12:50.420
Oh, it's Katie.

0:12:50.420,0:12:52.200
Oh! She wants to hang out tomorrow, okay!

0:12:52.200,0:12:54.480
Now I'm gonna try and make the non-science-y people

0:12:54.760,0:12:57.560
in my audience get interested in this.

0:12:57.560,0:12:59.160
It's my favourite because

0:12:59.160,0:13:03.060
two totally different species provide both components of the protein,

0:13:03.260,0:13:06.840
and it only works once both species are together.

0:13:06.840,0:13:08.780
So it's a protein that carries

0:13:08.780,0:13:11.120
nitrogen and oxygen around plants,

0:13:11.120,0:13:14.380
but it only exists when bacteria which are living in the plant's roots

0:13:14.380,0:13:16.100
in a symbiosis, are in the plant

0:13:16.100,0:13:18.040
and the plant produces the other half,

0:13:18.180,0:13:19.140
and together,

0:13:19.200,0:13:23.600
the protein comes together to make a thing that's similar to hemoglobin,

0:13:23.600,0:13:25.680
which carries oxygen around blood,

0:13:25.680,0:13:26.620
if you're a human.

0:13:26.620,0:13:27.740
Which I'm assuming you are.

0:13:27.740,0:13:30.740
So, the protein can only exist if there's bacteria living in the plant's roots.

0:13:30.740,0:13:34.360
Also another reason why I love microbiology, because that's so freakin' cool.

0:13:34.360,0:13:36.340
"Do you have any other talents aside from sewing?"

0:13:36.340,0:13:38.160
I like to think I'm pretty good at science,

0:13:38.160,0:13:39.680
I also know how to drum,

0:13:39.680,0:13:41.360
and I'm pretty good at Scrabble.

0:13:41.360,0:13:43.100
"Do you believe that there's life on other planets?"

0:13:43.260,0:13:44.900
Yes, I do, definitely.

0:13:44.900,0:13:46.920
I don't think that aliens have ever visited Earth,

0:13:46.920,0:13:49.220
but, I think that there's so many planets

0:13:49.220,0:13:52.620
in the universe, that there just has to be life, somewhere.

0:13:52.620,0:13:55.520
"Have you ever seriously injured yourself with a sewing machine?"

0:13:55.820,0:13:58.760
Yeah, I once, while I was sewing, I

0:13:58.760,0:14:01.360
got my finger wedged underneath the foot somehow,

0:14:01.460,0:14:05.380
and drove the- the- s- the needle right through my finger.

0:14:05.380,0:14:06.480
Okay, not right through,

0:14:06.480,0:14:08.900
but it, uh, cracked my fingernail, and

0:14:08.920,0:14:11.080
went into the flash underneath.

0:14:11.660,0:14:12.860
Pretty horrific.

0:14:12.860,0:14:16.760
Be careful while sewing, guys, it's actually an extreme sport!

0:14:16.760,0:14:19.200
Don't know if you knew that about sewing, but it is!

0:14:19.200,0:14:19.700
Okay,

0:14:19.840,0:14:21.240
I mean, yeah

0:14:21.340,0:14:22.060
uh, that's

0:14:22.060,0:14:24.480
that's all the questions I feel like answering.

0:14:24.620,0:14:26.380
So, thanks for asking them,

0:14:26.380,0:14:28.920
thanks for being lovely and supportive human beings,

0:14:29.020,0:14:31.460
and, I'll see you all for my next video!

0:14:31.540,0:14:32.040
Bye!
