I can be 100% guaranteed to have at least four novels, two math textbooks, a couple of notebooks, and some writing implements.  Always.

Holy crap, why did I not start watching One Punch Man earlier? This is the best thing.

I don't always crash onto an island, but when I do, I'm always wearing pants.

That's pretty wise. I always try and do the same.

I'm also scared of escalators, so if you ever see a tiny girl charging up three flights of stairs with a 30-40 lb suitcase, that's probably me.

Books are kind of like my security blanket, I guess.  I read a lot.  I used to bring 10-12 books with me on vacation, and end up bringing another 10 home after raiding the used bookstores around wherever we went.

The most books I have ever packed include 7 books of the Gotrek and Felix series along with the first 9 Sword of Shannara books. I was going on vacation for two weeks and decided to go on a series binge.

I'm also scared of escalators, so if you ever see a tiny girl with ludicrous amounts of hair charging up three flights of stairs with a 30-40 lb suitcase riding a giant eagle, that's probably me.

There, fixed that for you.

I don't see 'ludicrous' amounts of hair. Just long hair that's really thick/frizzy.

Loyalty is already pledged, sorry.
Though, the more I look, the more I realize I have way more hair than her. Aha! Maybe I can at least call this one a tie.
