Favorite Quote:
"Never let a little thing like total humiliation get between you and a good time."


i speak to you as i am:

a girl, aged sixteen, and an absolute anomaly

i say this is the truth, i truly do, and accept it

who cares if i dare to dream different?

who cares if i seldom strive for success, but instead seek silence—

silence of the judges who judge and the gossiping gossips?

i am as i am:

my master, my servant

and to all those who say otherwise:

i pity your pettiness
