I take pride in being different, being 100% me. It took a very long time to get to being that way. Because of all the bullying &things that I've been through, I used to be ashamed of myself. But, no more. I am a unique person, completely myself.
I’m a self proclaimed nerd. I love playing video games & reading.
I collect a bunch of weird things, like the cool pull-tabs from energy drinks, or Pokemon cards.
I love creating things. Drawing, coloring, making jewelry or a set on Polyvore, whatever. If I’m making something, I’m happy.
Ever since I was younger, I’ve had this intense fascination with the universe.
I love looking online for quotes. If I find one that I love, I write it on my wall, above my bed.
I've been through alot in the short time that I've been alive. Including being severely bullied for eight years.
I have a lot of dreams, including going to college, seeing New York, &making a difference in this world.
I've moved around a lot because my dad was in the Air Force. My family &I even lived in Germany for a while!!
Being a military kid has given me a whole different look on the things most people in this country take for granted, like wearing what I want, even though I'm a girl.
Music is very important to me.
I love underdog movies. Because, I can always relate to the underdog &seeing them succeed, gives me hope for myself.
I have a huge sweet-tooth. Candy is my complete weakness, especially chocolate.
Family is the most important thing to me. Without my family, I wouldn't be who I am today, let alone even still here.
I like to laugh, a lot. I believe that laughter can make everything better, even in the toughest situations.
Because of my size, I've always found it hard to find good-looking &good fitting clothes. My moms always said that I should be a fashion designer, because I could really help a girl like me sometime in the future. Because of her faith in me, I've decided to pursue a career in fashion design or graphic arts.
Where we live is very rural, to say the least. We are at least an hour away from the closest mall or large store. Which sucks because, in a tiny town of less than 3,000, with nothing to do. Most kids turn to drugs, alcohol, or other unsafe things for fun. But I have my computer, Polyvore, &Tumblr to keep me happy and occupied.
That's just a bit about me. If I were to write more, we'd be here for a VERY long time.
