I haven’t ever been punched, but I have been deliberately attacked by a sandwich. never close my eyes on roller coasters. My race is human. Sometimes I believe in ghosts. I always believe in faeries. (No seriously, I do. I do.) Reading tabloids isn’t beneath me. I’m proud to say that I know a thing or two about politics. I’ve always wanted to sing in the rain, but I have never gotten the chance. Seeing my parent’s wedding pictures makes me cry. Titanic has never made me cry. I wish I knew more about…well, everything. I hope I am interesting on paper. & I *really* hope I’m interesting off paper
